On the Prowl
Interesting. my room mate and his boyfriend had another fight last night. Actually, I know what it was. My room mate Joey has alot of issues. The biggest one is that he has panic-anxiety disorder. This cripples him in many ways; the worst of which is in relationships. Over the course of the year and a half that he and his boyfriend Fernando have been together, there have been some bad times and also alot of good times.
Last night, as I heard them go from fighting to making up and being civil, it dawned on me. The reason Joey picks a fight is that its his only way that he knows to make Fernando tell and show him that Fernando loves him. I know its weird, but it makes sense. Some people feel that love with someone with just a kiss, a touch or even a hug. Joey needs the confrontation and the anger to feel alive.
Mental illness is hurting my friend, but I look at what he has to do for himself as searching for What he knows he needs. I just hope he finds what he wants too.
