Sorry, Ray, but the way you phrase your sentiments really alienates me, probably because the gay people I know *don't* lie. To use the word "gay" as a collective adjective to characterize your own bad experiences just isn't fair to the rest of us. And the key here is that this isn't a gay issue at all. You're going to find the same duplicity in any singles bar. > I suppose I should have known; he was very into drugs and the bar scene, > which I am not.

I mean, if you're looking for honesty, committment and mature friendship, you're not going to find it on the dance floor of Buddies. Or, at least, you shouldn't be disappointed if you don't. -- /Steve Dyer {decvax,linus,ima,ihnp4}!bbncca!sdyer sdyer@bbnccv.ARPA
