My Merman

     So I've only been gone from writing for like 3 days and I already feel parched. I really do enjoy writing this blog now. Even though only like 10 people read it, I still honestly enjoy this. I'm sure I've mentioned this before, but this is like an open venue for me to actually speak my mind and not care, nor worry about what other people think. I can yell my emotions and thoughts without it being heard by the people I'd rather not hear it. I can talk about whatever I want, and it doesn't truly matter at all. I can talk about how I love boys and girls, or how I do this or how I do that.

     I love that about this place, it's an open venue to be honest. To share secrets that I can't normally share. I can't stress enough how much this place has in a sense, opened up the air to me. Given me the opportunity to take a full breath of my freedom to speak as I please. Although not yet in real life, eventually I'll get there, and I can't help but thank everyone that's been here and is, and I'm sure will continue to be with me as I move forward to eventually come out of the closet and move progressively towards a more free and open society. Where hopefully I can help the next teen whom comes along looking for help. So basically I just wanted to say thanks out there to all of you.

     Enough of that though; I'll try to get back onto a regular schedule of posting again, although I'm not yet sure about what, but i never am. These posts of mine tend to be spontaneous and eventually fill up on their own. Recently, not much has gone on with me; not even this weekend, it was a more relaxing type weekend. Went to the pool with Paul again. That was fun.

     I know that a lot of gay guys, again, find the big hunky guys cute and hott, but I can't stress enough how adorable Paul is to me, despite his lack of completely toned muscle, etc. He's adorable. I can't think of the words to describe him. He's hot to me. haha. Especially when he's glistening with all those water droplets, I just about drooled all over the place when he took off his shirt. I was soo lucky though, I got peek up his leg, unfortunately, I didn't see much, but I did see much of his thigh, which left much imagination to me about what lay beyond. He was sitting perfectly so that when I angled just right, I probably would have been able to get a peek at the goods, but he moved before i could strategically place myself. Still though, his thigh, is extremely sexy just like everything else about him, haha.

     This whole infatuation I have with him though, is honestly starting to irritate me though, maybe irritate isn't the right word, but I'm not sure how to explain it. Like I love being with him and stuff, but it's so irritating to see something you want so desperately, but I know that it's also hugely possible I may never have it. Sometimes I wish I hadn't fallen so hard for him, I mean everything he does is so attractive to me, and so gorgeous, and funny. It's honestly the worst crush I've ever had.

     You guys are probably tired of me writing about this kid so much, but I don't know how to stop, how would I stop? One of the most interesting things I think, is that i honestly don't have a single picture of him, if you don't count the picture in the year book. I tried to get one once discreetly, while we were at the  beach, i snapped a photo with my cell phone, and lone and behold, that one photo of his perfect, shirtless, wet hair, and his golden skin glistening in the sun, that one very picture gets corrupted somehow. It's almost as if it were a curse, haha, a curse I'd never want to get rid of.

     They say that sailors of old would be distracted by mermaids they saw off the bows of their ships, and that these sailors would jump into the waters following the mermaids into their kingdoms, leaving their ships to doom in the storms above;

Paul is my merman,

I will follow him into the darkness of the sea, only for a glimpse into the kingdom of what could be. I hope the kingdom exists, because if it doesn't, my ship could very well be gone and left without me, or crashed on rocks. It's a risky thing falling for someone whom might be closeted, but might not be. I'm not alone though, whatever happens, he's following me into wherever I decide to go, that counts for something doesn't it? We'll see.

  1. Well its your blog- so you write want you want regardless of if you think your readers are 'tired' of reading ;-)

    In my case- I am not tired. As Ive certainly mentioned before, I (like ALL gay guys in highschool) feel hard in love with a straight guy...umm quite a few actually :-) So for me its fun to hear you describe your feelings. They echo my past, and its interesting for me to reflect like that. Also, the excitement and anticipation is fun! Im excited for you, and I can't wait to see what happens next in the "Sean story".

    So my 'worst' straight crush was on a guy who really looked up to me. He was kind of bi-- like he watched a little gay porn. But he had this machismo thing that precluded him from being honest with himself-- and he loved girls too so... alas. It was really hard for me to 'get over' that. I was open with him, and he with me as well... but in the end it took him moving to really make me get over it. Tho now we are still good friends, and I can genuinely say that I have none of those feelings any more.

    I for one and not over-obsessed with 'hunky' guys- although certainly that's nice :-) I like geeky guys actually...but that's probably because Im a bit of a geek. One thing to note-- and you know this-- I feel in love with someone for looks over brains/personality/compatability and at the time was really happy...for a while...and then I had to keep making excuses to myself. It didn't work out in the long term, and in retrospect I'm glad. It seems like you and paul have really compatible personalities as well. Just be mindful that our animal hormones don't always consider the long term :-)

    Much Love-
    Steve

    P.S. Sorry for always posting a novel...but blog world has been quiet, and I tend to word vomit unrequested advice :-/ Sorry.

  3. Hmmm!!! Who says we all like muscled, 'hunky' types?? Not me!! I'll admit that I like a fit guy, but, that doesn't mean all buffed up, either!! In fact, I tend to like a natural looking guy... The real buffed up ones are sometimes self-obsessed jerks that spend far too much time looking at themselves every time they find a reflective surface!! lol

    I obsessed over a few str8 guys in high school; Almost impossible for a gay kid to like only other gay kids... I'll never forget one... He was an alto sax player in the orchestra, and at the time, I was alternating between the sax and clarinet... He was also a gymnast and had a twin brother that was similarly gifted, but he played the trumpet in our orchestra... Well, I worked out with the sax player in the weight room a few times (I was in other sports) and remember checking him out, trying for the various angles that you describe... lol only, back then, it was all so much more dangerous, but, I couldn't help myself!! He was a sweet guy, and spotted me on the bench press w/o me asking (imagine where my teenage mind took that!!), and, for a while, I thought he was my God sent answer... Sadly, tho, he didn't respond to any of my subtle hints, and I fell into a state of despair over the whole thing, and the work-out sessions were more torture than anything else...

    Well, football season starts, and I was also in the marching band with the twins. One day, the band director tells us that we needed to be fitted for the band uniforms, so he scheduled us, 2 at a time, to go into this walk-in closet type of 'room', and try on the uniforms that came closest to our size, so that we could then take them home for 'adjustments'.
    .. Somehow, I ended up, by pure coincidence, in this closet (insert joke here! lol) with the trumpet, playing twin (Al)... I was trying on my uniform, stripped to my briefs, and I noticed Al starting to blush and smile... I thought I was imagining things, until he started to help me 'fit' the pants and he had his hands inside the waistband, tugging on them and 'helping' me decide if I should try the size lower... I think I must have been blushing; I know I started to tremble and stutter a bit(I was NEVER a stutterer until that moment), and the twin that I had ignored, for God knows what reason, gently caressed my back and then spun me around and hugged me... I wish I could tell you that this started a long and tender relationship, but, it didn't, sadly...I was so freaked out (I was 14 at the time, he was older) that I almost peed my pants!! I remember him saying something like "It's OK, just us guys here!", or something like that, but I was in flight mode!! Oh, what a lost opportunity!!

    Oh well, bottom line kid, you're not alone!! lol luv, tman<3

    PS... You never know from what direction love will come!!!!!
