The more I play this game the more I get it the more it speaks to my early days as a teen. I my self am gay have known since I was young but still don't have the strength to let people know the real me thinking how they will think or act around me. the only people who know are some of my old friends I used to mess around with there was one friend who we were really close like Braden and Zack we practically lived together either in his house or mine we were inseparable. eventually things changed and we started having fun together but I practically fell in love with this friend over time. we did this for a few years but even tho he loved doing stuff with me he never once looked at another boy like the way he did me so I get the part about Braden cause my friend was the same he always dated girls always attracted to girls but I was the exception. it was nice to know that feeling being there only one and this story makes me think back to those days that's why I love it so much. sadly like the story suggests nothing lasts forever and I'm not looking forward to this story ending. I am thankful to you for making a story like this as it has awakened some long lost memories of my own that sadly fade away after some years your story speaks to me so much and I never really noticed why I loved it so much thank you
I appreciate you sharing this publicly. There's one guy over on youtube that just trolls the game and gets his community all worked up. They seem to hate Braden for this very reason because they think it doesn't exist in real life. It's always interesting to see a large group of gays persecuting someone else for their sexuality so I can't take them seriously at all. However, you're right... Braden's exist and I think it's more common than we think. But I wanted to validate that and show some different forms of sexuality and how they play out rather than many of the stereotypes we've seen in the media. Plus, there's just a lot of feelings for both of them to work through in this sense. I'm glad it hit you on a personal level <3
forget all the haters that's there opinion everyone is entitled to there own but I know from experience that Braden's sexual situation is a real thing. me and my friend got really close and had the same situation I'm 100% gay but he was definitely straight but had only one exception and I was lucky that it was me and I know for a fact he could get any guy he wanted if he wanted them but he didn't he was all for the female gender except when it came to me and I'm not a feminine acting person I was like him everyone thought I was straight even he did until one night when we first had some fun it was something I never thought could ever even happen always secretly hoped but never even imagined it possible with him but I known him for so long he told me everything and anyone he was ever with but for us tho it was like a unspoken pleasure we would have fun almost every night after the first time we experienced each other like that but none of us would speak of it after it and it would continue for years. your story is the best thing I have ever had the pleasure of reading I spent hours each day never wanting to stop reading and waking up looking forward to catching up on the story and even tho I know it will end I look forward to more future projects I will definitely be looking out for your work it's just amazing
