Well I just failed that test
It's cuz you didn't sleep
It doesn't matter that I slept or not because I studied for the wrong fucking test
Shit dude that sucks
Whatever I'm planning on dropping out soon anyway
You gonna finish out the semester? There's only a few weeks left
I'm gonna try but idk
I didn't want to go to college in the first place so I'm just not motivated
So why'd you go if you didn't want to
My parents wanted me to
They said they'd disown me if I didn't go
But I still haven't come out so they're going to disown me anyway
Maybe I can come out and kill two birds with one stone
It'll be one big disowning party
Well it sounds like you've got your whole life figured out
No
Not even close
I mean I've got a job and I already found an apartment and Zack said he'd move in with me if I needed a roommate but idk
The whole thing is lame
Well your parents sound shitty so
They're actually pretty good parents they're just really religious and they want me to be successful
But I'm gay and I don't like school
Well then that's their problem
Honestly if your parents aren't going to treat you like a person just because you're gay then you shouldn't worry about what they think
Live your life
I feel like you're trying to give me a pep talk and it's just not working
I'm not very good at this
That's okay it's the thought that counts
And you're right, I shouldn't worry about what they think
It's more of the fact that they're my parents and I'm trying to be someone they're proud of
But I'm gonna be a gay college dropout and they wanted me to be a rich heterosexual
You could still be a rich homosexual
Doubtful.
Well what did you want to do if you weren't going to college
I was hoping my band would end up pretty successful but our drummer quit and our lead guitarist joined another band
I play guitar if you need a new guitarist ;)
I still don't know who you are
We could meet up
No
So you don't need a new guitarist
No I do I just don't know anything about you
I have a friend that plays drums
Goddammit
Okay fine
Maybe after finals
Wait so who's your bassist and your singer?
Zack plays bass and I sing
I also play guitar
Omg you sing? Can you sing something right now? Please??
This is a text conversation
We are texting
Send a video
No
Please
You can hear me sing in a few weeks when finals are over
Noooooo
Or not
You could just not be part of the band
NO PLEASE I WANNA BE IN YOUR BAND
PLEASE
Wow all caps
You must be really serious about this
Too bad you have to wait until finals are over
Why does it matter if you're just gonna drop out?
Zack's not dropping out.
Oh yeah
Sorry
Nah it's cool

4:52 pm
How do I come out to my parents
Idk man I'm not google
But I like the idea of dropping out and telling them you dropped out before coming out
It'll be like "hey Mom, Dad? I dropped out of college." "Alex! No!" "And I'm gay..." "*dies*"
I don't want this to kill my parents
Not like actually die
Like... metaphorically
Idk maybe they'll be okay with it
You said they're very religious?
Yeah
Sorry dude
I don't think so
Okay but maybe they'll be okay with me being gay because they're my parents and they love me
They're opinion on gay people?
....okay so maybe they won't be
But I'm trying to look on the bright side
And the bright side is that you'll be out and you won't have to worry about your parents constantly being on your back about every little thing
Don't overthink it
I always overthink things
I'm overthinking you being in our band
Why
Idk I just am
Well don't because I can actually play guitar
I don't think you're lying to me I just kinda like the idea of you being this almost anonymous person I can talk to about literally anything
This sounds like the plot of love simon
Yeah but you're not slowly falling in love with me and I'm not gonna get scared and disappear if someone outs you
And I don't think we go to the same school
Probably not
Wait but do you live in Baltimore
Because we have the same time zone apparently and the same area code
Yeah I live in Baltimore
Cool dude
Me too
Yeah I kinda figured
Ah shit my friend's making me go to a party
They need a wingman or some bullshit
I gotta go
Good luck
