Meander

It’s upsetting to save a newly bought shirt for a Friday night in anticipation of a date that is really just an excuse for a one-night you-know-what, and be cancelled on because of a very good and honest reason (I’m sure). If I was less hygienic, I’d probably get in the habit of wearing the same new shirt the following day because you’ll never know when you’re going to get lucky. And what is the deal with new shirts anyway. I don’t know what but I know that it’s important to be at least OK-looking, especially if you have some serious zit issues. At the very least, you could wear something new and try not to look terrible.

I love my bed but I don’t feel like sleeping on it on some Saturdays and I know I’m such a bore about what a huge deal Saturdays are, no need to point that out. I would say that it’s a promiscuous gay guy-thing, the not wanting to sleep on one’s own bed on Saturdays, but I’m sure that is more of a promiscuous person-thing. But if you can imagine the difficulty of finding a non-slut, honest and discreet (this is a quality that may anger some of Us but let’s face it, discreet is one of almost everyone’s top qualifications) partner, then you can probably Find It In Your Heart to understand why most homos are such bores about being loveless, depressed, suicidal, etfuckingcetera.

About the only time I ever got close to having a decent (and by decent, I mean not much whoring issues involved) relationship was when I found it in my heart to log in to some site that mainly exists as congress for single boys, which is really a sad site. But you know who’s sadder. And the aversion to sleep in your own bed leaves you no choice but to go to that other bed, the one where there’s strobe lights and disrobing on ledges.

So what I’m probably trying to say is that I wouldn’t want my wearing of a new shirt to go to waste, and that somebody other than me ought to appreciate that I took the effort to wear something new, which is arguably pointless. Or it could simply be that I’m attempting to make an introductory statement that is meant to lead to the idea that looking for a relationship in the wrong places is just as wasteful as wearing a new shirt for a date in order to look nice. All of these sound pretty stupid to me. So allow me to try another approach. This was supposed to be about having, finding or being in gay relationships and I’ve obviously failed to drive at any point. So I probably should have just very plainly stated, ‘It’s very hard for gay guys to look for a decent relationship’. This post, like the thing it very vaguely meant to take on, is a futile effort.

  1. Such a long post for just a new shirt. :P

    It’s not so much as the “don’t want to sleep on my bed on a Saturday” thing, it’s more of “I want someone in my bed on a Saturday” thing.

    Beneath the futile effort is a nice buildup of words. It’s feels awesome to read between the lines. A new shirt is just a new shirt, but we all know it’s probably just an excuse to cover up the whole “looking for relationship in the wrong” places thing. I always do it, and not just with new shirts.

    Ok I have no idea what the hell I’m saying now haha.

  2. perhaps a relationship is not what we are/I am/they are/you are/ really looking for

  10. bka kasi ndi talaga para sayo yung nabili mong shirt..

  11. paglalakihan mo rin ang tshirt na yan. magbabody build ka at lalaki ang katawan mo. darating ka sa stage na mawawala ang pimples mo.

    or, marerealize mong it is when you’re at your lousiest that the man of your dreams actually arrives at your doorstep.

  12. i agree with you, 99 percent. the remaining 1 is for saying that this post is futile.
