    • About Me

      I have a sarcastic (and I think funny) sense of humor. Always trying to pull myself/others up by the bootstraps. I love to laugh; however, it doesn't take much for me to wind up in the emotional crapper. Oh yeah, I'm very direct with my expressions. I've been in my current same-sex relationship for 8 years. We love each other, but there is a high degree of tension, and I tend to check-out mentally and emotionally. There is no physical aspect to my relationship, which adds to the tension.
