Working With Will

[Blueboy369]

I love your update and always look forward to them. James, you have played your cards right and I applaud you for taking things slow. This reminds me of the movie "Shelter". If you haven't seen it, you need to. Will probably never had these feelings before and you have awakened something in him that wants to see where things go. I'll say this much, Straight guys don't usually discuss feelings and especially NEVER kiss. Enjoy this very special friendship. Can't wait 4 the next update.

As much as I'd like to put a face to a name with Will, I don't think it should happen and I'm sure James is avoiding it out of respect for Will's privacy.

Anyways, I wish you the best in this situation, James. I hope it works out for you, you deserve it (I've read your other thread) ... so good luck, buddy.

I'm sorry, but posting anyone's photo on a gay forum that might care if the entire world saw them, is asking for drama with a capital D.

Agreed. Best left to the imagination was Will looks like.

I never said post a picture, I said "brief description". Just hair/eye color and shade of skin (pale, tan, medium, dark....). I agree that it'd be wrong and selfish to ask him to post a picture. There's also no pressure for the description, I'd understand if it's giving too much info, I was just curious.

Just a suggestion....maybe James could take a picture of the TWO of you on your camera phone (at work, at home, some fun/random occasion). Post the pic in the gallery with your other pictures. This will give the less imaginative a peek and give those of us with a VIVID imagination a confirmation of what he looks like (trust me, he's hot!).

This is better than a soap, it's real life. I check this damn thread for updates a couple times a day. So James, all updates - even lame ones are consumed quickly and then the anticipation of the next one is queued up! Good thing JUB doesn't have an mobile update like Facebook, I would NEVER get anything done!

Thanks for the fun!

No, that'd be the same as posting a picture since it'd be so obvious who he is.

I've been holding back, first out of envy, then out of disbelief. This whole series is straight out of every gay guy's fantasy.

However, I reminded myself that the world that gorgeous guys inhabit is quite different from the one the rest of us live in. Stuff like this just doesn't happen to us regular guys. And you definitely have the look that appeals to straight guys. Handsome with muscle, but nothing feminine about you.

So all I can say is, enjoy the straight cock while it lasts. He'll go back to pussy some day. I just hope he takes you along as a friend when that happens. Good luck to the both of you.

After reading this, it hit me like a ton of bricks. I don't know why I even went there in my mind. I could never expect him to just accept all of this and be ready to be in a relationship with me. That's insane. Not to mention, I don't want to rush this. I'm having fun, he's (hopefully) having fun, so why ruin that?

i'm glad you addressed this because your initial statement gave me pause. i can see what you mean because there is this veneer that a strong infatuation will produce. your feelings for that person are very close to the surface and before you know it you're thinking all sorts of scenarios. it doesn't mean that those scenarios couldn't happen but usually the odds are against it. you're wise not to rush into anything at this point as i really think he is still trying to figure out his own feelings for you. go with the flow, enjoy the process and continue to nudge him along the way.

I don't remember if I described Will or not. He has short, dark brown hair, almost black. Green eyes (or would that be considered hazel?) and very dark eye lashes (it almost looks like he has mascara on, but he doesn't)--I love eyes, I always notice them right off. He has a runner's build but pretty damn decent biceps. He has very tan skin (his grandmother is full-blood Native American). He's a few inches shorter than me (I'm 6'). His teeth are very white, but aren't straight. He just has two or three that are slightly crooked. I know that because he told me once that he feels self-conscious about his teeth, which I thought was ridiculous and actually thought they give him character. And he has small, thin very light pink lips. Is that detail enough? haha. I feel like a psycho stalker now for knowing that much about him.

Haha, yeah that's enough detail. More than I thought. Nothing stalkerish about it though since it's mainly describing looks and since you're a close friends and close friends know a whole lot about each other. He sounds really hot. I love green eyes.

