Daily Quotes #1370
So not bringing Jay to the wedding was all about other people. It was nothing about my feelings, or Jay’s feelings, or even Ben and Alison’s feelings. It was the reaction of other people that made me have to act a different way.
Daily Quotes #1369
“Oh my Gawd! No! Definitely not! Get him off!” His eyes opened wide and he paled. He threw a look in my direction before saying to Suresh, “I’m coming! I’m coming! I’m running down the road as we speak.” He grabbed his bag. “I’ve gotta go, Liam! Harry needs me!” And he was gone.
I watched him fly down the footpath, dodging in and out of pedestrians. I shook my head, laughed at the drama, and admired his taut arse in his red jeans. The guy was a complete flake and I was totally in love with him.
Daily Quotes #1367
“I saw in an instant how much you care for him. So he can be as fruity as a Christmas cake if he wants, as long as he is right for you.” John folded his arms across chest with a slight frown. “Unless, of course, he goes for Essendon. I could never like anyone who goes for Essendon.”
- John
Daily Quotes #1366
“So you’ve always known you were gay?” I asked, curious about his ability to live out of the closet.
“Pshaw, man! It’s more like I had to realize that everyone else wasn’t gay.”
Daily Quotes #1365
I just wanted a glance at his outfit to see if I approved or cringed over his style today—I liked the ones that showed off his arse, not that I’m gay or anything.
*
I wasn’t sure if the boys of the ’50s had fake diamond earrings, though. They looked hella-delicious on him. Not that I’m gay or anything.
*
I looked at him, marveling that even up close he looked gorgeous. His lips looked full and totally kissable, and we were standing close enough that if I leaned in some, and he leaned some, our mouths would meet. Not that I wanted to kiss him or anything. I’m not gay.
*
I smiled involuntarily and I am sure I looked like a total dipstick. I could call him Jay. He’d like me to call him Jay. I was going to see him tomorrow.Â
Then I came to a sudden realization. I’m so gay.
Daily Quotes #1364
And missing the first train of the morning also meant I didn’t get to see Jay. But I wasn’t going to think about that. Because I am not gay. I don’t notice other guys; I don’t drool over them; I don’t look forward to seeing their handsome face each morning; I don’t dream about them every night; and I definitely don’t get a hard-on thinking about one particular face. Nope! Not gay here at all.
Much.
Denial, denial, denial.
Joey: Yeah! Yeah! I mean I’m sorry, I wish I can take everybody, but y’know Chandler always supported my career. He’s paid for acting classes and head shots and stuff and well this will be my way of paying you back. Chandler: So you’re never actually going to pay me back? The One Where Rachel is Late Joey & Chandler
Daily Quotes #1363
He was mine. He was mine to love and cherish, and that was a goddamn big responsibility. Loving him was something I never wanted to fail at, because there had never been anyone more special in my life.
Daily Quotes #1362
I was about to open my mouth and demand to know the reason why. If she was going to mention the G-A-Y word, I was going to throw a tantrum that would make Elsa’s ice castle look like a miniature.
And I really needed to stop watching Disney.
Daily Quotes #1361
I ran my hands over the fluffy wool and checked out the pink cartoon sheep embroidered into the corner. The sheep looked so happy, it was suspicious. What did a pink sheep have to be so happy about?
Wasn’t he afraid that being pink made him a sheep to be ridiculed? Didn’t all the other sheep tease him and hurt him for not being white?
It must be hard to be a pink sheep in among all those white sheep. Being different, yet still the same. Being the same, but different.
I stroked the sheep’s furry little body and sympathized with him. Being different from everyone else was tough, and this little pink sheep was courageous for being pink and proud of it.
In everything else, having a pink sheep would be just like having a white sheep.
Just like having a gay son would be just like having a straight son.
Just like being gay was no different from being straight. Didn’t I have a job, pay taxes, own a house, watch football, eat a burger, and cheat at Monopoly—just like a straight person? Didn’t I love, laugh, and live—just like a straight person? The only difference was that I went home with another gay man at the end of the night. And we didn’t hurt a soul by that action.
Daily Quotes #1360
I ground my teeth together and muttered, “Because I don’t want to look gay. If I hang around the femme guys, I might start acting like them. And then people would know.”
“Know what?” Patrick asked gently.
I clasped my hands together tightly. “They’d know that I’m gay too.”
Patrick hesitated for a heartbeat, then said, “But you are.”
“I know I am. But I don’t want people to treat me differently because of it.”
Patrick’s voice was almost a whisper as he asked me, “What people, mate? Because the only people you need to worry about are your friends and family. And we already know you’re gay.”
That made me stop and think. What “people” was I afraid of?
Daily Quotes #1359
Yes. Davo, that person I thought I knew, changed because it was Lee in front of him. I felt like that man was someone different. An alien had invaded my body and was making me do and think things I’d never thought possible.
I knew why the man named Davo had changed. Because the man named Lee had shown him something different.
Daily Quotes #1358
Had I really gushed? Like a girl?
I stopped. Like a girl? You know, I really was a dick. Here was I telling Jake not to dress his daughter in pink just because she’s a girl and that’s stereotyping. Yet here I was telling myself not to “act like a girl.” It was stereotyping too.
What’s good for the goose is good for the gander.
What goes around, comes around.
You reap what you sow.
Oh, yes. There were a hundred sayings about being a hypocrite, maybe because we all do it.
Daily Quotes #1357
“The cross-dressing? It’s not really something I do too often in public.”
“No?”
“No. A couple of parties where my friends know me, sometimes a quick shopping trip out in my finery. It’s not a big thing in my life.”
“But you’re so pretty,” I blurted out, then flushed a deep red as I realized what I had said.
Lee’s answering smile lit up his face. “Yeah?”
Daily Quotes #1356
I peered out of the corner of my eye, trying not to stare as I observed Patrick come up behind Jake. With one hand he encircled Jake’s waist, and with the other he cupped Maxine’s head where she rested on Jake’s shoulder, amazing me with the accuracy of his touch. Even blind, he knew exactly where the two most precious objects in his life were. I found myself envying them.
Love.
