Love with Restrictions...

It's crazy how one can starve for something like love. Then, when you actually find it, people in your community tell you that it's wrong. Does love come with restrictions? I met somebody that was different from any gu y I have ever talked to. They listened to me, actually LISTENED. They gave me the attention I wanted without leaving me with the feeling that I was a piece of meat. I fell in love with that person, but I was too ashamed to show it to anybody but that person. All because the person I loved was the same sex as me, a chick.
I got that same butterfly feeling that you get when you know you like someone alot.
I got excited everytime I heard her ringtone.
The thought of her made me smile.
Her name made me happy and her voice made everything all right.
But how could it be soo wrong!!!!
Is it so wrong to love whomever you want? You cant hide your emotions or push them to the back and ignore them, but that will only make things worst. I started to think about what my family might think. What society might think. I pushed her away, thinking that was the best thing for the both of us. She wouldnt have to worry about me being ashamed of her, and I wouldnt have to worry about people's snickers and judging eyes.

...I was wrong. All I did was hurt her and myself. I feel like a coward, and now I will never know what could've been because I was too afraid to face society and it's stupid restrictions........

If I could give anyone advice, it would be to love who you want and be who you want, know matter what someone might think. Love has no restrictions.....love has no color or gender restrictions. ....and it's FREE!!!! SO FEEL FREE TO DO WITH IT WHAT YOU PLEASE....I WISH I WOULD HAVE...*[TEAR]*...

the people affect by how society views GLBT people are too often lost in alot of the banter about gay rights. I'm sorry to read your story. But, with every hardship, a leason is learned, right?

I agree with john w connelly jr there is a lesson to be learn. so be happy with the mistakes you made, because you will not do it again.

and stay in there.

Good advice. Are we not granted the freedom of religion? The right to pursue happiness? Who then has the right to tell me I can't be with the person that makes me happiest. Isn't that my right?
Living is easy with eyes closed, misunderstanding all you see.
