I have always wanted to start a site. I wanted to talk about my life but I contemplated. Then I met Jay. Then I wanted to start a site for us. But I procrastinated. More than two years later, this is what I have now, a humble beginning. Just like any couples, we have been through many good and hard times together and this is one reason what this site is for: to put down our story in writing. So that this blog will witness our existence and hopefully we can flip through the archives one day and laugh at the silly things we did and be touched by Jay's heroic deed. Hi, I am Kay, we are boyfriends and this is the our story.
I'm Kay
Male. Smart and sentimental. 26yo. Enjoys movies (and porn) and reality shows. Sleeper. Uptight. Likes Robbie Williams. Has been to Singapore. Ogles at men. Just wants to be happy. Prefers to wear boxers. Selfless.
I'm Jay
Male. Sexy and studly. 29yo. Loves sushi and everything meat. Swimmer. Forgetful. Likes House music. Travels world over. Ogles at Kay. Want to be rich but not necessary famous. Likes not to wear underwear. Selfish.
After a rough day at work, I just want to get back, take a good shower and lie down on my bed. Sometimes people can just be plain rude and in my case, my customers. I work in customer service and I see them everyday.
But some are really pain in the ass. As terrible as they can be, my job is to provide the best support possible and offer alternatives if there is no solution. I always believe that customers's requests should be fulfilled whenever possible. Someone said that it is easier to lose a customer than to find one. How true. When I have done my best but still not satisfactory to the customer I can only hope he will accept my offer and advise. Anyway, work aside... I musn't bring it back home with me.
When I got home it suddenly became too quiet for no reason. Everything seemed to stand still and silent. I guess when you've had a tough day and emotionally drained, all you want is to snug into your bed with your someone you love.
I looked through the window into the dark sky lit by the moon and wondered what Jay could be doing. On the bed waiting to fall asleep I began thinking past memories of Jay and I. Sweet vivid memories.
Jay once surprised me when we were in bed during our casual date when we first met and he leaned over to whisper 'I love you'. When I turned to look at him, he blushed.
At another time, out of no reason, Jay bought me a card which he had scribbled 'I love you' all over the inside of the card.
When he first celebrated my birthday he took all the trouble to commute to town to get me an ice-cream cake and when I got to his place in the evening, he pretended to be busy while I was taking my bath and quickly took out the cake but only to find it has melted. He panicked and had no choice but to present it to me anyway. No matter how disfigured the cake was, I think it's the thought that counts!
I was smiling at the moon. If Jay was looking at the moon too, he'd be smiling at me too.

That is such a sweet story.
I remember when I first said those words to my partner, Steve. It was a couple of weeks after we'd been dating. I'd gone away for the weekend with my friends and I spent every moment thinking about him. It was a nice weekend away but Sunday came and we headed back to Toronto just after lunchtime. I called Steve as soon as I got home to see if he was free. He was. I took a shower, put on my favorite clothes and went over to see him. We hung out, talked and the world seemed to return to a state of serenity. I had never been truly happy before I met Steve; I thought I had, but with Steve, I realize that all those other times were something else. We were sitting on his couch; we'd been kissing and I suddenly stopped looked in his eyes and said, "Steve, I have something I have to tell you..." I had never told anyone this before and I was afraid what would happen if I told him this and he didn't feel the same way. But I decided that I didn't want to be afraid anymore. "I love you," I said.
Mike- Yes. I can totally relate to your story. I'm glad that Jay made the first move like you did with Steve. Here's hoping the best for your wedding. Cheers!
This must be the worst reply but i have never properly in love. I must be unlucky in love at this point. I am 23 now. I have been dateless for the past 3 years. Not that i am ugly looking or whatsoever. *sic* I just don't find anyone who likes me for who i am. I know when the time comes, it's gonna be a big surprise. I have so much love to be poured out. I can't wait, but i have to...
Kev - I was never properly in love too. I wasn't seeking love when I used to flirt around, meeting up guys, etc. But the day I met Jay, he showed me what love is. Just by being yourself, you are doing the right thing. I think it takes a little this and that for two to fall in love with each other. Your time will soon come and you don't have to look far. Who knows Mr.Right is all the while right in front of you? (and I don't mean that sexy actor you have on your desktop wallpaper :P)
