:welcome: Have fun finding something hot on the site while you wait for your chance at the real thing.
It must be hard living in an island with few people- but maybe there is someone there you will find? Hopefully you get to travel and meet more people. Then you can touch and do even more! Good luck!

Just finished Black Mirror episode 4 so I've got this playing right now-

Belinda Carlisle: Heave Is A Place On Earth
Youtube Video

I like to go for a long swim to relieve stress.
Or I could listen to some chill tunes while taking a nice long walk.

Hillary may be a tough choice to swallow- but Trump has been consistently worse. His policies are incoherent ramblings, he is a misogynist and racist, he brags about not paying taxes, swindling people who work for him, bankrupting multiple business ventures…the list goes on and on. Let's not forget he is a serial liar who has made the truth a joke in this election, and he is a hate-monger who is supported by the KKK.

Waving an (inverted) rainbow flag does not make you a supporter of gay rights. Representing the party which has consistently opposed gay rights and making statements that you want to undo marriage equality shows you are solidly against LGBT people. So, no, I don't think people should vote for him. The world would be a more dangerous place if he leads America for the next four years.

Menog - Emotions https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nS_PXTEtyBw
My favorite song. It reminds me on my bf who was killed 2 years ago.

Wow. Sorry to hear that. That's just terrible.  :hug:
(I mean the loss, not the song.)

Bastille: Good Grief

Got it on loop at the moment!   :cheers:

The way I understood it is that he meant not being the kind of person who will be in a relationship while keeping an eye out for the next better prospect and jumping ship the minute someone hotter or better comes along.

Wanting more and better is good for some things, but if you apply that to a relationship then it might wind up that you'll never be happy and have a long term connection with one person.

If I'm wrong, QCDelights can just clarify.

@jamieka:

I just really can't decide, I don't really want either of them to become president!

In cases like this- my advice if you'll take it is to go with the lesser evil. You can't change the fact that one of them will win- but at least you can make your vote count by making sure the worst one doesn't become your president. I think it would be clear to you which is the worst of two bad choices.

Thanks for the links! I'll check it out then.

Catch Hell 2014

_Story of Reagon (Ryan Phillippe) who is a washed up young actor who accepted an indie film with location in Shreveport, Louisiana. A neurotic husband who knows that Reagon shagged his wife pretended to be a production staff and fetch Reagon from his hotel.

Reagon instead of being brought to the shooting location site was kidnapped and brought to a swamp hut where he was tortured and blackmail.

His only mean of escape is to seduced one of his kidnapper, a gay guy, Junior (Stephen Louis Grush) who really wants to bone him.

5/10_

Aww. Premise sounds interesting and I really like Ryan Philippe….why just a 5? What went wrong? Is it still worth checking out?

Wow. Thanks for all your thoughts and replying to my comments. I agree with what you've said. There's a lot of pressure to conform to stereotypes- both from straight people and from the gay community itself.

It's utterly ridiculous of course, but sadly it's also human nature for people to want to box you into something they can easily understand. Well,to that I say it's their problem, not yours.

In my country, being gay is automatically connected to wanting to be a woman, and wanting feminine things. Which is ridiculous of course. People- gay or straight- come with many different interests, styles, types etc. You should be free to be the kind of person you want to be- regardless of what others say or think.

As to that good friend of yours- I can only hope he manages to get over his hangups. Life's too short to be caught up for too long in the drama of accepting your sexuality- whether bi, gay or straight or other.

Wow. So hard to choose just one. I can't give a final answer just yet- but off the top of my head I would have to agree with Big Guns (as mentioned earlier). It was very memorable for me.

For sheer story along with hot sex- I would have to also vote for Flesh and Blood (from All Worlds). One of the greats!  :cheesy2:

One of DC's best power couples!  ;D
Issue #2 is coming out this week! I hope it's as good as the first one.

@illybilly5:

citizens from other countries ought to have the right to vote in the US election, because who americans elect has such powerful consequences on the rest of the world. electing trump would be much worse than bush, if that is even imaginable. so please vote for hillary, even if she is not ideal. she's by far the best on offer, both for the US and for the rest of us around the globe.

