Something I don't get. Some guys here write about a guy they are dating and they say things like "we became boyfriends last night" or "we made it official that we are seeing each other." What is that about? Do guys decide they are boyfriends? That's a new one for me. I figure if I go out with a guy more than a few times then we are dating.
 
As far as I'm concerned, you aren't boyfriends until it has clearly been asked one party to the other and the other accepts. That's why alot of people get their feelings hurt because they assume just because they've hung out a couple times that now they're dating.
 
They both officially decide to be committed to each other, and to not date other people.

That's how I see (and do) it.


What's really frustrating is when you ask someone to hangout and they go all romantic-frantic thinking it's a date.
 
I've never had the "Talk" that some of you are suggesting. But I've also not had the problem of thinking I am hanging out with someone and they think its a date. But this is good for me to know because I thought it was just some bullshit some kid who never dated anyone made up.

Well, here I go. None of my friends believe me when I say this, so I do not know why I would expect posters on JUB to believe me.

I was having drinks with my landlord in a gay bar. Larry walked in the door, and had a beer. We were cruising. My landlord went to the bathroom, and Larry came up and asked me for a late date. He barely introduced himself. We danced, and we fucked, and I asked him out again.

I had known when I first met him that I could spend my life with him. Our needs meshed, we are both people who prefer to be left alone, but want to roll over at night and have someone there we can trust. We have almost nothing in common, and have separate lives and friends outside our home. We are going on five years.

What we do have in common is this. We like working on our house. We think cruising is a waste of time, and so are bars. We have sex 3-4 times a week and when we are done we are out of bed and on to other things. The relationship is open, but neither of us has gone out, though we have fallen into a few situations that were fun one time.

Bottom line; the hell with the boyfriend stuff. If you are looking for a life partner be sure to say so, (you might want to wait until after sex, you might as well get something for your time if your efforts fail). This is not rocket science learn what your NEEDS are on a daily basis, and look for someone who is a match. The first two years we had boy's night out every Friday. We finally tired of that. Push for the long pull. I think we all know that after age 35 the party is pretty much over, grab for all the gusto you can get while making a few plans for the future. Only a self centered idiot ends up alone after age 35.
 
there are varying levels of commitment. dating someone does not mean they are your boyfriend.
 
It means they updated their relationship status on Facebook.
 
I think it's good to get it out there...

I know when the b/f and I first started going out, it was mostly a friendship sort of thing. We'd get together, watch TV and things of the sort, and then go our separate ways without a kiss or what have you between us.

So, after getting together for over a week or so, of course it eventually reached the point where I was asked if I was his boyfriend; to which I replied that I would be if he wanted me to be. And things have been great since.

I think it helps, given that sometimes it's hard to tell whether or not you're just good friends or something more.
 
Last night on House Hunters there were two male Scots, both 24 and still lived with their parents, looking to buy together. They were just best mates, but if you didn't know better you would have thought they were a couple. They were thick as thieves. The best part was when one showed up at the other's house right at dinner time. The father says, "Don't you have food at your house?" He answers, "No, but there's always food here."

It did come to my head whether one of them might have an interest in the other, but to me there is a difference between them and two gay guys hanging out. One, the two gay ones would know the other is gay. Two, those Scots were looking to go hang out at pubs and meet other people but the last thing two guys who like each other want to do is go hang out in a bar. Three, if the guy you're with is cruising other guys I think you know you're not a couple.
 
well you have to make it official before you can update your relationship status on facebook. You don't want to embarrass yourself if the other person denies the request.

My boyfriend and I go out to bars and we are still committed and a couple. Please don't speak for all gay men in a relationship.
