Ack, beautiful women! My gay insides are melting!

Spoiler

Impeccable taste, Sibylus.

Masculinity and femininity are tired concepts that long outlived their welcome.

Spoiler

Like Madonna.

Nah, it's just a matter of not getting too invested and trying to tie people's worth to these concepts. It might be a good idea to think of them more as aesthetic modes than social categories.

Just wanted to share something that just happened

My relationship with my brother is not the best, we barely talk, and there is certain... hate, because i'm gay

I'm almost crying, my brother called me at work to tell me her daughter was just born today and want m to go see her.

The last time we had a good conversation as last year, and we had the typical topic "are you serious you're gay?" (i'm 25, i'm dead serious)

I'm really nervous, happy, but nervous

 

[Elitist1945]

IDK why but lately I've been listening to old Usher songs a lot. Scream is fucking fantastic.

Daddy Basch coming in HD :'(

Daddy Balthier

His name is Cid.

Edit:
Hope they give Al-Cid's chest hair the care and respect it deserves.

With the FFXII announcement, it made me think about one thing that I liked about the Ivalice games: the sexualization (of sorts) of the male characters. XD

Vagrant Story and Final Fantasy XII both had not only attractive male characters, but had them wearing tight leather pants, exposing their chest, shirtless both hairy and hairless, tight pants too low and in some cases even exposing their butt cheeks.

Was and is kinda refreshing.

I need to like, get over my awkwardness/fears and just come out already because I feel like if I don't soon I'm just never gonna find myself a nice man. I'm 19 and I've never had a relationship, and I don't know why this is planted in my mind, but I feel like a relationship in the late teens/early twenties is really good/prime? lmao

Well I asked my man out when I had 19, but we first met when I was 18. What I can say is that I definitely wasnt looking for a boyfriend! It just showed at my skype and I kept going out with him, having fun, until BAM... I was mad in love with him, and he was with me too

I feel like I'd be too awkward and unappealing with online dating lol. Worth a shot though.

Just have fun, and meet new people. That's it.
If I've learnt anything by being a male stripper is that there is tastes for everything in the world, so being awkward about yourself you put you nowhere.

 

[CornBurrito]

Hrmm... what does it mean to be "asexual, but homo-romantic"?

No sex, but cuddling? Kissing?

You mean in terms of behaviours? Maybe. There isn't a one-answer-fits-all for what romantic aces want to do with a partner.

When I'm having trouble coming up with a design, or I'm otherwise stuck, I'll start working on the back or buttocks. Using these as starting points, the ideas seem to flow very smoothly for me.

It's not really something I understand myself. But the designs for many of this game's characters started this way...

I love Yoshida's designs. I wish Square would use him for another "big" game that's got characters with normal proportions (I love FFXIV's designs, but it's not a game for me). I haven't played either the of the Bravely games (I didn't enjoy the demo) but this guy's design is just...

People thinking that the entire marriage spanning rumors and an album reflecting on those problems are all a massive long term scheme with numerous parties privy to the plan over several years keeps me up at night. That is far harder to believe than the idea that Jay Z really did cheat but ok.

yeah i just don't really have that much friends to do stuff with and even if I hang out with the ones I have one day the next day I'm already incredibly bored.

I tried shiny hunting in Pokemon as a distraction but it's too time consuming with little results and it pissed me off lol.

Tinder guy requested we push the date to next week.

I have a sneaking and unpleasant sense of deja vu.

Plus, it seems like this guy has a ton of friends and is very busy bouncing between them, and so a relationship is lower on his priorities. He hasn't said so, just what I suspect from what has been said in our conversations.

Outlook downgraded.

Be careful to not assume too much or write anything off yet (not saying you have). However, it's probably not a bad thing to have your expectations tempered. Let us know how it goes if/once it happens.

Man, FFXII PS4 looks so pretty but I do not have it in me to endure that game a 2nd time.

I'm gonna sit it out, and hope it does well enough for SE to make a Basch x Balthear spin-off.

I know the feeling, though all my hookups started as friends or sex, then gradually got more serious from that. Dunno if I would go out with someone specially looking for a date.

 

[LambdaTeos]

Yep first time, it's only my brother and me, but we have issues, so it made me happy that he called me to go visit, sadly, I couldn't yesterday, had to stay late at work, but I will go today

Does Atlanta have a huge LGBT population? Most of the gay guys on Instagram I see are from the ATL area.

 

[Tuck]

First day of summer rec league got rained out. Played two innings of kickball then the rain started - unfortunately with lightning, which is why we had to cancel it. Got soaked walking back to the subway station. Then went to a bar, met some cool people.

Its weird though how many people I've met that are in their mid 30s and still act like they're 21. Going out partying and drinking 3 times a week, being super promiscuous. I guess thats just the kind of people the league attracts, you don't really see anyone who has settled down. I have no idea if that speaks to the larger LGBT community or not though.

So, some thoughts on this.

I didn't ask him what he was looking for on tinder. Probably should have. I'm fairly certain its not a hookup. Either a relationship or friendship, but he seems like he has a ton of friends already and it seems like he's too busy for a relationship. Maybe just conversations then? Unfortunately, there is no way in hell I'm going down the friendship route again. It ended badly last time, and I learned my lesson. Tinder/OkCupid and POF are not for making friends. At least, not for me.

Also, I sort of lose interest after talking to someone exclusively online for a while, because I don't want to get attached only to finally meet and realize "Oh, this guy isn't who I thought he was, sucks that I wasted all that time."

Best of luck and enjoy the time with your brother and nephew!

Yes.

You'll find that most large cities in the South (Charlotte, Atlanta, New Orleans, Houston, Dallas, Orlando, Tampa) have huge gay populations because the outlying rural areas are so incredibly backward on social issues.

Same here in Utah. SLC has a big LGBT population (or so I've heard. I don't get down to SLC much)

Oh I see what you are talking about. About going the friendship route, you say friendship but you already had second intentions right? And about making friends on Tinder, I wouldnt know because I've never used myself, but it cant be much different than chat rooms I used in the past. I normally asked people out to do something I wanted, like going hiking, and we normally went together and had fun, nothing like a date at all.
Or having sex ofc, but then you shouldnt be looking to be friends with who you fuck, at least not casual fucking.

 

[JCX]

I'm finally starting to get a better idea of what I want out of a relationship. Still isn't going as well as I'd like, but having a direction eases things up a bit.

Tbh I'm kind of annoyed by people who go looking for friends on these sites - especially POF and OkCupid. They're dtating sites. That is their purpose. Its fucking annoying talking to someone, getting your hopes up only to be hit with "Oh yeah I didn't tell you this, but I'm on this dating site looking for friends."

I suppose the lesson is: keep your expectations low and never try.
