the diaryland search feature is handy, but it causes all sorts of problems.

first some chick who randomly searched for me went psycho on me. and now i searched for the town i go to school in and, well, i found a friend.

i could send a note to this dude or something to tell him i tracked him down, but i'm thinking that's not the best idea. he doesn't seem to update very often, so there's not much to see, but he does let one little cat out of the bag: he's gay.

he could find my diary just as easily, and i kind of hope he does. i want to tell him things that i would never be able to tell him to his face, unless he actually told me this himself, and i doubt it because we're not quite that close of friends.

if you ever stumble across this, i want you to know that this changes nothing in the way i think about you. maybe i'm more open-minded than most - and i know i am - but there's no reason you should have to hide who you are. i'm glad you have a small group you can be open with, and i hope that's enough. but i really think the vast majority of those around you would be so accepting.

you are such an awesome person, and i love you to death. i love your bearhugs. i love having deep discussions - love the way your mind works. i actually told my best friend that you were the coolest guy i'd met here. just don't let anyone else make you forget things like that.

just wanted to say.

that's when you knew this world can't be saved, only discovered. and you knew things could be different than before. and you will not be alone anymore.
