Welcome to part two of my original chat with the fabulous six and if you thought six went through it in part one, well, where do you hear part two, which is going to start right now?

What was going on then after you in Sebastian parted ways and you caught I just you know what I decided that I needed to change a life.

I needed a change of pace. I needed a change of scenery and I went down to visit a childhood friend in North Carolina and I just fell in love with it.

It was so different than anything I ever known. I mean North Carolina is beautiful.

It was warm and it was winter. Yeah, that's a big thing. I could believe that I was walking around in a tank top in January and I couldn't believe it.

Yeah, so and then of course, you know, I saw the potential of all those country boys down there and that really changed my mind super quick.

So I went I stayed in North Carolina for two weeks came back to Detroit and a week later I was in a U-Haul on my way back to on my way to North Carolina.

Wow. I moved to North Carolina. I was there in Charlotte for maybe three to four months before I met a guy who was originally from North Carolina.

Yeah, I lived in Miami. Okay. And I fell in that 19 like that that 19 20 year old love again. That instant like obsession.

This is the one. This is the I have finally now I understand what all of the now understand why Sebastian happened understand why Sean happened.

Yeah, and here he is and I moved to Miami three months later.

This was still warm in the winter. I mean, it was beautiful. I had never been to Miami. I had never been to really like I had never really lived in that type of tropical environment for sure.

And so it was all just again, I was living the fantasy. I had my dream guy. I mean, this guy was fucking beautiful.

And literally the most breathtaking person I had ever seen and just to go back to for a minute to North Carolina know what was the drug use when you were in North Carolina? None.

None. Okay. Interesting. So you stopped in Charlotte in Charlotte. I was like, you know, like I dabbled a little bit, but I was not like out of control. Like I was about to be. I see.

I moved to Miami and opened me up to a whole other area of the alphabet that I had never really like I had never I had never known nightlife like that. I had never known the gay nightlife to be like that. I had never known an environment so warm where it's just year round.

Like you're not you're not conflict conflicted by any outside. I mean, you just fucking party all day long. It doesn't matter.

It's nice all the time. The club closes at two and opens again at 230. Really? Wow. I mean, it's just I mean, or you know, in Miami, I think I think they they close it for and then open again at six. Wow.

So I mean, there's a two hour window there where you just go home to take a shower. Grab a pair of sunglasses and head right back on out. Yeah. Yeah. And we did that. Yeah.

The guy that I was dating at the time was, you know, really wanting to be a model and he was really like going hardcore it like trying to model. Yeah.

And that was the first time wherever looked at myself in the mirror and was like, hey, I could probably do that too. And so I tried to, you know, develop a modeling career and started standing in front of the mirror. Yeah.
