I'm traveling across the country on a bus, going to see my girlfriend Stacy who goes to school in another state. But, here's the thing - I actually feel no real attraction to Stacy whatsoever. In fact, I'm secretly gay, but I was brought up in such a strict environment that I've never really been honest with myself about it.
