Bruno Zhu
Divorced, father of two. We met twice. He was seeing another man. He was not in love with him. He said I could make him do things he wouldn’t do like kissing on a first date. He said I was dangerous, and I said he was dangerous too. He liked the sound of my voice, and I liked the risk he took by listening to it. We said goodbye on the phone, one kiss after the other.

Divorced, father of two. We met twice. He was seeing a man he was not in love with. He wasn’t sure if he wanted to commit. I made him do things he wouldn’t do like kissing on a first date. He told me he liked the sound of my voice and I called him a bastard for being so tender, so loving. We said goodbye on the phone, one kiss after the other.

Divorced, father of two. We met twice. He was seeing a man who was falling in love with him, but he didn’t feel the same way. The other lover was more of his type physically, but I made him do things he wouldn’t do like kissing on a first date. He liked the sound of my voice and couldn’t hang up when we said goodbye on the phone, one kiss after the other.

Divorced, father of two. We met twice. He confessed he was not in love with the man he was seeing. Their sex was good, but I made him do things he wouldn’t do like to kiss on a first date. He would send me pictures of the sunset after work. They were beautiful to him, and that was beautiful to me. We said goodbye on the phone, one kiss after the other.
