"I took the back seat to boyfriends, friends, and social outings, all because I allowed him that position of power over me. I let him feel that it was OK to treat me the way he did. I felt that it was OK that he treated me that way. I allowed it because (1) I loved him, and (2) deep down I never felt good enough for him. I felt too ugly for him, too fat, too crazy, too feminine. Any excuse I could come up with to convince myself that I wasn't good enough, I did. There was never a point in those five years when I felt worthy enough for someone I saw as so perfect. " --Wilson Knight (huffpost.com)
SUMMARY
For the longest time, Rowan, has been walking on thin ice around his friend, Ivan, whom he has been madly in love with for years now but won't reciprocate.
Rowan had done everything from taking back seats to cliff jumping and to sabotaging his own love life just to make Ivan look his way. Is it enough? Or is it just another failed attempt at getting out of the dreadful place called friend zone?
Find out here on "The Back Seat".
Unrequited love has never hurt this good.

Let's see how the sky secures the sun and the moon together and gives them their home.

When Sophomores Collide (BoyxBoy) β
"Theo. If I'm not mistaken? Isn't this yours?" He extended a hand, holding my penguin printed handkerchief. My eyes couldn't have gotten so wide. I quickly swiped it out of his grasp.

As they blindly step foot into Sophomore Year. Theo will make unexpected friends, allies and enemies, maybe even meet the love of his life!

I try not to stare most of the time, but for some reason, tonight, I just couldn't look away. I've seen many pretty girls before in so many different places; Including the light rail, but for some reason tonight, she was just so much lovelier than any other girl I've ever seen. Why am I even getting worked up over her anyways? It's not like I'll ever see her again. Well, that's a perfect excuse to keep looking! I'll never see her again, so why does it matter if I continue to look. Well then, that settles it. I'll continue to look... He was right. Normally, when I see a cute girl, I'm like eh, but because she's just so pretty, and also because I don't have much time left, I might as well. "I mean, come on dude, You might as well." What a perfect sign. I just said it, and now he just said it. Definitely means I gotta do it. I wanted to text him back to let him know I was going to. Even though he probably thinks ill chicken out at the last second. "Your right. I might as well."

Mark hasn't been on one single date for the past four and a half years. Not because he isn't attractive to the ladies.. No, it's because he's loved one single person unconditionally for the past four and a half years.. four and a half years of unrequited love.. and that's the simple (or maybe not so simple) reason for his celibacy - the handsome, deep-voiced Vincent. And the day that Vincent shows some interest in Mark is the very same day that Mark gets his heart broken in a million pieces. Six months later, and his heart's finally starting to feel something other than heartache again, he gets transferred for a two months period to the Netherlands. One day on his way home from work he meets Vincent for the first time since the heartbreak. And Vincent's a whole new man with a whole new determination. December 9th - 16th 2016 bxb/mxm/yaoi/gay.

Don't Call Me Crazy (boyxboy)
Sanity and happiness are an impossible combination. "You have no emotions, you don't feel, you don't empathize......and you don't love," he told me, his anger turning into sadness. "Your right," I replied with an empty smile. "And the worst part.....is that I can't help but love you." he said before pushing past me. Cameron Silverstone was never ordinary. He was popular but never liked. He's an outcast to put it lightly. Everyone suspects there's something wrong with him, but they have no idea. People often think he's heartless and doesn't care, and their right. His heart is anything other than warm. The day Joshua took a picture of him, is a day neither of them will ever forget.Complete
