What is the name of your first boyfriend and how did you meet?
His name was Sean. We met at a gay bar in Washington D.C. I'd just gotten outta the Coast Guard and still had my military ID so they were serving me alcohol and I was pretty wrecked. I was there alone when a scary guy came up to hit on me. In my total drunkedness I stupidly figured a good way to get rid of him would be to pretend I was deaf. So I started faking sign language to him and that I couldn't tell what he was saying. He got frustrated and left. I was all happily thinking I'd been so smart in getting rid of him when all of a sudden 2 girls came up to me and started signing to me. AHHH! They saw me from across the dance floor in the dark and distance doing what looked like sign language to the scary guy and so thought I was deaf and figured they'd come say hi to me - cuz they were deaf!
Unfortunately I didn't know sign and had only been faking. I was soooooooo embarrassed and freaked out. I confessed to them what I'd done (one of them read lips), expecting them to get all offended and mad. Instead they thought it was hilarious. They introduced me to their friends they were at the club with - all gay deaf students from a local deaf university. One of them was the cutest guy I'd ever laid eyes on. Sean. I ended up hanging out with the whole group of them 2-3 times a week and Sean and I got to know eachother and became real close and started dating for a few months and became boyfriends for awhile before I moved out to CA and then back to Egypt.
He and I still keep in touch via email and AIM and text messages. He lives in Minnesota now. And he's still the cutest guy I've ever laid eyes on.

whew. that wasn't so bad!
