I kind of dropped a lot of bad habits about three years ago and became kind of accidentally straight-edge. I don't have Xs on my hands, but I guess if I wanted to go back to calling myself straight-edge, I could. Around that same time I started running.

I'm a straight guy and I date women, but I get on really well with gay guys. I'm very comfortable with my sexuality.
