Honestly, sometimes I think I am cursed when it comes to love. For some reason, men seem to look everywhere else but at me, as if I'm completely invisible or to just be ignored. Jean, on the other hand, has always had the talent to attract men, even those whose attention she never asked for.
Like Logan. He is gorgeous in a way that is uniquely his, possessing an animal grace about him that is quite intriguing. When we first brought him to the mansion, I had hoped that he would stay around for a while. I'd hoped for a brief second that he might notice me and take an interest. But he was gone so quickly nothing happened. He only has eyes for Jean at any rate. I don't think he would even bat an eyelash if I were standing before him stark naked.
Don't get me wrong. I am happy with my life. I wouldn't trade the work we do here for anything. Sometimes, I just get so lonely. Is it so wrong to want someone in that life? Someone to make me feel alive, strong, and comfortable in her sexuality, as a woman should feel? There have only been two men during the past 6 years. One is tragically dead now, and the other just broke off the relationship and left. Scott says to get out and date, but who would I date? I'm a *mutant*. Normal people hate us or fear us. Fellow mutants? Refer to "invisible". I really do fear that I'll end up a far too young spinster type puttering around in her garden.
Well, at least it will be one *very* good looking garden.
