I Am a Little Bit of Loneliness, A Little Bit of Disregard

Handful of complaints, but I can't help the fact that everyone can see these scars.

Linkin Park - Faint

So over the past couple weeks I've started to write a few different blogs. Topics have ranged from an update on the neverending drama that surrounds my home to a discourse on the nature of friendship (see some of Steve's blogs if you want to know why). One was going to be about just the latest goings on in my life. But when the time came, I didn't feel like writing them. But now....now something has gone off in my mind and I'm pissed off.

My anger goes out to a variety of people. Some people are close to me, some I don't even know their identities (I know them, I simply don't know which people shared the opinion), honestly people from perhaps all portions and times of my life.

I can't tell you entirely why I've picked this moment to freak out about this, but it seems fitting. So now I welcome you to my discussion on sexuality. I intend to be both blunt and more detailed than in most blogs. Enjoy your stay, refreshments will be after the show.

As it stands right now, I have been single for just over 23 years. You may continue that sentence to its various logical conclusions and likely be accurate. This is generally a fact I don't like to advertise, but you know what, fuck any of you that want to make remarks at this, because I'll tell you this, it isn't for a lack of trying. I can't begin to get into all the reasons, situations, traumas, problems, and whatever other words you want that describe what has occured in my love life, but I can tell you one thing, and this fact is what has led to this blog. Please read this carefully as it may be difficult for some to understand.

I am, always have been, and always shall be, a HETEROSEXUAL.

Now some of you may be wondering what the hell has possessed me to make a statement like that. It's really quite simple. I am sick of the jokes. I am sick of the assumptions. I am sick of the ignorance and stupidity that seem to plague so many people I have known. Jokes are one thing, though those too get old after a while. But when people take things like my lack of relationships, my personality, my voice, my speech patterns, my general demeanor, any number of things (yes, everyone of those examples have been used as 'evidence'), and come to the conclusion that I am gay, well I have to assume that they don't know me at all.

I suppose that all of this............Fuck this, I'm done.
