I would probably hate being accessible 24/7 because of this kind of mindset. It's perfectly normal to look at the text, and then forget about it for a little bit. Especially, if you are working on a project. There's also times when my phone is in the other room, and I don't see the text until the middle of the night. I'm not going to text back at that hour, and it's not weird to forget the next day.

It's all about the context of the SMS conversation.
I don't expect a reply all the time nor do I think that every text deserves one, but sometimes an "OK" or "Talk you later" or "I got it" is more than enough.

And I say this as someone who forgets about his phone as soon as he gets home.
 
Hey guys, I know thisnt a relationship question, but I value the opinions of some of you, and also I scared to make a new thread. I just need some quick input: Im upgrading from Blackberry phone and a new smartphone, but Im debating either an Iphone4S or LG Optimus 2X (Android). What has been your experience with these types of devices?
 
So many sad faces. Turn those frowns upside-down, sunshine!
"That's a smile, not an upside down frown!"

The only guideline I have is my friends who wont' shut the fuck up about how much they hate their Android phones, so, go the iPhone.

I would go with Android. I don't really like iOS.
After using an iPhone 4S and a Samsung Galaxy SII, can't really go back to iOS.

My current phone is a Galaxy SII (original, international version) and I love it. Highly recommended!
 
I left his place at 7:30, I said to him "I need to get home before my roommate wakes up to go to work, or else he will judge me and think I'm a slut." so I walk the one block and get to my apartment (he lives one block away) Sure enough I walk into my apartment and my roommate is awake early, cleaning, and gives me the dirtiest look saying "I was being quiet thinking you were in there asleep, where did you stay last night?" I texted him later that I was going to be hung over and lazy If he wanted to come over, he said he was going to call me when he finished his errands, he did, but he said some of this friends just got into town and he was going to meet them, but that I should definitely call him when I get out of work so we could hang out. I'm gonna tell him to take me out to a movie tomorrow, it's been a while since I've seen one.

How cute :) Wish you luck. I love going to the movies with a date and catching each other randomly giving cute smiley glances during the movie.
 
Or holding hands in the theater with all these straight people around. :P

My hand would probably get all sweaty, and then I'd feel so distracted because I'd be thinking about my sweaty hand and how gross that is. I'd end up missing part of the movie.

I actually don't think I'm afraid of doing that now. I'm becoming more comfortable although when we are kissing at work I'm always looking over my shoulder to make sure we don't get caught lol.

Where do you two kiss? In the bathroom? In a stall?

In the bathroom, it's a one person bathroom but we can't shut the door cuz we don't wanna get caught together in there lol...
 
Hey GayGaf! Long time lurker and now my account was finally validated so I thought I'd say hi :)

I live in the UK, Yorkshire to be precise (though I'm looking to move to Manchester), and yeah I'm single :/ I graduated from Uni couple of years ago. That's about it I think!

Welcome! :) UK gaygaf is heavily under-represented in this thread. :p
 
Yeah. He was also one of those people who is very young (I think he's 22 or so, which would make him like 18 or 19 when he was first active on GayGAF) but absolutely convinced that he was much more mature and worldly than he actually is.

B-b-but he's published a book! And it's on Kindle now as well! Surely that means he's right!

I wouldn't go so far as say "douchebag," but yeah... Zeph was really abrasive and what kept me away.

Let's make this a love-only zone, yeah?

(Wow, that's huger than I thought it'd be. Whatever.)

You can't get with him as Male Shepard. =( The gay romance option is...can I post it with spoilers without getting the ban-hammer?

Wrex
. Shepard. The only right answer.

iPhone is you want ease of use and hipster status along with a ton of apps.

Android if you want Linux tinkering and don't mind having as many apps.

I've tried Android phones and personally prefer them due to the options in photo uploading and other stuff. But iPhone has a more consistent "feel" that is traditional Apple "it just works."

Where in Manny you looking to move?
 
Thanks for all the welcomes! :)

Anywhere really, as long as it isn't roughsville and is in walking distance of the city centre. Are you from around there? I'm currently looking for a job, which is the only thing stopping me from moving!
 
Cool! I'd like somewhere I can stagger home drunk after a night out. I consider it a prime factor in my choice of location ;) Though in reality it'll be "Aaah I've got a job! Where can I live? Who has a spare room?!" to each of my friends there.

If you hear of any jobs going (preferably office based) please fling 'em my way. :)

I have the G2x which is the same as the Optimus. Though I love Android I hate this phone! It restarts on it's own and it freezes for no good reason. I would go with the iphone or the Galaxy Nexus.
 
I dont know about you guys, but if theres someone Im into, or really interested in, I go out of my way to communicate with them and to stay in touch. In this day its really not to difficult to take 5 seconds to text or message "Had a great time" or "You're a great guy, lets get together soon".
Well I used to think the same until I got a crazy week at work and it took me a couple of days to reply to a txt. When you're very focused/stressed on what you're doing, replying to a txt is the furthest from your mind. Moreso if you wanna make plans with that person and thus have to think about a day you're free.

We'll see if we do meet up next week. This weekend is gonna be dedicated to finishing up the couple of games pilling up! If anyone wanna play Uncharted 3, let me know! My psn is AlcoOriel.
 
I mentioned earlier that I had a one night stand story. It's not so much the sex I want to talk about but moreso how cool my friend is.

