My name is Aidan. I'm a lot of things. Vegetarian. FTM. Liberal. Caring. Spiritual. Gay. But none of these things make me who I am. They are just small details mixed in with all the things that make me, well, me. If you can't see that, stop reading now.
I used to try and be what everyone expected or wanted from me. I rather be hated then loved for who I am not. I do not even bother anymore. Like me? I will embrace you and we can be best friends, simple as that, just like in grade school. Hate me? Fuck you, don't talk to me, save me the bother.
I contradict myself on a daily basis. One minute I am happy, the next I am sad. Sometimes I say I am one thing when really I am the other. I'm confusing, I even confuse myself sometimes. It's just like Walt Whitman said: "Do I contradict myself? Very well, then, I contradict myself. I am large, I contain multitudes."
I say a lot of things just to get a laugh or a smile. I like people to be happy when they are around me. That doesn't mean I don't want to hear your problems... it just means i'll do whatever I can to make them better.
I like to do a lot of crazy things like dance in the rain and sneak out at odd hours of the morning just to look at the stars. I climb trees and hang out in club houses. I like to do a lot of things I did as a kid, play tag and blow bubbles on the deck as the sun sinks behind me. I would like to think I'll always be a child inside, even though I know it might not be true.
