The one that got away

[another1]

several months ago, i was riding the train and a very handsome boy sat across from me.
he had a teeshirt on that had something written on it. but as i read it, he smiled, i smiled back. i then said something which i am sure was dumb. he laughed. we talked and at one point he ask if we could talk some more. he ask if i had a cellphone. of course, i do! he said 'good you can call me' and said, 'give me your phone'. i did and he entered a number and took out his own phone when it rang. he said, 'now you have my number, call me'.

i never did!

looking at numbers in my contact list and found his name.

yesterday, a lady friend of mine, said that i should call him and see if he would like to take a long walk on the beach or something else.

i wonder why i probably will not call him. the one who said 'here's my phone number. call me maybe?', i let walk right out my life and the ones i will never know have all my attention.

the one i wouldn't catch! a big fish jumped in my boat and i threw it back, because i was looking for another one.

it not suppose to be that way!

it's good to have the forum and Broke Straight Boys

Speaking of ones that got away - and taking into account the thread on Bobby,
What ever happened to Mitch, Anthony, Kevin 2 and Derek 4. I know that Derek 4 has performed on Boy Gusher but what has happened to the others - are they or have they now departed Broke Straight Boys for greener pasteurs? Hope someone can shed some light.

Damn it, another1! I feel your pain.I worked on a boy once, for two years, so he could turn 18. By the time he had turned 18, he was ready to come and celebrate with me.
During that time, I heard of a friend who had been murdered by an young lover. So, while I wanted Fred to come over, I was always fearful.

4 years passed. One night, I went on a rare adventure, drinking at the bars. That night I spotted this really cute young man hovering over an older gentleman. From the distance, I saw he was a very good looking young man. I watched for awhile and then turned to chat with my party. About half an hour later, I feel someone tapping on my shoulder. I turn to see who it is, and lo and behold, it is Fred. Up close I recognized him easily. I was stunned! How utterly stupid I felt finding out that he had waited for two years for me to invite him over, and that he had truly been interested in pursuing something with me. I went home and cried my self to sleep that night! LOL

Sorry, Another1, for your situation. I do believe that I would have done almost the same thing you did (I wouldn't have let him put his number in my phone....now he has your phone number). But since he hasn't used it, maybe he was sincere.

In this increasingly violent world, I am very leery of anyone I don't know and only a few of those I do. In the case of young men hitting on older men, my guess is that they want only one thing....to get what I got. And as JLipps has already mentioned, at any cost....even your life. I was much more comfortable with picking up young men when I was young and didn't have anything worth stealing. About the only thing I had to worry about then was if the guy had a jealous lover who might catch us.

I know that hearing all of this doesn't make it any easier, but I sure would hate to loose my good friend at the hand of some snot-nosed kid trying to get his next fix. I could be totally wrong about this kid, but it would be a huge risk on your part to find out. JLipp's friend turned out to be legit. Maybe this kid was too.

funny how things turn out. funny in the sense that it's strange the things we turn away, when it is company and companionship we are turndown.
hoping the mister right is on his way.
mister i'm here for you should be enough.
look who's talking. experience is what you gain by mistakes. wisdom is making the best of what we have experienced.

i'll never know! was it a six-sense or no sense that stopped me from ever calling.
in my dreams we are hiking a mountain trail.
in my nightmare we are in our own hell.
but we are together, in any case.

words by themselves don't help at all, but what helps is your sharing your thoughts and concerns and that means alot to me.

i wish all my wishes would come true when just being alive should do.

Just be careful what you wish for, my friend. Sometimes, just being alive is enough.

If someone I had been chatting to on a train ride asked for my number, unless he was areal hottie, then I would be really reluctant to give it him. But train rides are different than meets in local bars where there is a good chance you will meet them again. So I suppose I don't blame you for taking his number, but I do blame you for not siezing the opportunity to call him.

jon, i am proof that smart people and dumb people take bad decisions!
he was handsome with beautiful eyes and a great smile.
when he said his name was chad, he had my attention.
when you ride the same train everyday the chances are high you will be at the same station, riding the same train.
is 30 minutes enough time to feel comfortable with a stranger on a train.
thanks, jon you are like the cord that keeps me from drifting away.

You're not dumb dude, well I suppose you were a bit when you didn't call him up. Well maybe you will catch him again on the train if it's your regular journey. TBH if a handsome guy was smiling at me and touching my thigh for 30 mins, I'd give him my wages let alone my number

Is the chord thing a good thing or bad thing ??

well i might have opened a bank account for him.
there is the park and the beach where i can alway find a guy who wants some of my wages.
this guy could have only wanted my time, company and/or attention.
but as it is his number is still on my contact list.
did i remember to say his name was chad.


'cord'. sometime i am an airhead and float off on a tangent.
i was thanking you for pulling on that string attached to a helium balloon used to keep it from flying off.
it's was meant to be a good thing!

YAYYYYYYY!!!!!!!

 

[another1]

i just watched a movie called, 'is it just me?'.
in the story the younger guy ask his older roommate what he should be about the relationship he was having. the older guy told, 'don't do what you think you should do. do what you know you should do. just don't take too much time, because you don't too much time.'
thanks lovelumps!
time will tell. what do they say, nothing ventured, nothing gained!

 

[joninliverton]

There is a song for everything

I just called to say I loved you.

Is it me - for a moment - The Who Quadraphenia

 

[Ms. Kianna]

Finally! I hope it all works out.

Now Jon can start making bets on the outcome.

My betting days are over Ms.K Straightboycurious94 has been away from here for a few days so maybe he ran away in hiding from me lol. I also played online bingo today and lost 20 pounds, so that's it - all bets are off.
