I adored it. It made me laugh at places and go, "awww" at places and everything!! Great job.
Oh except one thing kinda threw me off, 'He didn’t think loving someone of the same gender was any different than having feelings for someone of the same gender'. You said the same thing twice. I think. Or maybe I'm just dumb. Could you clear that up a bit for me?

Gah! Youre right. Sorry. Yeah, I need to pay attention more. I'll fix it. It's supposed to be "Same gender...different gender". Thanks for catching that!
