Fab gif. What's it from?

Wow, I didn't know salicylate intolerance was a thing. That must be really rough. Did she know about her intolerances when you started dating her or was it something that popped up after? If it was before, how did you handle going out to dinner and things like that? If you eat some whole wheat bread, can you kiss her on the mouth afterwards or will she get sick from the cross contamination? Did you ever reconsider the relationship because of the difficulties her intolerances present?

Missed this, sorry. Didn't know about it before hand, she also has chronic fatiguem which we knew about, but the food intolerances make the symptoms worse. Luckily they are not dire symptoms, just digestive issues and fatigue mainly. So I can eat whatever and then kiss her, no problems, except for her being jealous of my delicious food And no, I have never reconsidered the relationship.

Gay Gaf, what should I do if a person who has mental issues (he isn't retarded, but he isn't normal either..mentally) continuously harasses me on FB and wants to see naked pictures of me, and constantly asks to jerk off with him on skype?

I know he's gay, but every time I ask if he is, he responds by saying "I AIN'T GAY!!"

I just roll with it. I feel bad for the kid because I know he is bit of a social outcast at school, and his pictures that he has on facebook are very depressing looking and just generally sad.

I don't want to offend him, and put him in a deeper and darker hole than the one he's already in... but at the same time I want for him to politely fuck off...while still remaining respectful and be a friend of some sorts... How do I do this?

Block him. His happiness is not your responsibility. Humouring him does him no favours anyway.

You know you've reached a milestone in a relationship when you can fart infront of the BF and it doesn't phase him.

I still try not to fart in front of my bf. I actually hate when people get too comfortable in a relationship and start showing their bad habits (picking your nose, licking the dinner plate, wearing boxers for longing then a day etc) keep it classy people

So, I finally built myself a glass closet (zing!). I put the last silicone touch this morning. What do you guys think? Since there's no home-reno thread and it would be populated by gay guys anyways, I'm posting it here.

Looks very nice.. but it does look like a shower. People going into the house will ask you why you have one in your living room all the time.

Well there's a glass wall that you don't see much in the pic, so it continues for about 4' on the other side. Much like this :

this happens to me but with the beard, I was meaning to shave it clean for the 1st January but the reaction of people I told them I was doing it was so neagitve, I ultimately decided against it..it's not that I don't like the beard anymore but something about not doing what I wanted instead of listetning to everybody else makes me feel a bit bad..

I get told I look much better without a beard (or a very trimmed one) all the time. I don't care, I like myself with a nice beard and that matters more than other people's opinion

So, for those of you who were on last night and caught my dilemma, here's an update:

I got home last night, and, for the first time in our relationship actually yelled at him. I only had a few things to say, but I'm not really one to yell and get angry these days; this was an exception. At any rate, I decided that given the circumstances (he came and told me right after it happened, said he was willing to take what came, the fact taht he was genuinely remorseful, etc) I'm going to give this another chance.

He knows he fucked up, and he knows my stipulations for staying. There will be some changes in the relationship, and he knows that I will not (and simply, cannot) go through with anything like this again. It will take me a while to regain trust in him and to move through the emotions involved with this.

As I told him, the benefit to dealing with (metaphorical) shit like this is that if you do it right, you can grow some good flowers out of it. We'll see how this goes, but I'm committed and tenuously hopeful.

...what happened? All I see is an ellipses where a post used to be.

 

[Wilsongt]

Well, after talking to the guy my friend wanted to set me up with on New Year for a couple of weeks via text, we actually met up today was coffee.

Nice guy. Kinda cute. Sparks didn't fly all over the space, but he was pleasant to talk with. He's a bit younger than what I go for, but personality is an important thing. Bit of a country boy. Ex-Marine, so there maybe be those issues to deal with. Thankfully he was never in Iraq/Afghanistan, but he did see fighting else where.

Seems like a good person to keep chatting with and see what goes from there. At least we have some things in common... and I might have a small thing for sorta redneck, country boys.

Only downfalls are he is a smoker, and essentially broke. But, apparently he can cook well.

 

[excelforward]

Long story short, but the boyfriend and I have an open relationship with some rules attached. He violated one of the rules with a close friend of ours to the point where I would consider it cheating. I took down the post last night because I as in a vulnerable spot and didn't think that the positive feedback and empathy could outweight the possible "you're in an open relationship you get what you get" sort of posts.

I'm feel better now, thankfully.

I have a terrible weakness for country boys, having grown up in farm country myself. The smoking part, though, would be a deal breaker for me unfortunately.

Hey, I appreciate it. I hope this doesn't make him look like an ass. It really was a careless mistake on this end. We'll get through it.

I started as a security guard 14 years ago, always stayed in the security field and got promotions along the way. My job is basically the only thing that I'm sure I'm good at and that I love. And luck made it, it pays extremely well.

 

[sphinx]

considering deleteing my online profile...again.

It seems I attract guys that really aren't my type so I find myself constantly saying "sorry" and coming off like the asshole, arrogant guy

The guys I'd like to date do not reciprocate the interest, they might have a date with me if I insist over months and nothing better comes in their paths... I will happily court nice guys but beg? no way.

not sure what to do...

