I feel like I was standing in a room representing my future. There were three doors each representing progress with someone. Guys, or well men for all intents and purposes, stand behind them all. Behind the first was the ever so popular one from my post “He Has a Crush on You.” I could pull openContinue reading “Three Doors”

Man-in-Progress
No one as a child or when you leave home from college ever trains you on how to deal with changes in your life. No one ever tells you that when you make progress people will dislike you for things out of your control – that when you hold people to certain standards, you willContinue reading “Man-in-Progress”
Save Me
I don’t want to be hurt. I really don’t want to be hurt. I know no one wants to be hurt, but I really don’t want to give a guy the power to hurt me. I don’t want anyone to hurt me. It’s taken me too long to make it to this point and I don’t wantContinue reading “Save Me”
I Heard You Were a Wild One!
Sometimes I’m lonely. I think how nice it would be to have a guy to cuddle with. But at what cost? A guy we can just sit together and talk about random, small moments of our day. It could lead to more. “I’m Jarryd and I’m a virgin.” “Hi, Jarryd!” “I’ve just started to be comfortableContinue reading “I Heard You Were a Wild One!”

It Could Happen to You
One day I want to marry a man that makes me want to be a better man. On our wedding day I want to look him in the eye and feel like I won’t find anyone better, because of the bond we have. At times I may feel insecure that he chose to be with me for theContinue reading “It Could Happen to You”
He Has a Crush on You
As time unravels for me to know you more, I come to like what I see on the outside and especially on the inside even more. The validity of this crush is unsubstantiated. Your sexuality is still unproven but I’m sure it works in my favor. Tell me. Just me. That’s all I need. WhileContinue reading “He Has a Crush on You”
Tuxedo Dreams
I’m convinced that if I were straight I would’ve had the most creative ideas for asking a girl out to prom. Would I still be this creative if I was straight? The world will never know. I didn’t think about this until a friend asked for help in asking a girl to prom. He hadContinue reading “Tuxedo Dreams”
Goodbye Teens!
Let’s get ready to kiss those enlightening teenage years where I made naive mistakes goodbye but embrace them in my arms for all the great experiences. We had fun didn’t we! There were some fun nights but also tears. Maybe too many. . . There was love, and there were fights. We gained friends and lost aContinue reading “Goodbye Teens!”
Let’s Show Some Skin
In middle school I realized how unhealthy ketchup and syrup is. I began eating a little healthier. I lost weight. In high school I learned horizontal stripes are not flattering. I became aware of how these things affect physical perception. Freshman year I voiced to others, to strangers, “I’m Jarryd and I’m gay.” Today IContinue reading “Let’s Show Some Skin”
