I am here taking care of my elderly >parents or would have left years ago.
How lucky your parents are to have you as a son!! They must be very proud of you. They reared you right, Mack. Your post touched me very deeply.......you have such a sweet soul. I'm sure it will turn out okay for you. We humans always think of the worst case scenarios and fret and fret. Try not to do that to yourself. I bet you are an excellent nurse and considering there is a nurse shortage (in Cincinnati there is ) they are not going to want to get rid of you. >The arresting officer told me that if I had been with a girl, they would >have just sent us home. How true! I know this from first-hand experience. Gay men have it so much rougher than gay women. (I'm sure a big understatement) To my knowledge I've never been discriminated against because of who I'm sleeping with. I guess I would classify myself as bi-sexual? When I was in my early twenties (late at night) I was getting it on with a girl in car in a parking lot. We were both higher than kites and kissing passionately, oblivious to are surroundings. Well we were not alone.......a police officer had been watching us. How long? I don't have the slightest clue? (getting his jollies off, I suppose) He tapped on the window told us something to the effect to break it up and this parking lot is off limits after closing hours. Embarrassed and humiliated, to say the least. This cop could have arrested us on several violations.......but he chose not to. We had lots of dope in the car and on are persons too. (it's funny, i had not thought about this for years,buried it I guess) Two gay men in this scenario? Searched, handcuffed, arrested.......public indecency, and God knows what else!! . Please be thinking of me as I face my own struggle. I needed to vent >and you have allowed me to do so. Thank you. The world needs you, Mack, your sweetness.....stay well. And vent and vent, whenever you need to. Bree > >Mack _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com/intl.asp
