I was able to rehab a lot of injuries and minimize a lot of my chronic pain issues relatively cheap, easy, and with very little side effects. But after getting married I did not want to put my wife at risk with legal ramifications due to their controlled substance status so I quit using them. Now I deal with muscle relaxers and pain pills, but use them very rarely because they do not help very much and I hate feeling doped up.

Its very sad to see the insane misinformation about steroids in the media and in politics.
And Ephedrine!!!!!!!

Find a French professional to do it. Again: seriously. When I lived in Paris, it seemed like there was a "Salon de Beaute" on every corner--and waxing was an art, because French women never shaved, only waxed. When I returned home, I had a difficult time finding someone who knew how to wax properly. You might have to go to a more upscale place to find a Frenchie--but it will be worth it.

The youth fetish in gay culture is hitting him hard--and while he's not bitter, he's sad. And it makes me sad to see him like that.
Hmm. I think a lot of it is attitude, though. You might not be able to relate to this, but now that I'm older (nearly 40), I love that I don't need to compete with younger guys anymore, and I feel like I can appreciate younger guys now more than I did when I was younger. I can also get into objectifying them, and a lot of guys don't mind being objectified at all.

I know there's differences between male/female and male/male relationships, of course. I'm just pointing out that it's not all doom and gloom. I don't feel gloomy about it at all, in fact.

It's sad about your friend, but just know that not all of us who are 40 and single feel the same way. I know gay men much older than me who are very happy being single.

I think breast implants now a days are way too OVERRATED. I think if you going to get it done it's fine it's your body but when you start getting out of control with them like 54DDDD then it's RIDICULOUS to even look at. Imagine carrying all that extra weight on your back and shoulders. WHOA!!!!!!!!!!

I would think about getting them but afraid of the side effects and risks of having them in my body. So not for me but if you feel you need them and aren't afraid of any risks afterwards then BY ALL MEANS GO FOR IT

Just kidding, of course.

I know lots of folks--straight and gay--are fine with being single. But he's the "marrying kind." He's done the single thing--online and off--and had tons of fun. He's attractive and has no problem finding guys. But he really wants love. I do agree with you about the attitude part, though. He's needy, extremely high-maintenance and a total control freak--something of a narcissist, if the truth be told--a "the world revolves around me" type. But he has a good heart. I do really fear that he will never find anybody, because--honestly--I don't think anyone could stand living with him long-term.

ANYway, glad to hear you're happy be single. Single is SO not tragic.

I could care less about the size of a woman's breasts. Its her heart that matters. No pair of breasts ever brought true happiness. Women should leave the plastic behind and find a man who loves them for who they are.
