That's all

Today started off badly blogger world, it must have been a sign of things to come and I wish I'd have taken heed. It was nothing seriously bad to be honest it was my sensitive and protective side coming to the forefront again; but still.............

When I arrived at work I realised I'd forgotten to put my ring on this morning, it's a ring my boyfriend bought me and it's the first time I've ever forgotten to wear it. I felt bare without it like a part of me was missing - I love the ring because it always reminds me of my boyfriend when we're not together and I think it's a great comfort to me. It gives me strength when stuff gets to me I just look at or touch the ring and he's with me, supporting me every step of the way. I got upset with myself too for being so stupid in forgetting to put in on and even considered returning home to rectify my mistake, but I didn't.

The rest of the day well, I just consider myself a normal, everyday kind of guy because that's all I am; if you read through this blog it's nothing special - there's no major life changing stories to be told. It's me going about my day to day life as I've always done, nothing more and nothing less. I share with you all lots of stuff which I don't consider especially interesting and always what I'm comfortable with sharing - that's my one golden rule and I think why I like this form of communication and why I continue to invest a little of my time most days to keep this thing current.

Hence it unsettles me when my private life comes under scrutiny, as it has done at work over the last couple of days, but particularly today. I just don't understand why my colleagues deem my private life to be so interesting that they have this need to go digging for the truth that has already been presented to them. Because my private life is just how I choose to live it - it has no bearing on my work, it's private and should be respected as such and if they choose to ignore my truth and go off in search of some other mystical tale that doesn't even exist then I've no idea what they're hoping to find in me.

I'm sick of the misunderstandings, it was fun at first but the joke has kind of worn thin over time; besides I still do not trust certain colleagues to treat the truth with dignity and respect. I'm just a guy who fancies other guys, who found a boyfriend, who made him happy (and who has just had fantastic sex with him) - it's that simple. I don't function well when my personal life comes under pressure, that's all..........
