*laughs* No, not at all. Really, it just... really nice, I guess, to have people out there who can understand. It's not necessarily something I was expecting to find, even online. Sympathy, encouragement, support, sure, but real understanding? Not as much. *HUGS* You guys are this insanely happy inspiration for us, you know that, right?
And yeah, while I am out to all of my very close friends, and even my parents, there's still this sense of... I'm not sure what. Defensiveness, perhaps, to what I say and do. It's a shame, but it's hard not to think that way when it's how society has trained us to react.
Oh good, that's what I was hoping for. Because I kinda feel the same about you guys, to see two people so beautifully in love despite the obstacles, it's encouraging to Tav and I too. And it's really cool to have someone else who can relate to our obstacles and how we deal with them.
