Awesome stomach Mute! What kills me is no matter what I do, how hard I work, I know I'll never have that 6-pack!

Pero, non lo voglio fare. I would like to have him in my life, hopefully as a good friend one day--you know the type... the type of friend that feels like family. He'd fit the bill. And in the short time we've known each other, he's said the same of me. A friend like him I don't want to pass up. So, se devo soffrire un po', va bene, lo farò. Va bene? Mi capisci quello che dico? :)

Bob, why do you spend so much time interpreting my life in depth? ;) I refer to "them" because it's been so long since I've found someone that has sparked any interest at all, that has actually been attainable. John, well, started out as "attainable". He was completely possible. We hit it off, but when you would naturally segue from friend to "more than friends", he felt we were awesome as friends, but not awesome as "more". He feels we're similar in many respects and looking for the same thing, which, to a degree is true... and I can see that as a problem as he is different enough from me for me to be attracted to him (as I'm looking for someone who is not my identical twin, but someone who compliments me by having many, and pardon the word, opposite characteristics), but I'm not different enough from him to compliment him in the ways he likes. So, we went the friends route. Unfortunately, I did something that I shouldn't have done, which is sleep with him. He looked at it as just casual fun between two buddies, and I tried to, but I can't just do that... I tend to have a lot of emotion involved when I'm sleeping with someone. Well, that emotion got displaced and I felt closer to him, but not in a "friends-only" way. As for the drama, yeah, well, with him, there is. Not directly to him, but rather about him. I am calm and cool around him, but in the background, I'm wildly crazy about him. It's sorta fading, so that's a good thing. The drama is going out with the feelings. Italians are emotional, you know this. However, don't picture me as this "drama queen" that has melodrama 24/7. John's only a very small portion of my life... there are a million other things in life that keep me well filled. I'd think it'd be a pretty empty life for me if all I had to dwell on was a sole friend. This is, however, a thread I started to talk about situations like this.

I don't really live in an exciting place.

Yeah, what is up with that?! I don't know how many times I find a straight guy I'm interested in, but to find a gay man? Whoah... there just isn't a decent one out there (well, a few, I just have no access to them).

Okay, I see potential. I'm really anxious to see the vehicles at the New York Auto show... there are so many things I want to see... and this may be the first time I would actually see a Vue that is attractive.

Of course ;) I wish there were a lot of people who turned out to be, well, heterosexually-challenged LOL

They must be selling well in the northeast as well... I NEVER see them in dealer lots--I'll see a million LaCrosses though.

xB

Well, I can take fact that I'm starting to actually get over John... it's been months, but I feel that distancing myself a bit and getting out there is helping, and I'm able to talk to him for brief periods of time, keep it friendly, and not get that horrible feeling. Then again, maybe I'm just having a good day :rolleyes:

Again... don't be so sure. Have a straight friend... people think he's gay. John, he's full-on gay... manliest man you'll ever meet.

Faux luxury cars with faux wood

BV... don't exclude someone because you're not getting a "vibe". John has to be one of the most masculine men I've ever met in my life, and guess what? Yup. I've met some straight guys that are more effeminate than I am, so you can't always go on gut feelings or appearances. But, once you finely tune your "radar", you'll learn to use it to your advantage and weed out the breeders :lol: I wish you luck with your situation. Mine is just getting more and more confusing...

SPEAK Are you suggesting something? DOHC supercharged next gen CTS-V? I'm going way out on a limb here.

I don't want to tell you what that house would go for on Long Island.

I thought there wasn't going to be another Ion?

Wow, I was thinking the EXACT same thing. I am not too pleased with the layout of everything, and I'm surprised there are, only a whopping 5 photos of the interior.

Thank God... the car deserves kudos

Let's hope so.I'm still impressed how well the Rendezvous did... I swore up and down that it was not Buick, it was going to flop when it came out.

You know what would be cool? And it would never happen, but it'd be cool if Toyota developed a car and then put like a Chevy logo on it and we saw what the press would say about it. Or vice versa... GM developed a car and put a Toyota logo on it. Wonder if the opinion would truly be corrupted?

I'm very angry because the Enclave looks so freaking elegant in design, rich in appearance.

Forgot: Road Trip! A Beautiful Mind

Looks the same, then again, those are prob 2006 photos and we won't see anything until later in the year.

Happy Birthday!!!!!