A little back story on my friend. Met him on new years and he already is one of my best buds. Sweet, loyal, slight hero complex. And straight lol. First time we went out he actually took me to a gay bar with another friend and we ended up dancing with a drag queen on stage. A class act he is ;)

So anyways, I signed up for Grindr for the first time a little more than a week ago and immediately got a response from a guy. A good deal older than me but at the same time had that high school football coach vibe that made me all the more interested. We end up talking for a couple of hours and he ends up asking me to come over to his place. At this time i'm over at my buddy's playing pool.

Now, i've never done the whole online hookup thing before this and on top of that i'm not used to someone being so flirtatious with me. So at this point i'm a little paranoid and I start talking about it with my friend. With any hesitation whatsover he tells me to go and that its always good to try new things as long as i'm careful.

"But, i'm giving you a 20 minute headstart. After that i'll be right behind you, and if something goes wrong just call me and i'll be there in 30 seconds with my .45 ready."

So I went, and my ginger guardian angel sat vigilant in the Piggly Wiggly parking lot. I ended up having a really good time with the guy everything went smoothly.

When I look back at it I really can't think of anybody else that would've done the same thing for me barring my brother. Needless to say I've bought the last couple of packs of beer whenever I go over to my friends house. Which all have been use for strip pool/beer pong :P
 
confrontational is the wrong word.

he thought he got banned in the past because he's confrontational about his SUUUPER-unique opinions on things, when in reality he got banned because he's an inarticulate, obnoxious douchebag.

Thank you. He threw me under that bus and was a complete fucktard over a tv show. Then was shocked by my being upset and turned it back on me.

I avoided this thread because of trash like him.

Unf Unf Unf

Yeah. What's real bad is we both live in very small towns and from looking at his profile pic I could've sworn I had met him before. I almost asked him if taught at the areas high school or if I knew his son or something. Turns out he was from Savannah so yeah :p

The funniest part was that in his profile pic he was posing as if it were for the sports section of a yearbook. Unnnnnnffff indeed.
 
God I hope tonight goes smoothly for me...*nervous*

I posted that I was "Excited for tonight" on facebook and my guy liked my status. But then my brother was like "Oh geez get yourself a girlfriend already" and I was like "Stop telling me what to do brother".
 
I'm pretty confused. I'm starting to have feelings for a girl. And I am very sure she likes me too. She doesn't know I'm gay (I suddenly don't know anymore myself!). What should I do?

I'm not sure having feelings for a woman doesn't make you gay.
Having feelings for someone does not equal the attraction for the body.
I have a female friend who's straight and always was, and suddenly she found herslef inlove with a woman. She told me a lot of times that she doesn't consider herself a lesbian since she's still attracted to men, and she isn't is this relationship because of her girlfriend's body or the sex - she's with here because she's just an amazing person and loves her.

My opinion anyway...

Oh, and what should you do? That's tricky :P
I'm trying to give a proper advice, but I'm just drawing blanks at the moment :\
Luckily gaygaf will help soon!

Flirt heavily.

We're already doing that and it makes the whole situation more confusing.

Anyway we're in class together (and will be for 2,5 more years) so I can't just do whatever pleases me.

Unless you're a guy like me who somehow manages to miss half the messages and phone calls >_>

Seriously, a friend texted me this morning and I haven't noticed the message icon until few hours later. And I had the phone in my pocket or beside me all the time, I used the phone several times in the meantime and even read few articles on it on my way home. Yet I still managed to miss it.

Just go for it.

How can you be sure that you're a 100% gay and will never want to be in a relationship with a women? My parent's friend, when she divorced her husband after 25+ years of marriage, ended up being in a relationship with her female friend she was staying at at the time. It was a shock for her (for everyone else too) because she never even though about being in a homosexual relationship (especially at the age of ~50).

I never expect a response in five minutes (or even five hours), but if I send several texts over several days and don't get a response to any of them, I'll give up. It's just not worth my time.

Unfortunately it's not that simple. The big issue is if and when I should tell I've only been with men before.
 
And I thought I had you pegged as a princess. ;)

I'll take that, ha.

Well yes, but to be fair the whole thing unfolded over only 2 days... The first one I sent that wasn't replied to was on Wednesday morning and he replied on Thursday night. I'm not expecting much but I've had such a great time each time we met that I'm curious enough to keep at it.

Unfortunately it's not that simple. The big issue is if and when I should tell I've only been with men before.

Ok, from what I think you wrote in this thread previously and as I see it there are two possibilities:
1) You might not be 100% gay and it's totally possible for you to fall for a girl and have a romantic relationship with her, emotionally and physically.
2) She's showing interest in you, something that has not happened to you in a while and thus your attraction to her stems from the fact that you might be feeling lonely and in need of affection. That just means that you might be mistaking strong friendship with romantic feelings.

I don't mean to be mean but I think it's something worth considering, having myself been in the second situation once when I was a baby gay.
 
Can you picture yourself being sexual with her? I've fancied girls before but when it's come to the idea of going on them, ugh no. ;D

I hate people like you :(

I just hate waiting for replies back after hours or days...nothing against you :)

Yes, and as soon as you sort your true feelings and emotions out. She doesn't need to know about your sexual history, but you have to let her make the decision about whether or not she wants to be with a man that's been with men.
 
After section practice, between breathing exercises and working on my solo. Had everything to start off a scene from a band camp porno but I guess I didnt get the hint.

profound. sadness.
Oh My O_O. Ever consider paying your old school a visit lol. Might get some extra long overdue practice in.

You could be bi. Or maybe sexuality is more fluid in certain people.

And why not go for it if you think you have genuine feelings for her?
