I think I'm in love with my best friend!

It's quite possible to be emotionally attached to someone without being physically attracted to them (the opposite is, of course, far more common). I've been told by a homosexual man that he'd fallen in love with women several times (despite not feeling one iota of sexual attraction towards them), and it's a thing that seems to be able to cross all boundaries of gender and orientation.

If Thames feels the same way about you as you do about him, then I wouldn't worry about the whole question of 'orientation' just yet. It's quite possible for both of you to be heterosexual, even though you're in love with each other.
 
To give the issue a mores serious answer than it deserves, sometimes people fall for each other. That was the implication of the charater of Ianto in 'Torchwood: Children of Earth', that it was the person he fell for, who also happened to be of the same gender. And I';ve seen it go the other way IRL, where an Australian woan who'd been a lesbian all her life married a guy who in her forties - he was a friend, and one day she realised she could spend her life with this person and give him everything.

Make of that what you will.
 
Thank you for the kind words, CaptainStoned and Rock It Man (are you a William Shatner fan?)

I haven't seen Torchwood season three yet Australia. Thanks for the spoiler. :mad:

ONLY JOKING, I hate that show!

Cakes4848, are you a man or a woman?

The weekend has been weird. I've wanted to see Thames, but at the same time I've been scared of what would happen if I did. I keep blushing when I think about him, so imagine what I'd look like if I saw him. He'd probably think I had some horrible skin condition and advice going to the doctor! So I've stayed away. Yet that's made me feel even worse, as part of me, some deep primal part, wants to see him.

I tried thinking about other things. I thought about my ex (not Alicia, the "older woman"), who I haven't talked to since before I left on my trip with Thames. I don't think I ever loved her, as I didn't think about her much AT ALL during my time away. She was hot though, so I did masturbate to some of my special memories of her.

I do miss her children, Chuck and Lisa, as well. It must be hard for them, not having me in their life anymore. I might go and see them next week.

I tried not to think aobut Alicia. She is like the trickster God Loki but in female form (as he is currently in Marvel continuity, in fact!) I'm too mature now to be sucked into her web of games.

I started writing an email to the girl I met on my trip, but I couldn't think of anything to say and spent 95% of it talking about Spider-Man. I deleted it before I sent it.
 
MB, your sig becomes more true every day...

For the record, Cakes is a girl. She PMs me. I've seen pics.

You're gonna have to face up to Thames eventually.

You were tight not to email that girl with stuff about SpiderMan. They only get the kissing stuff. :devil:

As for the rest of your extended family... I'd tell you to leave it alone... but you don't exactly take advice... so I won't bother.

Hot man-on-man action!

Oh, that trickster...always thinking you're diseased. I'm sure this relationship will be nothing but happiness for everyone.

So I've stayed away. Yet that's made me feel even worse, as part of me,
Your balls?

some deep primal part,
Your balls?

wants to see him.
Yup. Your balls.

Your trip on Thames. "In" would also be an acceptable preposition.

I don't think I ever loved her, as I didn't think about her much AT ALL during my time away.
If only we all told you that repeatedly last season.

She was hot though, so I did masturbate to some of my special memories of her.
I, for one, am glad to know what you masturbate to. Thank you for leaving this unimportant detail in the story.

I do miss her children, Chuck and Lisa, as well.
Since this is immeadatly following your "I jerk it to their mom", this statement is a little beyond creepy.

It must be hard for them, not having me in their life anymore.
Yes. If only they could still have the man that up and left to go on a cross-country man humping session with his retardedly named friend. How could they be so unlucky?!?!

I might go and see them next week.
You are aware that you will also see their mother, and quite possibly (and predictably) their father, right? If I were their mother, I'd wipe the blow off my nose and hide them from you.

I tried not to think aobut Alicia. She is like the trickster God Loki but in female form (as he is currently in Marvel continuity, in fact!) I'm too mature now to be sucked into her web of games.
As evidenced by your reference to comic books. Well done.

I started writing an email to the girl I met on my trip, but I couldn't think of anything to say and spent 95% of it talking about Spider-Man. I deleted it before I sent it.
This is a mature decision. I know that when I'm talking to a girl and go off onto a rant of how Beast changed appearance for some yada yada yada or some bullshit (because I"m apparently 12 years old) I always question whether or not the girl who I'm masturbating to needs to hear all this...as she's probably already aware of why Beast looks the way he does. Again, well done.

Vegas odds of Madbaggins going to see "the kids" only to be punched in the face by the husband: 1:1

Yay! Return of the Squiggy play-by-play commentaries! I wonder how many posts it will take this season before MB stops receiving serious answers again...
 
It's hard isn't it? Some people just get under your skin, even though it's not ideal or you know they're probably not the one for you it can be hard telling your heart that. Sadly I have strong feelings for someone who doesn't feel the same way. If you get a chance of happiness go and grab it! And if you have a lovely honey go them a big squeeze!
 
Damn, Madbaggins is back but unfortunately (for me) - he's going with a Brokeback Mountain themed seasn; and I don't swing that way. :(

(I'll still take a look to see where this is gonna go, but if it DOES go that way, I'm done with this season early). ;)
 
MadBaggins is Back! Just what Misc needed. :cool:

I'm a bit disappointed with the season premiere. I think it jumped too far ahead in time. I would like to see some flashbacks to events that happened between season 3 and 4. That is territory that is ripe for the picking.

Saving it for a mid-season bottle ep, I bet.

So I guess that we are back from extended hiatus? I thought the show was cancelled.

The fans campaigned & sent in enough photos of their hot cousins, and the suits relented.
 
Hi Squiggy. What do you think about Beast's changed appearance? I like that he's more catlike now. I remember there was a joke when he was being mind controlled and they gave him a big ball of wool to play with. ROTFLMAO!

Grab it? Squeeze? Oh, very funny. I know Cakes suggsted mutual masturbation but I am NOT going to just go up to Thames and start jerking him. :rolleyes:

well of course it might be medical.
if it is in a wolf pattern lupus.. panda sarcoidosis.

i mean it is hard to keep on blushing that long.
 
So, Season 1 had a Dawson's Creek/One Tree Hill vibe

Season 2 had Orange County vibe.

Season 3 had a Desperate Housewives vibe.

I can't guess with Season 4. Too early. I'm sure it'll be odd. As they say in Yorkshire, I believe, "There's nowt as queer as folk".

Technically, mutual masturbation would have you go up to Thames and start jerking yourself. I'd suggest doing that because it is less of a criminal act than what you were suggesting.

Well, I sincerely hope for your sake that you didn't swing for previous seasons.
