It’s the end of August & all my friends are living it up. Why am I having Sad Boy Summer?
Hi Jake,It’s the dog days of summer and all my friends seem to be out having the time of their lives.
My Instagram and TikTok feeds have been flooded with pics and videos of everyone on their sunny vacations, lounging at the beach, having barbecues, going to outdoor concerts, etc., etc., etc.I can’t help but feel like my life is boring and lonely compared to all of them.
I feel like I’m supposed to be living it up, like the rest of the happy homos. Now, Labor Day Weekend is basically here and I know I’m going to feel even worse, since I don’t have any fun plans.Subscribe to our newsletter for a refreshing cocktail (or mocktail) of LGBTQ+ entertainment and pop culture, served up with a side of eye-candy.In a season when gays are supposed to thrive, why am I having a Sad Gay Boy Summer? Summer EclipsedDear Summer Eclipsed, If you want to guarantee a case of FOMO, spend a little time on on social media!No matter what time of year it is, we can’t always feel jubilant and celebratory… even when it seems like the rest of the world is.
For many, summer isn’t all Speedos and sunshine, and the struggles we face in December don’t always disappear at the summer solstice.
