No Apologies Necessary You apologized for being unromantic. And I said nothing. Missing our ride, you hugged me upon my late arrival. You explained how you freaked out when you didn’t see me on the tram. You looked around. You called my name. You thought you lost me. I was an idiot then. I thought I lost my card so I didn’t get on. But your reaction was pretty sweet. It was heartwarming. It was precious. Yet you apologized for being unromantic. Lying side by side, you asked me if I was happy. I nodded. “Very happy?”, you probed. I said yes, looked at you with smile carved on my face, and threw back the question. You said yes. “Very happy?”, I probed. You said no, looked at me with gloom painted on your face, and pointed out my departure. I felt a pain in my chest. You apologized for being unromantic. And now, I am saying something. Listen closely.

Men are hot and gorgeous and beautiful and complex… But also exhausting and flaky. This summer being single has been a summer of heartbreaks and yearning for unrequited feelings. We didn’t have an album or song of the summer because everything is just remnants of the seasons that have come and gone. Fall may seem like death but it’s also change.

Not many guys can handle the full-throttle energy of a Latin love. But if you can, mate… buckle up. It’s a wild, romantic adventure your taste buds will never forget. ❤️🔥

Irreverence Sometimes, I imagine Amsterdam, As a leather-clad Dionysus, Just like how Tom pictured, With greek god physique, Subversive demeanour, And insatiable hedonism. In the dark alleys, Of that street we took Pride, I followed the shadows, Interacting and intertwined. Smoke from a fag, Veiled a bearded face, In carnal exaltation Of someone’s piping. Secrets of the night, Unraveling right in front Of a youthful soul, Whose identity is lost - Or merely yet to be discovered - In the wilderness Of a distant, foreign city. Coming (of age), One that is stunted, Cruising masked subcultures Of dom cap and sneakers. Emotions and socialisation, Clashed on this fleeting moment. Confused yet mesmerised, Questioning but intrigued. Sometimes, When I look back, To that formative period Of discovery and curiosity, I aspire for that irreverence To narrate my truth Of my chosen family to my own.

Lately I have learned the strange posture of the lover: not of one person, but of the earth itself, of every being that breathes. I walk about as though carrying a vessel full, spilling its brightness with every step. My heart rests in love, swollen with it, steady with it, as though it were some untamed light pressing gently against the walls of me. What roots are these within me, seeking soil already waiting? What seeds are these, quiet in their husks, prepared for the rain that will draw them into the air? I am crowded with beginnings, my body a greenhouse of calm abundance, my chest a window opening to its own breath.

Dudes hit the gym after a breakup thinking their body is the issue. Homie you have the emotional intelligence and maturity of a door knob. Go to therapy.

I fr need more irrelevant gay stuff in my life like malin and goetz candles or a cool chair with architectural features that make it mildly uncomfortable

Together was emotional and really raised questions about how I feel relationships and the long term relationship I’ve been in. Weapons is a film that you need to see completely blind. Just amazing and fun.

“I realised I’ve never actually been on a date with myself.” Not the “treat yourself” kind. I mean sitting with myself no phone, no audience, no one’s eyes telling me who to be. Just me… with me. Most of my life, I’ve matched the people around me without even noticing. Their pace. Their mood. Their limits. And after a while, you forget what your own rhythm feels like. So I’m trying something new. I’m taking myself out to notice the way I look back at me, to find the version of me that doesn’t need anyone’s permission to exist. And maybe if I can believe in that person… I’ll finally stop living at their level, and start living at mine. -Juanda

An Ode to Oomes I wanted to write an ode for you. I thought it goes well with your surname. Ode. Oomes. An ode to Oomes. It has been in my head for so long, awaiting to be written on a sheet of paper. Passionately scribbled for you to read. I have clearly conceived the words I would use. The picture I would paint. All the elements I would weave to chisel out the beauty I witnessed. What would it contain? Your Plato-like intelligence. I thought you were a descendant of ancient philosophers. Your Narcissus-like face. I thought you were drawn from mythological pieces. Your Adonis-like figure. I thought you were sculpted after iconic deities. I have never adored someone like this before. It must be the alcohol. It must be the x. Or I must be romanticizing everything about you. A fool in love, they say. A fool who made you infallible. I made you a saint. I made you a god. I made you unattainable. I made you perfect. I have never been so wrong. So I am not writing one. To correct my distorted view of you. This is not an ode.

Maybe a very unpopular opinion, but I really dislike a polo shirt. I find most of them ugly & trashy . Anybody agree on this ?