James, I was out from internet so I didn't read your wonderful update until now, sorry.
I have to admit that I nearly cry while reading the "making out" part. yeah I may be such a dramma queen but I'm so happy for you. When a man kisses you that 99% means he likes you. You put a seed in my fantasy for a great boyfriend. ya know.
WOW

 

[gayguy_1]

What a story this is something you see in the movies. I started reading your story 3 days ago and just caught up! Will sounds wonderful, I can only dream of these things happening to me. Thanks for sharing your story with us, its like reading a book!
I hope all is well, you two sound perfect for each other!

 

[Kyanimal]

I'm glad you dropped by, Chaz. I missed your smilies and one of a kind personality that makes me smile.

Aw, James! You just made me feel all "bubbly" inside!!

Keep smilin'!!
Chaz

 

[Kyanimal]

I'm sorry, Molten, but I don't think James is "pursuing" Will just to "turn" a Str8 Guy! That is not his main intention/purpose. I've got to give James much more credit than that! This entire thing is not just a "conquest"!

James finds Will an attractive, interesting Guy! And, I think he's been incredibly sensitive to Will's feelings, and general well being! I've gotten the impression that the Friendship that's evolving if much more important than any other considerations!

Of course there is the "sexual" side to this! I mean, after all, James is a Gay Guy! And when he finds another Guy attractive ... Yes! ... his thoughts are going to go "there"!

As for Will ... is he "really" Str8? He's definitely "Curious"! And, James has been, very carefully, helping Will to discover New things!

Is he trying to "turn" him? I don't think so! But ... James is, quite considerately, helping Will explore some "further dimensions" of his own personality. And, THAT, I believe, is a phenomenal Gift!

Keep smilin'!!

Try again. Maybe your fantasy.

OK, maybe not your fantasy, but apparently the fantasy of the rest of the gay world, judging by the number of "gay-for-pay" websites out there.

But I also get your point about not chasing it. I wouldn't bother, either. Pure fantasy for me. However, I am willing to believe that gorgeous guys like superboy83 can occasionally break that barrier. Good for him.

 

[mascbiguy]

moletn, you have no clue what Will's situation is. you dont know if this could go far, become a real relationship, or if it's just a friendship where will gets to explore his feelings for another man.

 

[hotatlboi]

Sorry, I mixed up the OP's name with his friend.

I should have said James, not will when I said:

"As I said in this thread previously as long as [strike]Will[/strike] James keeps remembering this isn't going to go real far relationship wise, enjoy the sex and bonding but keep looking for Mr. Right. This guy now, is a pleasurable diversion and I hope [strike]Will[/strike] James keeps his heart from going beyond that."

I think that's a bit presumptuous. From the sounds of it, this guy is just starting to realize he may be gay. If he comes to that realization while he's still into James, how do you know he wouldn't be interested in a relationship?

 

[JarodA]

I agree with everyone else MoltenRock. It's obvious that Will is not straight, otherwise he wouldn't be giving James the time of day. As for the closet-case thing, what's so bad about James being with a closet-case? It could be good for Will in the long run if James helps him to accept his sexuality whatever that may be.

 

[hotatlboi]

Look, it may be young gay people's fantasy that they can fall in love with their str8 buddies and convert them, but there are far, far, far more threads about "I'm in love with my str8 best friend what can I do" that end in disaster that the odds are ridiculously stacked against anyone attempting this.

Yes there are, and very few of them progress as far as their straight best friend kissing them and liking it. This isn't a one way street or an unhealthy impossible infatuation imo. If there was no chance of anything, then yes I would agree with you. But from everything that has been said it seems that this guy, despite being very new to these feelings he has, is open to pursuing something. What that something is remains to be seen of course.

I've enjoyed this thread, superboy83. You seem to have a good sense of yourself with a good read on your situation. Given what you've written, I think your attitude of cautious optimism is warranted.

This guy is not relationship material currently. Could he be someday? Who knows.

I understand the sort of cautionary tale you're trying to tell here, MoltenRock, but I think in this instance it may be misapplied. You're right; no one knows if Will, in the future, will be relationship material, which means that he very well might turn out to be great relationship material. To me, James seems level-headed and clear sighted, so there is no need to dampen what seems like a hell of a good time with premature cynicism.

One more thing: James (may I call you that?), your story is very well written -- do you have any professional experience in writing? If not, I think you could.
