I was in a party last week where most of the attendees were gay men but mainly of the pepper type (mga paminta!). I was glad I immediately struck a conversation with a younger guy (all of them are younger than me now) who had his own events company. Anyhow, he said he was waiting for his friend so I decided to just hang out with him and chat for a while.
Well, the interesting thing was this friend he was waiting for turned out to be this cute guy with beautiful eyes and a horny sense of humor! Anyway, after setting aside the niceties (and maybe because they had something to drink already), Mr. Cute Guy started complaining to us about his nonexistent lovelife! And of course, we were shocked! I mean, gay men are not blind, and they are still men! If they see a cute guy, it will not take a second for them to pounce on the prey. Seriously?! We asked him. He said, yeah, and down came the list of things he wanted from another guy.
Basically, he was just asking for someone like him - in interests, educational background, social status and wealth. But he said he wanted someone not in his social circle. (From the back of my mind - Yeah, because you've slept with all of them already, you whore!) Well, turned out, his friend, Mr. Events Guy also fancied Mr. Cute Guy but was too shy because he knew he'd just get rejected. (Which Mr. Cute Guy denied immediately.) Mr. Cute Guy was even thinking of just settling for Mr. Right Now but we both said NOOOOO. We told him to just be polite and turn down those you really don't fancy. We all get rejected anyway, and it just makes it worse if you lead them on.
A lot of the guys in that party were checking him out because he really had the bearing and the face but he purposely stood behind a wall to hide from them. (See! How can you find a bf when you hide everytime an opportunity presents itself!) He also said he didn't want anymore call center guys, or nurses, or people from his gym. (Yeah, you've effectively crossed out 90% of the gay crowd in Manila.) Worse, he wanted the guy to come from certain schools only! (Ok, since I went to Poveda and Assumption, I'm out of his list already). Mr. Events Guy and I could just sigh. We need not ask anymore why he could not find a bf. His demands are just too ridiculous.
Anyhow, I didn't want to hear any more of his rants on that topic since it was useless advising him. He was set on his ways. I suggested we leave the party and go somewhere I can have something sweet to lick. Everything after that is not for public consumption anymore but I may have found out the reason why he could not hold on to a guy - especially in a community so obsessed with 'taille'. Nevertheless, I still got his number and we're going out soon. Turns out we both love classical music!
