New Breed

True Story:

This past Thursday night I went on the same date with two men. My gay friend arranged this date with another man, who insisted that he take BOTH of us to dinner? He approached my gay friend in a bar the week before, where I made a 5 second introduction and went about my night. So, I found it very strange that he was insisting I join this date with my friend? We decided to just go with it and see how the night evolved.

I met my friend outside and we walked in to the unknown at The Darby. This man is in his late 30's or early 40's, a well known doctor, apparently married with two young kids, multiple houses, the usual find in New York. For the first hour of dinner he only had eyes for my friend. I assumed he wanted me there to be the "beard" for his sexuality in public. So I munched on my shrimp and watched the live entertainment. Kimberley Locke (American Idol) sang an amazing version of "At Last" while her dinner date, Joey Fatone (NSYNC), looked on.

Then the tables turned and this guy only focused on me? This may be the 7th man in the last 6 months who I would swear is gay, but then says he is straight? I have been spending time with another one, who I didn't even question was gay, until he made advances on me and only talks about his past relationships with women? This became the same story! This doctor admitted that his sexuality is usually questioned. He then cornered me at the next bar and said he put this night together just to spend time with me? I was furiously sipping cocktails and wondering how this man's brain works. He tells me that his wife is the person he knows he will spend the rest of his life with, but she is not the last person he is going to have sex with. His marriage isn't open, it is basically "don't ask, don't tell". At that, I excused myself and found other friends in the bar.

Creeps are all over Manhattan, but are men really now pretending to be gay to pick up straight women??
