In Greece, the military service is something that every man has to go through.
When i reported for duty, i met this guy…. he was my sergeant. You wouldn't say that he was attractive, but, man, sure he held my heart captive.
I serviced 9 whole months in the region of Evros with him but i never dared to reveal my feelings for him.
The enviroment, plus the fact that he was straight and fallen for a slut of a woman, forced me to hide my feelings for him and we remain friends until we were seperated since he was transfered into another unit in Greece. My heart was utterly shattered.
It was then that i realised that i am gay
Ten years later i learned that he was married and he had a daughter with the bitch!
I also have a very strong connection with my mother. She eventually discovered that i am gay, from me. It was a period that i do not want to remember. She didn't accepted it right away and certainly not easily.
As the time passed, she realised that i was her son no matter what and how much i really care for her that she managed to accept it and now she says that she is very proud of me (as i am for her). The same thing went for my younger brother. But surely, it is a storm that i was glad that has passed!
As for my father....well, i suppose that he wanted daughters in the first place because i haven't heard a single nice thing from his mouth to begin with.
As you can probably found out, my coming out was a disastrous and unpleasant experience but as far as the majority of my family is concerned, things turned to be fairly fine.
As for him? Well, let's just say that i was one of unlucky ones that realised their sexual orientation with a straight guy! :cry2: :cry2:
