Got this off McDreamy and thought it was worth a go. I've also got nothing else to do as our systems are still down at work...
1. Were you named after anyone? No. My parents just liked the name.
2. When did you last cry? Last Wednesday night. I went out for a couple of drinks with my friend Jacquie and we got talking about my parents and the fact that they haven't spoken to me since I told them I was gay. Not a good look when you're a 36 yr old man, bursting into tears in the middle of Bar 333 on George St.
3. Do you like your handwriting? Yes, I do quite like it.

Hey we are the same shoe size!! Sorry to hear you parents dont talk to you. Dont know what is worse.. mine talk to me, make me dinner but dont want to know anything about my so called "gay" life. Its like being a half person when I with them. Hang in there Monty.. some point they will come round.
Unfortunately, few people gay or straight have a perfect relationship with their parents. I always believed what I saw on the good old family sitcoms, your parents only wanted you to be happy. My life is more like cutectguy. They want me to be happy but on their terms. I live a lie with them, it's difficult to keep it up sometimes but I know it's the only way that I'll have any relationship with them however superficial it is. We love you Monty, although it's not the same, you're like family to me.
Thankyou for sharing this with us...I always like reading bitz about a person...xoxo
Perhaps it sounds trite and cliche', but it's their loss. I have become so close to my (step)son and cannot imagine life without him now...regardless of whatever revelation he might have for me. Deep down, your folks must miss you too. That bond is strong and will likely bring you back together at some point. You sound like a loving son, and your unwillingness to turn to hatred speaks a lot. Keep hanging in there.
Guys, thank you so much for your kind words. Didn't expect that everyone would comment on just that one particular item but your support is really appreciated. Hugs!
