Yeah, I kind of realized the non-difference between “was” and “thought I was” after I said it. But thank you for clarifying; I kind of gathered as much but didn’t want to make any assumptions, besides being interested in your thoughts. And as long as we’re being honest, I have a weakness for bi boys. :)

Eclipse: It’s hard to tell the difference between “was gay” and “thought I was gay” in hindsight. :-) But at that time I was only interested in and involved with men. And one important element of that is that I was politically gay then too, in a gay community that was unfortunately pretty anti-bi (Montreal, late 1990s).

But hindsight suggests I was bi then, and I am now — compare #21 and #91!

Just out of curiosity, and not to get too personal here, but when you say you “self-identified as gay,” does that mean you were gay, or thought you were gay, or ? Would you say you are bi now, or just straight? I’m not trying to be rude; I’m genuinely interested in what this means to you. My partner is bi and while I’ve always considered myself straight, I’m not sure that’s strictly true. Would you be willing to elaborate on that?

Oh, the Second Cup in Montreal. I remember that place. I still remember a lot about my trip to Montreal in 1998. I *LOVED* it there and I still would love to go back one day. Thank you for helping me have that experience!
