He said:
“I was jilted on Valentine’s Day.
At about 3am in the morning, the person told me that she could not love me back the way I loved her.
I replied that I could still love her, but I would let her go.
I always remain friends with all the people I have been involved with (romantically) over the years.”
He continued, “I have been haunted so much by people saying I don’t dress the way one is supposed to dress. Even when I comb my hair and wear proper suits, people compare me to other media personalities.”
“Authenticity, for me, is about living my life on my terms, and being as original as possible in my mode of expression, in line with my beliefs.”
