Well after not answering all yesterday and not answering to a few texts today-before I had chance to rant at him-he just texted and said he had Covid. So if true, not an &hole after all, and if a lie, he finally figured out how to get me to stop texting-although he could have just blocked me.

Several times lately on Growlr guys whose profiles don't show mileage or list a city have texted me. During the conversation they ask "where I'm from." But I have my city listed ( or at least a close suburb -it's where I used to live, and it's fairly close to where I am now) and my mileage. So why are these guys asking my location? I almost always read a guy's profile to see the information before contacting them. Are they not reading the profile and just going by pictures? Or are they fake accounts of some type? What is the consensus of the Forum?

Well I know I shouldn't. But later today I'm going to text the ghoster from an alternate phone number of mine (in case he's blocked my original number). I'm not going to curse. I'm just going to say he Is obviously not as much of a stand-up guy as I thought after ghosting me.

My Dad used to call his shaving kit a dap kit (so do my brother and I). I've run across people who have no idea what I mean when I say it. An older friend once told me it was a military-possibly naval-term. For those not on PrEP and trying to play safe-I don't think coconut oil is safe for latex condoms. I'd never pack lube without putting it in a baggie of some type --although come to think of it-currently it is in a small chest in my trunk in a flimsy Walmart bag. But in myvluggage it would definitely be ziplocked or the equivalent.

I shouldn't have gone to the trouble to look him up. We texted off and on for several hours yesterday. He wanted me to come over last night. But I had just eaten a big pasta meal and was bloated. He said yesterday he might be free after 1 PM today to meet. I told him I'd be up at 10 AM. I text him at 10 to say good morning. I hear nothing back. I text again at around 5 pm and 7:30 pm. And still nothing. This is ridiculous. He's the one who contacted me 1st. All he had to say-whether it was truth or a lie that work got too busy. Instead he's ghosted. Aside from being gay or bisexual, I wonder if he was unreliable to his former wife. Too bad I can't pick her brain. It's just upsetting as not that many people are interested in me. And he said he was. And I could have gone for him. Plus in our first talks -he even said it would be nice to make a friend even if we weren't compatible for more intimate things. ☹️☹️☹️

Is he wearing mascara?

Yea!! It's fixed. I couldn't post for hours.

I have had cataracts for several years-finally getting the first taken care of middle of October. I only bring this up to say I don't see well. When this thread popped up. I initially read 'Out' as 'Gut'. I thought," oh it's about chubby guys in Queens. "

This was discussed in the past. It's time to revisit the subject. Scenario: Someone texts you or you text someone on Scruff, Growlr, Silver Daddys, Grindr, or etc. You talk about meeting. Since it can be hard to make plans, you exchange phone numbers. Do you then try to search his phone number to see if you can find out anything on him? My vote is you need to protect yourself -so yes.

I'm not sure I'd meet him (well I def wouldn't because I'm a top). But I mean the guy obviously has self-esteem issues. He classifies himself as athletic when he's obviously muscular. 😉😉

I'd say easier to buy once you arrive. But just as an FYI-I think Swiss Navy has the most secure top that doesn't leak. I've had a mostly unused bottle for probably over two years in my trunk-no leakage.

I think Alex is kinda cute too.

Who is stealing whose brand?

(This is a special interjection in the current thread - @mike carey Was Gadzook known in Australia ?) (We now rejoin the thread already in progress)

Stop distributing my picture without my leave. You'll be hearing from my attorneys.

I'm sure I'm not the only one to notice this. To clarify-I've been off most of the apps for months except Growlr, and I don't use Growlr much because while I'm an overweight bear, I'm not that much into overweight bears. But even before this several month break-I probably hadn't used Grindr very much in over a year. Why you ask-#1 the amount of ads is horrendous on a free account. #2) Whomever the original owners sold it to, they've made the premium features much too expensive for my budget. And it's sad because Scruff and Grindr were the apps with the handsomest guys in my area. Scruff is still useable, but I don't like the last few updates.

So I thought I'd share The first is Ordinary by Alex Warren. The second is Calum Scott's Biblical as sung by the Welsh Men's Choir John's Boys

Try what? In any case--

I'm sorry I didn't understand the abbreviation BF-it seems like I should know it. But unfortunately all I'm getting is white noise. The terms "significant other," "sweetheart," and "snookums" are also a source of mental static more's the pity.

No career and no money to hire.

I'm not sure how much they would really care. And if I were a provider, and my client seemed fairly knowledgeable about how sessions go, wasn't very nervous, etc., I'd probably assume they had hired before. I don't really see the point of telling most people unless you know they have a similar 'hobby.' I especially don't see the point of telling someone on a first date. lf I consider a slightly different but related scenario-if I were straight and met a woman on a casual date for the first time, I can in no way picture myself telling her about all my previous sexual experiences whether those were 'free' or bought and paid for.

When I posted this, I didn't know who the young man was. His name is Danell Leyva. He's 33 years old. This was at the 2016 Olympics. And even better (per Wikipedia ) "On October 11, 2020, for National Coming Out Day, Leyva revealed via Twitter that he identifies as bisexual and pansexual.[19]" Well guys, I guess I'm officially off the market as I've decided to marry Danell and make an honest man of him. We'll be registered at Costco.

It's definitely confusing. But the link you @azdr0710 shared above is actually the (apparently former) boyfriend once known as MaiconMax.
