Every gay male has a fascinating past....everyone should keep a journal...regardless of orientation. Johnnathan is just a jewel!
What a great guy! He is one of those people you just want to hug and squeeze.
That's exactly who he is! That'll be the first thing you'll do when you meet him in person for the very first time.
It's the sheer resilience and determination that jumps out at me from the screen during these videos. Any gay man who makes it past 60... my hat goes off to them. It's easier now but it certainly wasn't always easy. I love your videos... thanks for publishing them.
Awesome Story.
That was a lovely story. Also, I remember those phone days.
An incredible journey! Honored to have heard his story. Jane Fonda said, we have three acts. He’s entering his third act! Congratulations
So cool! Thank you! I've met several gay men who are in long term relationships. We are strong people who love deeply! Peace my brother! Happy New Year! xo
What a delightful man and raconteur! Touching, too. Oh gawd yes, those cheap after hours phone calls... (and keep it under 3 minutes. )
The anxiety of waiting to receive an actual letter or that three-minute phone call, though, right? That feeling is forever gone.
@@lgbtqarchives And the nerve-jangling sound of the ringer when the call did come. Not missing it either!
another fantastic story ! thank you so much !
Thanks for supporting the channel ❤️
HA! That's so spot on about manipulating the phone companies for the cheapest rates.....we also used to call our parents collect when traveling or out of town. The operators would call our parents to see if they'd accept the call and they'd always say no! On purpose, just making the call was code for, "Everything is okay here." And don't get started on evening rates or overseas rates! When I lived in France, we used to trick the phone booths (1980's), by attaching a one French Franc piece to string and drop it down the coin shoot and toggle it to just where the phone sensed coins being dropped. Then, we'd tape it to the outside...you could talk a good 10 minutes before it stopped.
That collect call idea was priceless🤣
An amazing journey. Reminds me of when Robert Frost penned the words, "Two roads diverged in a wood, and I, I took the one less traveled by, and that has made all the difference." Yep, caregiver; parking the truck on a remote pull-out and walking up on the side of the mountain - standing there screaming. Then getting back in the truck - driving down the road, crying... Being a long-term caregiver can trigger some interesting behaviors... Been there, done that.... (I could just imagine - a couple of coyotes hiding behind a bush, watching and listening - one saying to the other, "Well, Fred, that one just went over a slippery rock...!")
Very true. Long-term caregivers often end up needing a lot of help themselves. Alzheimer's is brutal. It's even worse when it affects someone with no family or real friends, a situation that's unfortunately common in the LGBTQ community.
A fascinating story so well told with honesty, passion and filled with diverse aspects of a rich and fulfilling life both gay and hetero. A cheerful optimistic way of living. A great model for young gays who are struggling to come out. I'm 82 and lost my life partner 16 yrs ago after a committed fulfilling relationship of 38 years. It's reassuring to hear a story that has many similarities to yours. Thanks for your honesty.
Wow what a beautiful story ❣️❣️🤩🌹🤩
Can confirm about butterflies and hummingbirds...there is more to heaven and earth than we realize💔💔💔
Love these stories. ❤
I've been listening to your videos as well. Are you the narrator?
Quero mais histórias assim ❤
Wow what a beautiful story😢❤
Amazing man and couple. ❤
Johnathan thank you for sharing your beautiful story! After they pass they are always with you! ❤️🏳️🌈
Thank You for sharing your journey with us. I'm 64yrs old and its amazing how us gay men have similar stories. I'm glad we are here to talk about them it definitely strengthened us! Thanks Again.
Beautiful. xoxoxo
From a different reasons I never had a "dad" in my father. I have found the guy who is happy to take the role, even when I was 21 when we started to see each other more and even from that point it have took me 2 years to start to see it this way (Well I know him since I was 9 years, but we have connected later)... And he accepts me even when I am only into older guys.

Great to hear a success story. Not that all the scenarios are tragic...but, some are bittersweet. Yet, Mr. Korver's journey is very uplifting and genuine. I truly enjoy these little episodes of "Our" history...the time lines are varied and insightful. There should be a library of these lovely people's chronicles of growth. History for LBGT agenda has been so sparse and non existent...we need more advocates and scholars. Nevertheless...thanks for these nostalgic backstories...
Life for us old guys was very hard, it may have gotten easier for us but i don't think we are in the clear yet.
Just watching this video. What a great guy the kind of guy you want to fall in love with.
The transition from straight to gay is missing from this story. I found myself waiting for it, then suddenly starting a relationship with someone 19 years older. All the good stuff and no bad stuff. As if life is so easy, but possibly privileged you had a wonderful life always.
That’s a different video. His growing up gay story: ua-cam.com/video/ooD_-Ry8L-g/v-deo.htmlsi=od5gW8cX6l6CGeVb
He's a sweetheart
My husband passed away with the same illness, it was extremely painful. I miss him very much, I share your pain.
It's a brutal disease. Everyone suffers. Sorry to hear that.
Such a guy!
I nearly dated him. Were very close to happen... Not sharing who i am. But he was nearly mine. 😢😊😅
I guess all of us gay men to some degree have had a colourful past. Interesting that you were twice married, wouldn’t that make you Bisexual? Thanks for posting your very interesting story.
No. Bisexual men don't exist. Having sex with a woman in the dark while thinking about Mario Lopez doesn't make one bisexual. Women, on the other hand, are hardwired differently. Gay men have reproduced the old-fashioned way with women for thousands of years, which is why homosexuality, no matter how society discourages it, never disappeared and never will, because it's genetic.
Interesting Life.
❤❤❤
9th what a wonderful story....you're about 10yrs older than I ....
