Melbourne 2007
I am in my mid-forties, single and not quite ready to kick the bucket. As anyone in similar situation can tell you, it's a jungle out there. The danger is not Osama Bin Laden but my friend best friend. Or this friend of friend, or my best friend wife who has a lovely single young men friend and would I mind if they dropped in?
I am not sure what drives seemingly sedate a young man to desire meaningful relationships with an ugly old bloke like me. It must be biology, which can play dreadful trick.
A good mate, an affluent, semi-retired nurse (at the age of 35?) met Peter, and happily in the relationship since. Or Andy, meets an attractive, handsome young men. When the fling is over, he becomes nasty and keeps phoning his family, causing trouble. Some gay men can be so unreasonable.
Let me assure you that I have nothing against gay men (remember! I am one of them!!!!)

Actually, I’ve had a boyfriend, a lovely man (but then, the relationship end-up not even we started!) He tends to be a trifle suspicious, like many members of our sex. And at times he can be kind, nice, generous, bossy and vain.
However, he is really a lovely man, really.
The other night we had a dinner at one of the fancy restaurant in the city centre, we could talk and talked, we had a lot in comman. I don't claim to be a pin-up boy but I do wash, shave and iron my shirts and strongly resent any claims to the contrary.
My lovely man and I get along very nicely: at that time, I have no intention of swapping him for some blonde, nor have I implied or insinuated such an ambition.
Things have calmed down now. However, he wants us to discuss our inner feelings and me to express my emotions. I have strong opinions on footy games, movies, food, or even religion even, and I am happy for is to talk about them, but inner feeling?
This was always the sort of thing that gay man discussed with each other without requiring their partner to get involved. It worked well enough for my father's generation and for mine. Why change now? I suspect gay man want to copy the younger generation, but I reckon that too much honesty is the cause of their high divorce rate!!!!
My lovely man is an attractive and glamorous men, live in South Yarra, few block away from mine, a fashionista, I believed. I tend more to the Alf Garmett style, but we enjoy each other's company. I have a few good mates and we like to get together occasionally and solve some of the world's problems. My lovely man also has some old friends and new friend, they meet regularly on the internet gay.com....
My lovely man, and I had agreed, that both of us can't be a lover or partner, this because we having some problem in bed and also I am not skinny enough (not that I am fat! Just that he likes skinny man instead). But, instead he likes me to be his "f**k buddy" (if you know what I meant) It's the gay things, you won't heard that in hetro life....
My mates all agree that gay men have change and not necessarily for better. When we were young, boys were great fun, always good for a bit of a lark. Age is so unkind to some gay men. But it’s not to my lovely man. Sensible and calm mostly, attractive, perhaps a trifle b*@&*, and still good for a lark...............
Till now, hopes you still enjoy reading and sharing my journey…..
Chow....... Have a lovely weekend and don’t get too drunks and ops! Be safe, play safe and enjoy!
