ToD: Week 10 & Week 12 Truths
10. Have you ever wished you could be with someone else while in a monogamous relationship?
Yes, I have. Not going to lie about it since this is a truth question but yes, I have. When I was with Bret, as things were getting bad, I wanted to be with someone else. I really didn't have a specific person in mind but there was this guy that we hung out with sometimes. He was a cousin of Bret's but they weren't friends. Adam. He was tall though not as tall as Bret, he was blond and he was bulkier whereas Bret was wiry. He was a nice guy, quiet and he was funny. He was also the type to listen which I needed a lot of right before I moved to New York and when I came back to Texas.
Right before I moved, when things were bad, I'd often end up sitting with Adam somewhere and just talking about things. Can't tell you how many times he held my hand or just tried to make me feel better. He called Bret an asshole plenty of times. It was during those times I seriously wanted to be with someone else, someone who did a better job of caring for me than my boyfriend.
When I was in Texas the last time, that was when I found out Bret had cheated on me. I never told anyone but the night after finding out, I slept with Adam. Bret and I got into a huge fight with a bunch of people standing right there, and when Bret went to grab my arm, Adam grabbed him instead. Something was said and suddenly the boys were fighting. We got them apart and I left with Adam, we ended up at his parents place but they were out of town. We had sex in the guest room, a couple of times. I've talked to him once or twice since but that was it.

Truth: Discuss what you were like as a child.
I was actually a really quiet kid. I am an only child, I was raised on a ranch and both my parents worked. I spent a lot of time with my uncle and a lot of time on my own. So I was used to entertaining myself and doing whatever I wanted. I really didn't have a lot of rules but that didn't mean that I was a hooligan because I really wasn't. I went to school, I had good marks and then I went home. To tell the truth, I was pretty isolated.
My uncle helped a lot though, he is responsible for my love of music and he is the one who focused on my talent. He taught me how to play drums and piano, he was the one to give me my guitar when I wanted to learn how to play. We used to sing quite a bit too, so he really influenced that aspect of my life. He was the one who got me into tarot in a roundabout way as well, because it turns out my grandmother used to read tea leaves. When I started looking into tarot, he got me my first set of cards.
I really didn't become a social butterfly until I was a teenager, then I joined a couple clubs and that is when I started to change. I started dyeing my hair, I got my nose pierced and when I was sixteen is when I started getting my tattoos done. I was used to being independent and going by my own rules, so I didn't ask my parents for permission.
But yeah, that was me. I was a quiet kid, very musical and independent.
