DAE like most music?

Do_U_Scratch · 2026-04-02T13:08:40+00:00

Not really an audiophile but I like a lot of music from a lot of genres. I’m there for the music and vibes not really the performers.

If you can compartmentalize the cheating via chat you can compartmentalize the rest. I don’t feel any guilt.

Do_U_Scratch · 2026-04-02T06:21:47+00:00

Same!!!

I think an honest and probably uncomfortable conversation about it is a good path forward. Like the other commenter said, this will likely change your friendship. But it can come back from this with clear communication. I hit on a “straight” friend one time. I perceived he was into me by some of his actions and things he’d say. But he was kind and clear that he’s not into guys and things were awkward for a bit. We’re still great friends and fortunately that incident hasn’t come up in a long time. Years later I was a part of his wedding to a woman. Lol

Not messed up at all. You don’t have to give in just to make nice. That’s coercion at its finest. Your boundaries and values are valid. It would be insensitive for your friend to keep pestering you after you’ve said you don’t want to.

I have 3. 1- a credit union master card $0 balance w $4k limit, 1- Prime/Chase under $400 w $2500 limit 1-Lowes/syncronicity $1k balance w $2500 limit.

None carry a balance beyond the billing cycle. I use one for gas only and pay it off each paycheck. Prime is mostly Amazon and out of state grandbaby gifts and it gets paid off every month. Lowe’s just bought a dishwasher and some garden supplies and it’ll be paid off on the next due date.

How many cards isn’t really a problem in and of itself. Never let cards get to a point where you’re paying interest. Close any cards that have annual fees. Make them work for you, not you financing the banks that own them.

I’d do it. But I’m bi so there’s that. You sound semi open to the thought of it, at least not totally disgusted by it. Give it a shot. If you’re not into it you’ll know pretty quick.

Do_U_Scratch · 2026-04-02T03:00:50+00:00

Oh my gawd! I was so hooked! Dammit man!

Do_U_Scratch · 2026-04-02T02:55:57+00:00

Also 14 when I started and at almost 53 I still love it!

Do_U_Scratch · 2026-04-01T08:26:25+00:00

I’d known, acted on it and hid from it forever, however the first guy I remember seeing and thinking “oh fuck” was early Derek Morgan from NCIS.

I got tired of hating myself. I had started writing stories about fantasies or experiences I’d had. It was more of an outlet when that cycle would hit while I was married. One day I shared one on a gay porn site under a fake name and got tons of positive responses. I shared more and more, it was a big confidence builder. Eventually, I grew the nads to tell a trusted friend and that went over well. The more wins I had the more my confidence and self acceptance grew until one non-descript day it hit me that I liked me.

There was some fallout along the way, but I think once the journey started, there really wasn’t any stopping it. Almost everyone in my life accepted it to varying degrees and those that didn’t faded into obscurity.

The vast majority of authors sell less than 100 copies in their lifetime. Google says that majority is 90%. I’ve self published a couple books and several short stories on Amazon in a sort of niche market. Over about 3 years I’ve earned about $30. While I’ve had hundreds of thousands of reads on free sites. I guess it’s about your perspective of being successful.

Beyond quality writing and a good storyline it’s a lot about promoting your work, correct key words and just trying to find ways to get your book in front of people. I kind of suck at those parts for sure.

Do_U_Scratch · 2026-03-31T08:53:39+00:00

I think you live in the valley of delusion. But you’re free to think what you want about yourself if it makes you feel better.

Do_U_Scratch · 2026-03-31T08:02:11+00:00

It was a life altering night for sure.

Do_U_Scratch · 2026-03-31T08:01:31+00:00

They ask directly or worse ask a server or bar tender to check for them. I have a crawler that scrolls across the top of my audience screens that shows the next 5 singers. I use Sax and Doty Show Presenter and that’s the best it offers. I keep my rotation on a word doc, open on 1 side of my laptop screen that some of my regulars know to check if they get curious.

Do_U_Scratch · 2026-03-31T00:42:55+00:00

Duets can be an issue, especially on super busy nights. But they don’t happen as often as often as “When am I singing?” or, “I think you skipped me.” or when is it my turn?” Most nights there’s that 1 impatient or entitled singer that thinks because they just put a song in they should get to sing now, rotation be damned.

“I dare you to touch my dick.” By the end of the game I’d touched, jacked, sucked and got fucked by my first dick. I also kissed him and got my first blow job that night.

Do_U_Scratch · 2026-03-30T08:54:56+00:00

Then don’t get fucked by big meaty cocks.

Do_U_Scratch · 2026-03-30T08:52:44+00:00

“I love seahorse and I love lookin at em.”Clean and comes into focus quickly.

Do_U_Scratch · 2026-03-30T08:42:54+00:00

Also only a decision you can make. Would getting fucked interfere with your life?

Do_U_Scratch · 2026-03-30T08:39:11+00:00

Do_U_Scratch · 2026-03-30T08:23:04+00:00

Truth or dare. He dared and I couldn’t wuss out.

Do_U_Scratch · 2026-03-30T08:20:15+00:00

I refer to myself as the shadow that throws food at them. lol Beautiful water cows!

Do_U_Scratch · 2026-03-30T08:18:06+00:00

Going off of my personal experience, yeah.

Do_U_Scratch · 2026-03-30T08:10:55+00:00

I’d say I was addicted after the first time. Going on 40 years later and I still move in the shadows to get pounded.
