A few years ago my straight roommate played around. It lasted for about a year until he just couldn't deal with it and wanted to find a girl friend. So with some difficulties we went our separate ways. He got married a few years later, had a couple of kids. We kept in touch but never played around anymore. Then things just went bad, his wife put demand on him and made him choose her or his best friend. Of course he chose her and his kids. I could understand that, but she made him cut all ties with me. Maybe she suspected something I don't know. But anyways for last 4 yrs there has been no contact between us. Well that was until yesterday.
Fast forward to present day. I was in a mood and put an add on Craigslist. I have done it before, met a few guys on there, nothing to write home about, mostly liars and freaks. I got a response from a guy that listed his stats and age, said that he was driving through town on his way to Oklahoma, had stopped to look for a hotel and food and saw my add. Wanted to know if he could stop by. Said that he was straight, and hasn't done anything for a long time and that he is married and very private. I feel the same, I am bi, and private also. So i gave him my information after a few emails. I offered to call him or text and he said that he didn't feel comfortable doing that. So I sort of thought, okay another flake. But he said that he would be at my in about 30 min. So cleaned up and waited.
The doorbell rang and I went to answer, i looked out of the peep hole and my heart stopped. There he was, blonde hair, leather jacket and all. All at once i was in a panic, excited, happy, scared, didn't know what to do. He knocked, and my dog was at my feet, i grabbed him and put him in his cage. So he knew someone was at the door. I took a second to get it together and open the door. My mind was racing, what would he think, what would he do, would he turn and walk away. I was felt like was jumping out of a plane. As I opened the door it seem like a dream, and I step out of the doorway so he could see me. I heard my name. I heard Holy Shit, I heard him say your kidding me. Then I heard my name again. All I could do was just stand there and look at him for a second but it seemed like an hour. When i focused I noticed he had this big smile on his face, and eased me. He said can i come in. I moved to the side, and he walked past me. I shut the door and we both stood there for a second, and he said how have you been. I am still just a bit on edge. With him I broke a rule, never fall for a straight guy, and I fell hard, we had been the best of friends for so long....Anyways he came in and we talked and talked. It seemed like the craiglist add didn't exist. I did ask how he knew about it, he said that he had seen it and talked with a few guys before but never met because he didn't have the place or the time. But since he was traveling home and was stopping he thought he would give it another shot. I was glad he did. He asked me who I was dating, I said no one. And the truth is I have met a few guys on there but like i said nothing to write home about. And if i were to be honest with myself I would have to say that my friend still holds a very special place with me. After a long talk and a couple of drinks, well u know the rest. This morning before he left, he said that he wanted to stop by on the way back home on Sat. I agreed, and he sent me an email telling me that it was nice to have me back in his life and that he did miss me and miss our friendship. So who knows, at the very least i have some part of my best friend back. I have to wonder if I am opening Pandora's Box again. But life is a series of chances, and maybe this is my chance. We have to wait and see.......
