Why I believe that's Murray Bartlett - the Australian actor! And he is gay, living with his partner in Massachusetts. In an interview, he said, "I didn't feel like I really had an alternative. I just never felt I could ever be anything but myself."
Right you are...some people flirt with everyone. That said, dating is a crap shoot. Finding a good match is not easy. That said, the more people you meet, the higher the possibility of finding a match. Think of it as a game and go in to it with low expectations.
Just because he's straight doesn't mean he can't become an interesting friend . . . there are other things in live other than hot, sweaty passionate sex!!
Deeeliissssh. It’s never too late to date, there are loads of fish in the sea and you will meet many on the way to the “one”. Never give up, you have so much to offer, chin up and gaze into that pic , sigh, noreen
I have never been able to differentiate between friendliness and flirting. Sadly I think I have missed a few opportunities.....or so friends have told me when recounting particular 'friendly' conversations.....hey ho !
What an interesting comment Shristy and so thoughtful too. Our mutual friend Mr Gray would surely love to go to college in New Delhi, pursuing a PGDM course in Operations Management.
He may not even have realised he was flirting John. As a straight chap I wouldn't know if a gay man was flirting with me - unless expressly propositioned ( which happened at the clinic I worked at, by a client - and a member staff. I'm not sure who was more embarrassed). Sadly, I wouldn't have a clue if a woman was flirting with me either. Perhaps it's a general straight man thing. Your 'suitor' probably thought he was having a friendly chat.
I guess you are right, but there was something about his manner that made me notice ….perhaps I’m not used to over friendly handsome men being overly friendly
Toronto has a gay clothing optional beach.. one summer my late hubby who had a similar look, and his daughter were out on his boat cruising past and one of his daughters remarked that all the men were looking at her. My husband said “no dear they are looking at me”. He got hit on by both men and women a lot. Oh, he was very straight, just friendly. GG
You need to realise that you are not 30 anymore so your chance of dating in non existent
ReplyDeleteI call bullshit. My mum began a relationship at 60 that they both said were the happiest 10 years of their lives. Tina in west oz

DeleteOuch …..very true my “ friend”

ReplyDeleteGood lord, those eyes could melt the devil's heart if he had one.
Well, I've always thought you were cute, my friend.
ReplyDeleteTee hee

Murray is a real catch , I loved his gay autumnal love story in the The last of us

ReplyDeleteI think you are right , some people just have that enviable ability
DeleteMurray Bartlett is not only an incredible actor, but super HOT.
ReplyDeleteLord you are so right
DeleteWas the source who told you he's straight likely to know for sure?
ReplyDeleteYes debra 🥵
DeleteI am an equal opportunity flirter, as well.
ReplyDeleteRight, Debra she who seeks.....who really knows but him. ;)

ReplyDeleteAnd what a good reply Virginia , well made
Deletemeant to add . . .how are you feeling?
ReplyDeleteTired but ok , thank you for asking
DeleteYou have good taste if he looked like this guy! I think some people maybe do just have a "flirty" manner.
ReplyDeleteHope your throat feels better soon and you can get back to normal routines. Covid seems to be very much on the rise where I am too.
Yes I bit chunkier , but similar
DeleteOh, the one's that got away! Never mind, John. Onwards and upwards. The right man is out there somewhere, you just have to be patient! xx

DeleteYum!

ReplyDeleteI’m not really bothered noreen but he had cute eyes and DID flirt
DeleteNice though.

ReplyDeleteYes, some do, it is their manner. Still, a friend is good . We all need those of all sorts.
Isn’t he glorious
DeleteI have never been able to differentiate between friendliness and flirting.
ReplyDeleteSadly I think I have missed a few opportunities.....or so friends have told me when recounting particular 'friendly' conversations.....hey ho !
Me too, hence the blog entry
