I was born in Milwaukee Wisconsin on May 30th 1986. I lived in Milwaukee for about 2 years until my sister was born. I was raised and spent most of my childhood in St. Francis Wisconsin. Throughout my childhood I was closest to my mother. I Never really had a great relationship with my father though he was a big influence on my life in a very negative way. in the summer of 1999, my family purchased a condo in Cudahy Wisconsin but we didnt officially move in until the fall of 1999 when it was finished being built. So we spent our summer living in a crappy house in South Milwaukee until August on that year. Once we moved into the condo, it wasnt long until my parents separated for the millionth time, and for the last time. In 2000, my parents filed for divorce. We remained in the condo for a least another year or so until my mom couldnt afford it anymore so my mom, sister and I had to move once again. We ended up in a two bedroom apartment in Cudahy. At that time, my friend Chad moved in with us. Dont ask me how the four of us survived in a 2 bedroom apartment for 2 years. But we did... barely. We moved three more times following the apartment. Two places in Cudahy, until things came full circle. Now I live like 6 blocks away from my first home in St. Francis. Literally on top of where my old elementary school stood. Throughout my life, escpecially as a child up until about some time last year, I was a very selfish person. Between the ages of 12 and 19, I had a violent period as well. It wasnt until the fall of 2007, that truely started to see who I had become. At the time I came to terms with the fact that I was gay, but noone really knew but they suspected. At that time, I met my first boyfriend Matt. Matt and I hit it off right from the start. We connected in a way that I had never conected with anyone before.After the relationship unfortunately ended, I learned a lot about my self. I truely holdon to that relationship because it truely defined the saying, " you dont know what you have until its gone." Though today, I have had a complete overhaul in my life. matt and I tried to remain friends with a lot of fallouts. With the final one 5 days after I last saw him, on Valentines Day 2009. On that day, I had enough of the way I was and the person I had become. Wether Matt and I ever talk to eachother again remains to be seen. BUt no matter what, I had to do this for myself. Well, thats basically my life in a nutshell. Basically, forgetting the past and looking forward to a more positive future. For those of you who actually took the time to read this, thank you.
