Being called Bro

When there is this guy, whom you have a feeling is gay/bi. You kinda text him every once in a while cose you find him hot, and then one of your friend has seen him on Tinder, you kinda keep your hopes when you text him, especially when he texts back so well and holds a conversation (although its mostly about fitness, and you being a foodie dread the topic). Everything seems to be going so well, and you imagine things in your head, and he drops the "Bro" bomb!

I don't know why all these straight men have started "Bro"ing each other, and one of my exes used to hate it, and now I know why. Its such a turn off when the guy you like simply makes you a "Brother" cose you know, you are a man!.

I am guilty of "Bro"ing a few guys if they do sniff up to me. Its like a clear yet indirect way of saying "I am not into you", in fact, even gay men use it quite often. "Dude", "Man", "Bro", as if that makes you all macho. Yeah, well, it does sound a lot better than "Dear" "Darling" "Sweetheart". But when things are going well, and you expect to cozy up, "What else, Bro?" makes you cringe on the inside.

I did use it to cover up/ tease when my ex, Kel and I were texting without coming out to each other. He simply asked me to call him "Kel", and I happily obliged. I called him "Bro" initially when I clearly had feelings for him, may be because I didn't want him to know how I felt about him. When we got cozy, I think I kinda felt it was time to get out of the "Bro" zone.

I might be a bit rude these days, when he calls me "Bro", I simply cut off talking to him, and he isn't someone who texts until texted to, and that kinda sucks, cose he doesn't take an initiative. May be he just isn't into me. Having said that, I really wish he or any hot guy doesn't call me "Bro" ever again. Bro, is an official cock-blocker!

End of a time

It's been so long since I wrote. But then when I see people read my blog, and say how much they relate. It compels me to write more. I thought that I don't have much to write anymore. Same old issues, same old stories. I even didn't want to write thinking that the issues I mentioned would probably dilute the matter with too many posts. But then I write today because something recently struck me hard. A conversation with a love interest who is looking for a partner, realized that I talked a lot about my previous love .Which I didn't know was so obvious. But I clearly didn't move on. After may be discussing for a whole hour, he asked if I am looking for a lover or a partner? Because you don't have much time until you spend time loving someone who may never be your partner. That's when I realized that I for all these years, haven't had a proper romance, and I am already out of that age. I am old enough to settle down and look for a partner, instead of ...

Walk of Shame

usually walk of shame happens when you have had sex with a total stranger, and you just regret to have done that while getting back home in the morning. But, to me it was different. Some few months back, I met this guy, he was really smart. well behaved and very talented. Mind you, I didn't meet him on any apps, but for work. Everytime he comes to work, he gives special attention to me, while other men "see", he "watches" me. While other man just touch, he "feels" me. He used to openly make it clear that he is there to see me and me only. I used to feel so special. But I never had the guts to reciprocate. Partly because the reputation he has for being a player. he is extremely smart, very soft spoken and has that charm. Girls fall for him so easy. I used act like I don't like him, but all my peers started noticing the attention I get from him. He talks only to me, the way he looks at me, how closely he stands, how he gets pissed if I have a figh...

The Average Gay Fat kid

To become a self proclaimed Hot Gay Indian man doesn't take much efforts. It happens quite often. The fact that the gay world is driven by the looks comes from the general quote that "women go by the words and Men go by the looks", Gay or Straight, I am sure that rule works well. it is also by the fact that the self proclaimation is quite easy for us. Men, in general, with all our testosterone end up thinking that we are much good looking than we really are. women on the other hand, always end up thinking otherwise (and yet we say, Men are visually stimulated). For someone who was but a budding "Man" back then, as a teenager, I was wondering if I was "Man" enough to call myself fat. But everyone around me sure did. A teenager who had bountyful fat flowing from all sides, the only feature that I was proud of must be my cute face and milky white skin, along with thick hair and feline eyesbrows (If only you were a girl, you would have been pretty, I ha...