Well, you're under no obligation to be into someone just because they message you. It's part of the game. Just reject, and feel fine about it.

Truly a milestone

sometimes is a fun game, but after a while I grow tired of it, like now... yes, if you stick around, you'll eventually get everything: compliments, rejection, bad dates, good dates, good sex, bad sex... but after a while it all seems so worthless and a waste of time.

Guess it depends what you're after - if you're there to meet someone to date it takes time. Don't invest too much of your time or energy into it and don't take any rejection to heart. I was on the verge of deleting my profile for the same reason when I met my bf on there.

Unless you're big on picking up or finding guys at gay bars and stuff it really is just the easiest way to meet. I just treated it like a screening service "nope... nope... maybe... nope... nope.. block.. nope.."

What's your type exactly?

 

[sphinx]

but there are no bars in this... village... plus, I am way too shy to talk to random strangers in bars to buy them booze and then hope to get in bed with them.

what I want to do?

.- find a profile with nice pics, someone not into crazy stuff, non smoker, normal guy.
.- show interest and see the guy is also interested.
.- exchange some messages
.- meet in a date and have good chemistry and go to bed and develop a friendship.

that's all, is it too much to ask? I am not deluded to think the love of my life is somewhere in one of this online sites.

thing is, I like very few people... I admire their beauty or whatever are their strong points but for me to be sure I want to have a date... jeez, it's like 1 profile in 50, it may sound as if I am extremely picky but what can I do if 90% of those profiles are either smokers, or too young/old, or extremely thin/fat or something that I don't feel attracted to?

it's strange but completely normal, decent looking guys around my age are hard to come buy.

What's your type exactly?

this is my search data:

Age: 34-42 (I am 35 and I sometimes like younger guys but that's rather an exception)
Bodytype: Normal, Small Belly, Atheltic, Muscular
Height: Tall (around 6'3 and above is a plus but not a must)
No smoker, No drugs.

anything else, (like role in bed, religion, cock size, ethnics, job) isn't relevant enough to even mention it..

am I too picky?

 

[daemonic]

My biggest frustration is that even if I click with a guy online and the conversation is good, more than half the time it just fades and doesn't actually go anywhere, even when numbers have been exchanged.

I also noticed that guys also seem to stop responding when you propose meeting up in person, even if you've been chatting for weeks and it seems like it could be a good match.

EXACTLY, you use gayromeo as well, right? I think I remember you from some months back.

I thought it was just me but that's exactly how it happens there, word by word, I am not sure how to avoid it without needing to beg for weeks for a date.

 

[p_xavier]

am I too picky?

Definitely not. My list has 10 times the criteria that you have. But yes, it sure sucks to find someone online. Even if you don't intend to have expectations, you still do and end up disappointed.

I was complaining about how many guys were acting, but I realized that I was acting the same way. Just don't put too much thinking in handling guys online.

Maybe you are picky but theres nothing wrong with that - only thing worse is to settle just because you're getting impatient . All a dating site is, is another option for finding someone. if you become fixated on it supplying you with a life partner within a time limit I think you'll just get bitter about it. How big is your

city?

Although those sites like Gaydar and Manhunt etc having their share of total weirdos, they also have a good ratio of normal guys too (in my experience). If that's your pic you look pretty hot so I dunno why you'd have trouble getting some good looking guys after you. If you're after scruffier beefier guys you could try Scruff or Growlr app too.

This. I just went through this last week. We exchanged over 20 messages, I suggesting meeting up and he stopped responding after replying almost immediately prior to that. A week goes by and I followed up with a '?'. His response was "Yeah sure." followed by nothing. Didn't offer his name or anything so I just let it go.

Yeah I joined PR when I was in Scandinavia last year, good memory.

 

[PowderedToast]

i came out to my mother as bisexual earlier this night, and it's really shaken her. it's fucking horrible to see how upset and shocked she is over it. fucking hell

i genuinely didn't think she would respond this way

an update on this

i spoke to her today. whenever she says anything regarding my coming out she prefaces it with "i don't want you to think i'm discouraging you/dissuading you", until eventually late last night she came to the conclusion that she wasn't going to say anything at all in case i misinterpret it.

what is going on here? do i just wait for her to come to terms with it now? i don't know how to act or respond because tbh i'm fucking blown away that this is even an issue for her. she has always said "it's okay if you're gay" all through my life, but clearly saying something and it actually being a reality are two different things

god knows the response the rest of my family will have

I am not exactly sure I am the "good guy" here, I mean, this is a game after all and just like some guys showed interested at one point and stopped caring after a couple of messages, I am sure I have done that at least once, not that I am proud of that but there are always many factors involved... insecurities, mood in a particular moments, etc. that's why I am not exactly mad when everything just fades away, it happens... but then it's a bit too much and I think " o.k. can I please get a normal date for once dammit?" I want coffee/Beer -> Chemistry -> Bed -> Friendship, that's it"

I'd give her some time to process everything before approaching her about it again. I also had an unexpected reaction from my parents and it took years before they could talk about it.
