Did You Know?

He said “I’m not intense,” then sent a voice note that made your knees weak.

He asked if you like foreplay. You said yes. He said, “Then I’ll start with conversation, eye contact, and remembering everything you said three nights ago.”

He asked “Why are you single?” — and suddenly you’re unpacking trauma over cocktails.

You’re not in a situationship — you’re in a GaysNear original series, set in Rochester, now streaming.

You never told him how much that late-night voice note meant. But you still play it on days when silence feels heavy.

The video was blurry. His background was a mess. But when he looked into the camera and said, “You make me feel like I’m someone worth seeing,” you forgot about everything else.

He didn’t try to fix your fears. He sat with them like they were old friends, and asked, “What do they usually say when they visit?”

He didn’t talk about sex. He talked about presence. Said, “I want to sit behind you while you brush your teeth and pretend that’s just how life is now.”

You whisper “I wish you were here.” He replies, “I am.” And for a second, you believe it.

He says he can’t host. But says it like he wants you to offer.
