Welcome

I decided to create this blog, yes another one.  Some of you may know me as for creating blogs and using them for different things.  This blog is going to be about my relationship.  I used to live in Ireland until I returned to the United States year 2000 thinking I was going to be alone, which is why I returned to the US so I could find someone.  Why did I return to the US and thought I was going to be alone?  Well when you are a gay man in a small town and hiding this secret to the public it can be really hard to find someone to connect.  I figured if I return to the US, I would find someone.  I had found quite a few relationship but they all turned bad between verbal abuse, physical abuse, psychotic, and being used. 

Right now I am in a 5 year relationship with a guy name Craig.  It will be 6 years we will be together in September.  Some of you know Craig being a very kind hearted person just like myself.  We basically live a normal life just like everybody else with our 3 cats:  Bella, Augustina, and Buster.  This September will be our 6^th year on being together. 

I was living in the hell heated state of Arizona at the time when I met Craig while he had lived in Vancouver Washington just over the bridge of Portland Oregon.  We met online through one of the social websites.  I had talked to him before like two summers ago that time but thought he wasn’t interested in me.  But I was surprised we started talking again and even used Yahoo Messenger to talk basically every night on it as well as talking on the telephone.   People that I had talked to in Portland Oregon knew Craig so I asked them about him and they told me he was a really nice guy.  You would think that would learn my lesson on taking risks on relationships.  I even gave him my credit card number to order pizza one time because he was hungry and had no money.  I was building that trust after several times if he could use the card…SO THAT WAS A GOOD THING.

After about 5 months of talking on the phone, emailing, and Yahoo messaging him, we planned on being together.  The plan was for me to move up to Washington.  I asked him when he would like me to move up there and suggested that November (at the time was August) which was around my Birthday the perfect gift.  He thought that felt a little too long, so my friend Dusty who came from Washington at the time because of his work insisted on booking my flight and asked me when I wanted to go because he was going to pay for it.  I thought that was really nice of him to do so.  So I told him it would be September 15^th.

 Craig was really pleased when I told him I got a sooner flight.
