It is a great word. Shame you mis-spelled my other favorite word: succinct. Which by the way is used incorrectly. "to the point" basically means succinct. Why say it twice?

Diss will now put me on ignore. I'm certain of it.

He had John Edwards on last week and it was really fab. It made me light up; very nice to see John Edwards with all of this depressing **** going on. And last Tuesday Maureen Dowd was on and it was just the greatest thing ever.

Hm. There was no real 'out' thing going on. I was out to a number of my friends, but I still had a girlfriend, mostly for show. So did he. A lot of it was non-verbal. One thing lead to another. And then it was just something that unfolded and took off. There was no talk about it. I was certain if we said anything that would have killed it.
The most I ever said to him about it was when I tossed him that little piece of the heart at the end of a particularly serious night. Then about 2 days before graduation, he walked up to me behind this one building where we always used to meet. I was sitting by myself looking at my own piece of the same heart, which I always had on. I had taken it off and was staring at it and was of course thinking about what the hell I was going to do in two days. I was kind of upset and mad at him - for what I don't know. Probably because I knew it was over. That part of our lives was simply going to be over and there was nothing anyone could do about it. He asked me what I was doing and I remember just shaking my head and refusing to say anything. He saw what I was doing. All I could do was to ask him if he still had it. He knew what I meant. He produced it in a flash and said he had been carrying it with him since the night I gave it to him. I can still see what it looked like and how it caught the light. I reached out and touched it and touched his hand, and I swear to God at that second someone walked around the building and yelled our names. I don't remember who it was. But I do remember feeling like I was caught. We both pulled back our hands and stepped away from each other and everything changed. What happened next ? I have no idea. Don't know. Can't recall. I just know something broke that second. And that I sat against the wall alone until it was very late and very dark and then I walked home by myself.

Damn. Hadn't thought of that in a long time. I forgot all about that day.
And I probably better stop thinking about it.

Oy. Between my missing the other C and using "they're" instead of "their" earlier, I must be losing it. I curse you for pointing that out.

I wanted to hammer the point home.

You can bet your ass. I have no use for the likes of you any longer. Take that missing C and shove it.

Well I KNOW it ain't the sex talk making you sick...

but none of them were what was making me sick...scroll back through the last few pages and you can pretty much guess.

I sensed the presence of an omniscient, ubiquitous monotreme.

That is a whole lot of my favorite words rolled into one sentence.

But I adore you and I don't even really know you. Have mercy on a poor boy like me.

That definitely makes a lot of sense. Sometimes, at that age especially, talking about it, ruins it. You just have to go with it and try not to put too many demands or expectations on it.

Thanks for answering my questions... and I hope I didn't stir up too much sadness or painful memories by asking.

I'd bet that he's wondered about you, too, though, and most likely still has his piece of that heart.

If it's not too too painful, you should try classmates.com...just to see if he has posted any of his information there.....just so you can have closure

Yaye, I'm a-sexual, too!

Oh, wait... you weren't saying that with an Italian accent, were you?

I think that's why it wasn't such a surprise for me, when you came out... or too big of a leap to figure out that you were trying to come to terms with a few things here and there and were acting out a bit.
I knew it was coming one day...but I didn't think it would be so soon. I figured it was going to be years from now and none of us would know about it, most likely. But those were just my predictions.
