High res photos from my charity event on Monday finally got delivered to me. Here's me n my guy
You look great together. And you look very tall
Coffee is gross. That is all.
You're not old! Jeez, people these days.
But I know what you mean. I think a had a conversation with a friend about that a month back.

as if that's stopped anyone.
i am australian though, my perspective is warped.
coffee is nice, booze is nice, i have a boyfriend now and life is odd/wonderful.
Your right. It really should be just for me.
yeah he is right
Thanks guys!
It's old for a first relationship. =/ Haha. I started to have guys regard me as immature and commitment-phobic when I told them I hadn't had one yet. Tough not to feel like you're broken when people say that directly to you.
6' - I feel a little dwarfed in Toronto's gay community. Tons of guys over 6', lol.
On the right! And yeah, it's the 3-month culmination of an Event Management course (part of a larger postgrad program in Corp. Communications and PR). We partnered with a venue and Free the Children and threw the event. We're not talking staggering amounts of money raised here, being an event run by students and all, but I think all told we had around 120 guests and raised around $1800 for the charity after our expenses.
I was impromptu host (we decided at the last minute, lol) - more photos?
This first one is my team and I; I'm glad I convinced us all to dress in blue (our event theme/color) -- really popped!

I think there's quite a few people in a similar boat. I didn't have my first relationship until 24. And yeah, it definitely feels weird going through all the things most people first have in high school so much later.

Shorty.
Right?? I mean, it's almost socially crippling (I exaggerate, but you know what I mean) to be learning these emotional lessons at this stage, instead of back then with everyone else.
Who knows, I might be going through pivotal emotional lessons at a time when my career needs to be my focus, and I'm competing with others who have all those lessons under their belt already. It's a bizarre vice to potentially have near age 30.
I'm hoping it's not too crippling since I'm focusing more on my career as well. You at least have a boyfriend.
But it is a concern of mine from time to time as well. I don't even have any valuable advice or insight for it.

You haven't practiced in the meantime?

6' (about 1.83m) is short in Toronto? Oh my. Are they giants?
That place is beyond The Wall
Depends on the type. I can't drink black coffee to save my life, but if it's light coffee like a cappuccino? Easy-peasy for me.

All of these spammers on grindr are starting to get annoying.
Less annoying than the fact that this town has like no gay people, though

I've tried to avoid gay subjects in front of my family because first of all, I don't want to give away my orientation, and secondly I don't think they would understand very easily. So I was pretty surprised when my older brother was talking to me about this conversation he was having at work. He said he was talking to a friend about how they both agreed that homosexuality is a choice so he then proceeded to ask my opinion about it. I think I hid my inner rage at their declarations so I tried to explain this without sounding partial so I used general psychology knowledge.
I basically explained to him about how there is no choice in our orientations, the difference between gender identity, biological sex, and sexual orientation, etc. You know, all that jazz. I was ridiculously scared of how he would respond because I have heard him say a lot of homophobic things before, but he took a second to think about it and said I convinced him. That was truly alleviating. I didn't come out to him, but now I know he would probably take it better than anyone else in my family. Which is a huge burden off my shoulders if it ever comes to that.

hahahha "Did Tilda Swinton eat a pig or something" omg
I love it when someone starts off a discussion with a certain viewpoint and after actually listening to the other side they're actually willing to say "Yeah you're right" or "I never thought about it that way." It's pretty cool that your brother actually turned around after your talk. I had a somewhat similar experience with my sister regarding the same subject. In my family, gay subjects only get really awkward if my mom and dad are in the room because they already know about me, and it's just a tough subject for them. They get really quiet, and I can tell they just want to move on to a different subject. With every other family member, I kinda like it when discussion turns to gay topics because it gives me an opportunity to really see what they think, and how they would react if they were to know. I don't think there's much danger of me outing myself. I wouldn't get all passionate about it, and if I say nothing it wouldn't really be suspicious because I tend to be indifferent about everything.
I always feel the shortest way to answer the "sexuality is a choice" stance is to ask people when they chose to be straight. Usually that's a pretty simple way to address it.
Good on you for talking to him about it though.
It's weird. I read the first two books and I have no idea what's going on in the video.
I still enjoyed it. Would probably prefer this summary over the actual show.

Maybe because the current season of the show is based on the third book which you haven't read ohmygodwhyhaven'tyoureadityet?
I hate when all the Canadians in the thread have their Inside Baseball talk.
I just looked it up and it's one of those awful barbecue sauce slathered meat establishments. Any food that gets your hands dirty is automatically bad.

Did he just try to make "fetch" a thing?
Similar situation, only my brother actually knows. At first he was kind of a jerk about it, but after he got out of highschool he started being way more considerate. If anything, we have a better relationship now than we did before he found out. Maybe siblings are just more understanding of these kinds of things than parents?

A lot of people use "fetch". Despite Regina's best efforts, Gretchen actually made it happen.
I also come from a religious family. Gets pretty tough since they are so set in their ways. And yeah my brother is pretty awesome. If he was adamantly against gay people, I'd probably be broken.
Thanks :3. I'd feel really uncomfortable talking about this stuff with my parents because I know their stance. After convincing my bro, he wanted to bring it up to our mom and I was like no way in hellfire.

I wonder about this too. It doesn't seem possible.
Maybe it's a symptom of being geeks?

Damn son, hold on to that boy.
Oh, well this series is just booking it along, isn't it?
And I haven't read anything else because I stopped reading series that aren't finished. I'll pick it up again if it stays relevant in the next nine or ten years it takes for Martin to stop milking it.
are you 5'5 too (like me, I mean)?

Booking along. I see what you did there.
