Older local gay man who I met in 2014 because he was the main actor in my friend's final project which was a short film for which I accidentally became the entire crew (that was a nightmare! Don't do this!) who I set up a "website" for
Since I truly thought this was going to be a short term thing, and I also didn't know shit, and the priorities at the time were free + easy for guy to update, the way I did it was a wordpress BLOG which honestly actually does kinda meet the criteria tbh, I'm still not sure how else I would do it...
The thing is he hasn't ever understood how to edit the text on it; either that or he just wants someone to talk to... so every year or so he calls me and asks for help to update it
Last year it ended with "I will send you a word doc" [he didn't, so nothing happened] so now it's super out of date and his domain registration expires in like a week
so this year I gotta try to switch his domain registration over to Wordpress (but I can't get into the account with the sketchy registrar it's currently on so first we gotta figure that out) and then like, update resume text
CW bad relationship
One of the things that makes this whole thing Stressful to me is that when I first met this guy I had just gotten out of what I now describe as a Manipulative / Sort Of Close To Abusive Relationship (it's REALLY complicated, guy from the tiny town I grew up in who had been in a car crash and lost a lot of memories thought we were much closer friends than we had been, heavily implied that he deserved me to date him bc he'd lost so much and I was the only other gay guy in this town...)That relationship really Fucked Me Up in terms of understanding what other people wanted with me bc it made me scared of anyone who was hitting on me - and thus it made me start assuming everyone who was vaguely friendly to me before I really knew them was hitting on me, including this old guy.
In hindsight I don't think he was being creepy at me, I literally just think he was being friendly and I think he's nice now and I want to support him if he is just looking for someone to talk to bc come on, we gotta support the old gays. He lived thru AIDs.
But there is that lingering complication which stresses me out
Anyway I gotta like do wordpress shit with the guy;
ok here the fuck we go. opening a second monster so I can be extremely fast and have social energy and be weird and stuff
Ok no that went well and we just chatted a lot.
he told me I should go to italy
