Weird E.B

As I'm having my pizza and beef lasagna that I ordered at Pizza hut at the mall, I cant help but have a shallow laugh! I just tried to shook it off and forget about it.

Director, please rewind!

6 hours earlier:

I was chatting online and this Filipino guy sent me a message, had a couple of good conversation, till the routine exchanges of pictures and links. With some casual flirting on the side too. I gotta say, he's a cutie. I invited him to go out. Been wanting to go to the mall because I have to send money to my mom and to buy some personal stuffs. This is hitting two birds with one stone, so why not.

He's jobless and living with his sister's family here in Doha while he seeks job as a nurse. He said he don't have the budget, but I said, its not a problem, I could treat you to a fancy dinner and a movie. Lets call him Kirk

In simple words, I found a friendly date tonight. So after I prepared myself I took a cab and told him I'm on my way. He said, he's also waiting for the bus. As I passed by the lovely scenery of Doha, I've been thinking of where are we gonna eat and what movie to watch. I kinda get excited, and told my friend Cher I'm going out with this guy. Its a routine for me to inform someone close to me that I'll be meeting a new guy, in case something happens, the police might get a lead, right???

So much for paranoia?!LOL

When I finally met him, I noticed another guy with him. He introduced him to me as his friend!

WTF? He brought a friend???!

A chaperone?nyak!

I wanna slap my self and think that this was just a dream! Who else on earth would bring a chaperone on a date at this modern age of gay dating!

What was he, his personal security guard????!

My excitement was gone with the wind, I'm no longer interested. I just wanna go and do what I originally need to do. Both of them are nice, that's a fact, but I'm not ready for this, I'm not good at surprises.

A normal responsible guy would say: Mac, I'll be bringing my friend with me, is that alright with you?

To think that I'll be the one paying for our dinner and movie, didn't he think that it will look so embarrassing on his part bringing his friend?Duh! Its so funny and annoying. I came there to meet him, to get to know him, to have a new friend. But two is way too much for me at that moment. That's why I have to remind my self not to date guys under 25 years old! LOL They're so immature! grrrrrrrrr!

When I was falling in line for the remittance center and they're watching something a few meters I texted kirk: Hey why you didn't tell me you're bringing a friend?I thought its just the two of us.

I saw him picked his cellphone and read it,and take note, together with his friend! They read it together, awww how sweet!LOL!

He replied: Sorry, we saw each other here, and its a shame if I'll snob him, right?

Well, a normal guy would do is this: he would say hi to his friend and if that friend will ask, tell him you'll be meeting someone. Or if your closeted (which is not the case for him) you'll just make an alibi and say goodbye to that friend. And you don't need invite him to your date to think that you're not the one paying! haller!

And a normal friend would also do if your friend told you that he's meeting someone or having a date is to just say good luck and have fun. or if he invites you out of courtesy, you'll just say, no thanks, you go ahead.

I called my friend Cher about my awkward situation. She just laughed at me and said what kind of guy was that! Leave them right away! I texted Kirk again: Hey I think I'm better off alone, I need to buy some things and you surprised me... I'm sorry.

Once again i saw him read my message together with his friend!hahaha what's with this guy?gosh! I never met someone like him. He's weird!

He faced me and waved his goodbye. I sighed for relief! Its such a shame that I planned a good night for us, even thinking of inviting him to go clubbing with me if our plans push through this weekend.

Funny, that I don't have anything interesting to write on my blog recently and good thing he came. LOL!

I just did what i needed to do after they'd go, and I bought a new shirt for our future clubbing and a new perfume, 1 million by Paco Robanne. I bought Issey Miyake's scent 2 weeks ago but my friends didn't like the smell. Too strong I guess. Hope this one is much better.

A Bad News

The recent turns of event affected me that much, I'm concerned about my lifestyle and my rights...I was having so much fun and forgot that I am a foreigner here, a not so straight foreigner...I know I am very discreet but I still feel scared.

Recently, it was all over the hospital, a news about a gay nurse at the ER, missing for about two days. They don't know where he is, just found out the next day that he was arrested by the police.

Why?

Because he's gay.

I was saddened by this, concerned friends approached me and advised me, told me to be careful. "We love you, that's why we're telling you this" they said. I appreciated it."You should avoid local guys, as much as possible, only date Filipino guys, its much safer. Don't ever bring guys to your house OK?!

At this time, I'm shutting all kind of gay guys!LOL

I asked around why did they arrested him, no one knew, some of his friends are not saying anything, they're protecting their friends from further shame I guess.

