Gay and Single...Forever?

Gay and Single...Forever is the title of the book that I'm reading at the moment...

Very interesting read...

I ordered the book months ago on Kalahari, but never bothered to read it properly, and now that I'm back to using the trains every morning, I decided it to read again... Only this time a lot better...

First of all, the book is very easily relatible, but at the same time not relatible at all...

The book is about the author's search of couplehood or the real meaning behind it... Steven Bereznai is the author... and he's a bladdy good one at that...


Steven Bereznai - a very goodlooking man in his early thirties and he is still single... what hope is there for the rest of us... sigh sigh sigh

He dives into his past sexcapades, failed romances and his variety of "fuck buddies and tricks..." In all honesty I found a huge sense of relief while reading the book... It almost feels like Bereznai is my gay-fairy-godfather... Everytime I read the book, I begin to understand a little bit more about what it's like to be in a relationship (a gay one...) and when it's like to not be in a relationship...

There many parts in the book, to which I have zero understanding off, e.g. his usage of drugs - which I detest - his very active sex life (which is exponentially more active than that of mine...) and his great array of queer friends (compared to my three bromo's)...

But over all the book is great and just finished with it...(again but with a lot more detail) I recomend it to anybody, gay or straight... It deals with a lot of other stuff, like the hierachy of love i.e. if you are single, you're at the bottom of the food chain... It dives into what really makes people tick - on the love front anyway... and it gives the gay Bridget Jones singletons like yours truely, a shit load of perspective...

God bless Steven Bereznai...

Here are just two of the MANY quotes that stood out to me:

1) "In this world a lot of emphasis is put on being "good enough" that someone might actually want to date you. In fact there's so much pressure there are at times when it's hard to remember that singlehood is not failurehood."

2) "It has been said that a gay person does not have a true friend until he comes out, for only then does he let his true self be seen."

Brilliant stuff...

I hope to meet him one day...
