I'm not joking about that either. She could have been one, and turned down the offer. Shit, if the talent agent offered ME that opportunity, I woulda JUMPED at that.
Yes, I turned down a modeling contract. That sort of lifestyle is not suitable for me. I have heard numerous stories of models being placed under extreme stress and having to follow unbearably strict guidelines. In my eyes, no amount of money is worth the potential physical, emotional and psychological hazards that come along with it. I do not regret my decision one bit.
I agree that you made the right choice. Besides, had you went off and become a model, I never would have met you, and I'd probably still be the sad, depressed guy that I used to be.
Brett, you are the most wonderful man I have ever known. I love you so much. Whatever happened in your past that made you feel that way, it is just that. The past. I am here now, and I plan to always be with you.