People said:

1.He is having an affair with a local (arab/qatari)
2.Someone must've tipped the police that he's having gay practice and had him under surveillance for a week.
3.He was at his accommodation, doing his laundry, on plain house clothes, slippers etc., when the police arrested him.
4.That he will be put behind bars and be slashed every Friday.
5.He will be deported with nothing but what he is currently wearing.

All of this are just talks and I don't have valid proof that it is true, but they said, its been done before and those gays being arrested before told these stories.

Its scary, I feel bad about this nurse, I hope he's alright. I thought as long as you do it inside your walls you will be alright, but why do they have to raid some one's house? I read some articles that the police are even doing disguise (CID-cops in disguise) and make entrapment operations.

Sigh.

No more dating for me as of now. Good thing I'm not having sex for about 4 months now!LOL

Kaong at nata de coco na 'to! Nyahaha!

Socially Revived!

The Sheraton Hotel

Last Friday, Feb 26, me and other 3 friends from work decided to go clubbing, been wanting to do that since I came here 7 months ago LOL! So after 10pm work, me and a girl friend, changed into our party clothes and about to hit the road. But we received a call from the other two who's there ahead and told us that QUBE (that's our venue inside the Ramada Hotel) were closed!!!!

Whaaaaaat???????! On a weekend they're closed?

What are we gonna do now? I just bought this clothes for that place! Damn! haha. I wanna scream!

They just told us that we will go to Sheraton Hotel instead, they have a live band too, but smaller dance floor and the DJ are not as better as QUBE, but what the heck! We just wanna have a drink, dance all night and party!

The hotel is awesome. I wonder how it felt like staying on one of their rooms...

Inside the lobby of Sheraton hotel

At the entrance we registered and they gave us a membership ID which cost QR35 (which is about 437 pesos) and the drinks inside cost around 47 to 60 QR (500 to 750 pesos). Upon entry, I'm scanning the place for PLUs but only spotted 2 or 3, well, I must admit my gaydar sucks!LOL

Inside as expected, a mixture of races, the live band are purely Filipinos though, 3 female vocalist. And yeah, the dance floor is kinda small. We had a couple of drinks and when they sang Lady Gaga's just dance, we all knew its our cue to hit the dance floor.

And we danced non stop for an hour!LOL

I noticed a cute gay guy came in and greeted his friends, but also noticed that overprotective bf nearby haha. Oooops, he's taken!hmmmp

As the night heated up and we're burning the dance floor, the band suddenly sang a medley of some classic pinoy songs, and my friends started to pick partners and did the swing....waaaa I'm not good at it! and so we did dance the swing, my partner C, carried me and helped me through the steps, I knew some basics.

Suddenly I noticed there's only the four of us at the dance floor dancing the swing!!waaaaa I felt embarrass! Everyone was watching us! they must've cleared the floor for us to dance properly!

Thank goodness the medley ended. We went back at out seats and rest! I needed a drink after that!

A guy joined our circle while on the dance floor later and I thought he's into me, but realized he's kinda interested at my other two girl friends. haha feeling ako? he's been bugging us about getting our numbers.

Later that night, I noticed a guy near me, he looks Lebanese or something, wearing eyeglasses, between 28 to 30 I guess. Cute...he just joined our circle and came very near me. I ignored him and told myself its normal on the dance floor. So I flirted with him a little, and faced him. I started dancing with him as if he's my exclusive partner LOL!

I'm beginning to have a crush on him haha, but he looked shy. And I'm not sure if he's gay! My gaydar sucks remember?!

When I'm just standing and watching others on the floor, he came near me again, as if he wanna talk to me, I've seen him looking at me from time to time. When he said something, I replied, gave my sweetest smile and that's it, haha TORPEDO na ata akoooooo!waaaaa

I realized also that he's an Arab, and the last thing on my mind right now is to have anything to do with them. I don't wanna get involve with them. I'm just being cautious. I heard many things about them with gay guys. Not raping gays, but them being obsessive and if they cannot get what they wanted they will turn to the government and have gays deported.

So, I have to pass on him this time no matter how cute and nice he seems. Sigh. I also have to pass on that cute pinoy gay guy with his bf too, I just had to look at him from a far, at times, our eyes met and we just have to looked away from each other.

Until, its 2am and its time to go home. Too bad.

My feet ached, and I smell like shit! Too much smoker inside! grrrrrr!
