Oh. My heart broke a little to read that you’re feeling bad about being a teeny tiny bit overweight and single. Of course, it’s easy to say you shouldn’t care about stuff like that, but we’ve all been there. Don’t beat yourself up for feeling that way, either. Your post ended on a positive note, so my heart put itself back together.

I have never been to a gay pride parade. Think how bad I feel! Maybe next year I can watch the Philly parade with you.

Preston, Preston, Preston. Pick yourself up and dust yourself off, man! Too bad you missed something that’s so near and dear to your heart, but I’m glad you’ll be there next year.

And if you’re ever out my way in May, the Long Beach Pride Parade is pretty huge. You should check it out!

Great article Preston and interesting wiki about Bear…learn something new every day It’s true to just be yourself and not worry what others think…a motto I have learned to try and live by. So glad you’ll be back in action for the next parade.

Oh and so jealous you are going to Sitscation…I still want to go but space is running out. We are going to Vegas in 3 weeks and hopefully I’ll win big so I can come back in October, hehe…wish me luck!

Good for you Preston. I think Brandy is spot on. You’re fabulous!

You will miss out on tons if you worry about what other people think. My motto – it is what it is. And if people don’t like me for me, I don’t really want to know them anyway. Nobody’s perfect & I hate that you missed the parade b/c you were worried about a few pounds.

Now that you’ve admitted it though, I know nothing will hold you back from being you & doing what you want to do!

Preston, I hear you. Despite loving someone and being in a relationship, I constantly worry what others think–and the 30 extra pounds I’ve gained/lost/gained this past year or so has kept me from doing so much. I have bounced from one diet to another like an over-inflated beach ball, and avoided some of the things I love ’cause I worry about my looks.Here’s some advice I should take myself:I think you are cool, funny, smart, talented, and great-looking. Do what you believe in and the rest will follow. Life is short. Live it for all it’s worth, and get out there and rock ‘n roll!Someone’s waiting for you–I know it. Love ya!
