LitLover Posted May 11, 2016 Posted May 11, 2016 I'm glad we saw the situation from Jason's POV too. I'm happy you like the POV. I did feel bad that the actual story wasn't being moved along (as mentioned in spikey's review) but, to me, it seemed important for the reader to 'witness' Jason's talk with Pierre for themselves, as well as his conversation with his brother. 2
Drew Espinosa Posted May 12, 2016 Author Posted May 12, 2016 Jaysalmn said something interesting in his review that caught my eye: Admitting to something ONLY because it happened to him tells me he's still pretty self centered. I would say that because Jason went through the same thing, he was able to walk a mile in Perri's shoes and have an "aha!" moment realizing the hurt he put his ex through. 1
Timothy M. Posted May 12, 2016 Posted May 12, 2016 I think Jason realized he'd behaved abominably long before the incident with Luc. Corey cutting off their friendship and the damage to his relationship with his brother slammed the message home. Jason never cheated on anyone since then and he made it clear to everybody he was only into casual connections. Until Luc, and even that was casual at first. 3
dughlas Posted May 12, 2016 Posted May 12, 2016 We may have covered the same time frame but the story did move along ... we've a better understanding of Jason. I also agree with Drew, sometimes experiencing something you once did from the other side brings a perspective previously lacking. That is part of gaining maturity. 3

I would like to think that anyone can change, no matter how badly they've acted in the past. I thought it was a good thing that Jason was able to relate what happened with Luc to what he did to Pierre. In my mind it showed empathy and his growth as a person. Plus he did have months to mull things over from walking in on Luc, to seeing Pierre at the bachelor party. Tim, I agree, I think he realized how badly he behaved before Luc, but being hurt put it in perspective for him Edited May 12, 2016 by LitLover 3
Timothy M. Posted May 18, 2016 Posted May 18, 2016 Chapter 5 is posted. Its time for a wedding and some drama For a moment I thought Jason had gone after Corey to speak with him after the confrontation with Zach. Drew was a better choice though. 1
LitLover Posted May 18, 2016 Posted May 18, 2016 (edited) and some drama For a moment I thought Jason had gone after Corey to speak with him after the confrontation with Zach. Drew was a better choice though. Just a wee bit of drama Edited May 18, 2016 by LitLover

Bucket1 Posted May 20, 2016 Posted May 20, 2016 Spikey made an interesting comment It's like they were vague sex partners that watched tv together and never actually got to know each other. I have met a few couples, gay and straight, like this. They are fine until the power goes out and they have to talk to each other 1

I have met a few couples, gay and straight, like this. They are fine until the power goes out and they have to talk to each other I've known several couples like that as well. It happens a lot. Chapter 6 is now up. Enjoy!

I forgot to mention in my review that I was interested to see Jason wanted to go after Corey but Drew stopped him. Very telling moment. 2
LitLover Posted May 26, 2016 Posted May 26, 2016 I forgot to mention in my review that I was interested to see Jason wanted to go after Corey but Drew stopped him. Very telling moment. As Spikey said in his review, Corey might have given up on his friendship with Jason, but Jason never did.
dughlas Posted June 1, 2016 Posted June 1, 2016 Chapter 7 has now been posted. We're back to Corey This was a really good chapter his memories were just so ... not gonna say more ... people just need to go read it for themselves. 3
Timothy M. Posted June 1, 2016 Posted June 1, 2016 I loved the comparison between the ex-friend and the ex-boyfriend. 5
Headstall Posted June 1, 2016 Posted June 1, 2016 I loved the comparison between the ex-friend and the ex-boyfriend. Me too... 2
Site Moderator Reader1810 Posted June 1, 2016 Site Moderator Posted June 1, 2016 I loved the comparison between the ex-friend and the ex-boyfriend. Me too... Me three. I think it will help open Corey's eyes to how much Jason has changed and grown up from who he was eight years ago. 2
