Trophy Husband, Xicano Sol [urban books to read TXT] 📗

He had never felt so attractive in all his life until he came out of the closet. For the first time, he associated his sexuality with something good, something worthy of acceptance, praise, and adoration. He fought hard to stay on top of the social food chain. From working out 5 times a week, to buying only the trendiest of clothes, to having a circle of friends at the same caliber of physical attractiveness… it was all part of the equation of what it took to be good looking in the Gay community. It worked well, especially in his younger years, but youth was beginning to fade. Younger generations were out on the scene and the competition for the spotlight grew more intense as the years passed.

He was over it. He had grown weary of his “trophy” status. Upon reflection, he knew that men didn’t really want to get to know him passed the sexual conquest of it all. He had not been in a serious relationship that could last more than a few months and he began to long for something more substantial in his life. He knew he would have to give up all the “benefits” that came along with the “scene” which meant a lot more time spent with himself. He came to the realization that he wanted his first substantial relationship to be with himself. He was ready for the journey and this appointment would be one of his first steps.
