Teaching lessons across U.S. Borders


Mr man from Canada is now back in Canada but he wanted to stay in touch so he has a local phone number so we can still talk. Touchingly, he said that I impressed him and made him think twice about a few things we've talked about.

For one he really liked that I showed genuine care about my friends, and secondly...we had this conversation about how some gay people are really over the top with their personalities. He was telling me how he didn't like it when guys were so over the top because he didn't think it was their real personalities and they just do it to put on a show. I asked him what makes him think that, and he said because they're not like that when they're younger or when they're in the closet. I told him that's because they're too busy hiding who they really are when they're younger or in the closet. They don't want to hint to anyone who they really are.

So he thinks I somewhat opened up his eyes a little, and I'm glad to have done it. That's one person touched who's learned a little bit more about life, a bazillion left to go!

Sidenote: He want's me to go and visit him in Canada... that would be amazing... I'm just a little scared that if I do go out there, I won't be coming back!!! hahaha