Yes! I couldn't agree with this more! She is not ideal by any means, but at least she will not be likely to start a nuclear war, she is not a puppet of the Russians, and her party has consistently supported gay rights.

Not even the Log Cabin Republican gays want to vote for Trump!

@brianboru72:

Pietro Boselli is the poster boy for being blessed beyond all fairness- he's gorgeous, smart and oozing sex appeal.  :cheesy2:

He's got his own YouTube channel, and his workout video is hotter than some of the porn we have here!   
Youtube Video

That is so true, I lobe everything about him. Habe you watched his mtv episode in Australia? I lobe his humor in that episode!

Yup! Loved his videos because it shows some of his personality and sense of humor which just makes him even HOTTER! 
He must have had all sorts of good karma in a previous life to be so blessed! 

Well- thanks for sharing your experiences. It was an interesting read.
Sadly, it sounds like you've been caught up with people who were either closeted, or just couldn't bring themselves to accept their attraction to men unless they were safely drunk as an excuse.

Also- thanks to movies and TV- people have some preconceived notions of how gay men should act and when you don't fit those stereotypes you throw them off. 
I think it's good there are people like you around to shake things up and show them that there isn't just one "type" of gay person. I hope that's some consolation for you. I can understand your frustration.

A fellow Peanuts fan!  :hug2: There's nothing that brings a smile like Snoopy and the gang. May the memories of those times stay with you, and maybe you can make new ones as you go through life.

Thanks for that! Now I remembered my own favorite song- from the Snoopy:Musical.  :love:

A song that never gets old, and you are never too old to enjoy.

I've not been around too long- but I've had some fun here on the forums. I tend to just look for topics I'm interested in or curious about and jump right in.
I spend a ton of time in front of my PC so I can drop in and out often.  :laugh:
Sorry to hear you're feeling lonely. When that happens to me- I just try to chill out with some good music and take a long walk. Or hang out in the mall either with friends or people watch by myself.

Wow. You've been through a lot. So sorry things have been tough in the relationship side. (I should let someone on another thread here read this- he is 35 and is terrified he will end up alone).

A heart attack is a major scare- and it's a shame your partner wasn't capable of dealing with it. But I guess better it was before you got married and all.

My thoughts after all this, Jazz, are maybe you should focus on yourself for a while- find things to enjoy by yourself or with friends. You haven't mentioned much about friends- so I just have to say that they are a blessing when you're single. Or find some hobby where you can meet new people. You are in your 50's but that doesn't mean you stop growing and improving yourself and having fun. You don't need to be in a relationship to do any of that.

Best of luck!

@Eridanos:

Yes it was harsh…but sometimes people need harshness instead of sympathy or pity.  Problem is, 'Sam' is putting himself in a very delicate situation.  There are people that, once they realize you have no self-love, no self-respect...will trap you and seduce you and make you love them hard and fast and then...they will take advantage from you. In Sam's case, he sounds so sad and desperate that he seems capable of great folly for just some morsels of love that might not even be real.

He needs to stop pitying himself, because that's what he transmits to others, and believe me...there's a very fine line between pity and contempt.

HE also seems to have absorbed many issues: ageism, lack of confidence, the mistaken idea that you need to be in a relationship and if you are single by a certain age, then you're a hopeless spinster.  That is all bullcrap, both homo and heteronormative nonsense we need to get rid off in order to fully mature and enjoy ourselves as individuals.

I couldn't agree more with what you've said here! Ageism is insidious. It's a struggle to come to terms with the fact that we will all get older. And the sooner we accept and make peace with that, the better we'll be.

Also- the sooner we make getting into a relationship less of a race and more of an adventure, the better for us. I know some people who cling desperately to a relationship where they are miserable as hell, JUST to avoid becoming single again. 

And alma- I get where you're coming from. You strike me as a nice, kind person. And a couple years back I would've been with you- I couldn't say anything harsh even if it's what was needed. The intent wasn't to be mean, it was to help. Harshness can often work to push people to act where kindness and coddling will not. Hopefully that's the effect here.
