Who are we anyway?

Gone are the days of loneliness, I am enjoying my time alone now. I have no further regrets, nor
do I wish things had been different.  For the most part I believe that this was meant to be, whether it started for selfish reasons or not, it ended, I've accepted, and this is a new time for me. A roommate someday? Yes, of course, because we are very much like sisters, and I think it will work well for us both, being siblings without the conflict that usually comes with it, we are best friends. It sometimes seems though, in today's world, when two people of the same sex live together they get tagged as homosexuals. I think this is very funny  because not so long ago, if a man and woman roomed together no one would ever believe it was platonic.  Why does everyone feel the need to make everything that everyone does something sexual?

I work with several bosses, male and female. Both of the females are lesbians, and are happy in their relationships. I get frequently razzed by one, just as men do...with  her sexual innuendos. I know she means nothing serious by her flirtations,(she loves her wife) but I do worry for her if anyone found out she did so.( and I have tried to warn her that not everyone would laugh and give her hell right back.)  Everything else is overload on political correctness, and I am surprised that my work does not have the same programs as my other employers had regarding improper remarks made at work. ( though, any company that places scantily clad females dancing in a table pit would be hard to defend itself as not being sexually oriented.)

There was also an assumption made, by one male employee, that since I was not in a couple I must be gay. (Really? Good grief. Don't label me. That pisses me off.) Then after learning I was not a lesbian he nicely hit on me. I was flattered, he is a handsome man, but he is MARRIED. After being in the wrong place for so long, and having that table turned on me, I would not do it, not in a million years. I politely declined, and explained why. Having been the one cheated on for years, I would not do that to another woman, no matter the reason..( because I have already been in that place.) Know what? He respected that. No hard feelings for either of us. We still flirt with each other once in a while.

When the time is right I will know it. Despite my situation I am not drawn to women. They are friends and that is all they will ever be. I know men have issues that all women have to deal with. I am only and have only been attracted to men, no latent bi-sexuality. I know that seems to be the thing, and a lot of young people seem to lean that way, but I am not following a fad..whether it is unnecessary tattoos, piercings, or sex. I like to find my own way in life, and not someone else's. Being part of a huge group who all do the same thing does Not make you an individual. It makes you a Lemming, swimming with the rest.

To those that like to give others labels..get a life, and keep out of mine. As far as I am concerned I don't fit into a box marked and recorded as being one particular thing. I am not old,  I am no longer angry, I am happy with who I am, and  I am not gay because I am not in a couple. The only one who has the right to give me a moniker is me. All others will be dismissed as so much balderdash.

think about it,
k
--sorry to disappoint anyone who wanted me to continue to be miserable because it fed some  need of theirs. Power trip somewhere else please.
