Two Boyfriends Doubled Over

I got up at 7am and wrote for a few hours.

I picked Manny up at 11am and took him to the Prahran clinic. He’d done his back and was bent over, nearly in double like an old man.

I visited Tom while Manny was seeing the doctor and having a CT scan.

Manny and I had sex at Manny’ place, when I dropped him back... his back wasn't a problem.

I was home by 3pm. It was cold and wet. Apparently, Mark and Luke came to visit while I was out.

Josh was watching TV and reading.

I disappeared to my computer. Josh started to sing Christian songs, until I told him to shut up about that cunt. I think he may have got peeved when I told him not to whistle either.

Josh went to bed just as it was getting dark.

I think I would have got the same email from Luke, no matter what I had written to him. He seemed to want to waggle his finger at me, no matter what. He didn’t hit a nerve… I thought I was being funny and chatty in my last email. Oh well.

Struck a nerve have I??I wasn’t talking about Friday night fool. I was talking about your choices at the moment, but you’ve always been the queen of denial so I’m not surprised in the slightest by this response. A simple “thanks for the concern”, would’ve been enough. But no, once again you have to detach yourself from the fact that someone actually cares about you – how sad! You’re turning into a stereotype – and not a pretty one.

Luke

I think you’re fantastic!

Christian

Too gutless to tell me what you really think?

Luke

I think you have a gorgeous laugh.

Christian

I’m really bored with this now.

Walking away from every confrontation in life doesn’t make you the bigger man, it just makes you pointless.

Luke
