Don’t beat yourself up, I think we’ve all done the same thing at least once. At least you realised the error of your ways and will in future, hopefully will be aware and beware. Have a good one*smiley*.

over-exposure… we all have had the fakers … more important is to ask why we were so desperate to have it work ??? maybe it is our inner loneliness … and that should be addressed and not the sadness of the people who really trusted someone who would take it to the penultimate …for those people and their families my true symapathies

Wow! I can really see myself in this article. Doesn’t happen that often. Thanks!

I relate completely, and I think it’s part of the gay condition – we feel we have to prove ourselves because of the social criticism of our lifestyle (there’s another article about that here, but I haven’t read it yet) and our consequent low self-image. It;s called homo-negativity; the unusual trait that even gay people have some internatlised homophobia – “I can’t stand screaming queens”, “I’m straight-acting”. So we NEED affirmation from others. but ultimately end up with soul-destroying nights in grungy clubs looking for love. But I speak for myself of course – some others are undoubtedly better adjusted. I’m addressing the issue by finally admitting my resultant alcoholism.

Breathe .. live and enjoy the journey … so what if we mess up every now and then? It is seriously complicated being human, not achieving perfection all of the time is really not that serious.

Bruce, You forgot to add devastatingly handsome to your list of flaws. Every time I see you out in a club you’re in a hurry to get…somewhere. I figure it’s cos you’re famous through your acting and am intimidated to say hi. I used to be a slave to the voice inside my head a while back. I got some professional help. I know that sounds patronising but this idea that we can make it in isolation is so …. er 1900’s.

Oddly enough,that’s why I’m here on the Meetmarket, to find that one amazing (business school graduate!) that will tell me how amazing I am.

Very well written and witty piece. Thanks for sharing. hate to say this but I personally am not even THINKING of finding any dates on a social networking sites. I am in fact not dating anymore period. As a gay man I feel my life is threatened by simply stepping out the front door for being gay… guess I will send that application to the Nunnery after all…. Looks like a very lonely life ahead for me….wonder where is the human rights in all of this….! God only knows!

So very well written, I so wish I could see myself through the eyes of those who love me… I must be doing something right cause there are many…as Mr Little I am quite sure do you…we live in complex times with the strangest of dynamix …. you have the ability to create your own reality. When I see someone that seemingly has it all feel so similar to me it gives me hope…. thank you for that….
