Which is it?

I’ve just got home from a birthday drinks of a friend where I ran into a guy I was crushing on big time a few months ago. He’d just got back with his ex-boyfriend at the time but is now single again. I’ve long given up hope of anything ever happening but just before my friends and I left, I saw him with his hand on the knee of some guy that was off his tree on party favours. I can’t decide if it’s more of a slap in the face or kick in the guts?

Update: You are all right. I wrote this last night when I was tired and upset. I certainly don’t begrudge anyone finding anyone attractive, physically or mentally. I was feeling ugly and dejected about a whole range of things last night. I’ve taken the word ugly out, because it’s not nice and it shouldn’t have been in there. Apologies. In the past I’ve definitely found guys very attractive for more than the physical and if I ever find someone to settle down with I’m hoping that we’ll have many years together to get fat, saggy and old together but keep making each other smile.

    It has nothing to do with you at all.

    and the ditto’s roll on. Brenton you seem like a great guy; that can be measured by the group of quality friends you have and your wide range of interests. Take care

    Normally I like your pics and what you write but I cringed when you called a guy ugly. Some of us are not handsome and even a kind look from a man let alone having our knees touched can be a dream come true. But I thank you for otherwise having a great website! Sincerely An Ugly Guy

    Have to agree with Mark.
    It’s not all about looks Brenton.
    I know you do a lot to look good, but that’s not such an important thing in life. People get attracted to personalities as well.

    Try to think about the mind some times as well as the package.

    From another Non-handsome guy here, as we get older we all loose some of our looks and if looks is what gets you going then maybe you will have a hard time finding that special somebody. A relationship has more to do with compatibility other than looks, although I do agree that the “mantle piece” is initially important. Maybe these two guys have a past that you are not aware of or you never made your intentions known to this guy that you were interested if he were single.
    If you are only looking for good looking guys then go to the gym more (where the pre-madonna’s hang) or the bath house where you can be as fickle as you like!

    Going by the pic in an earlier post, it is quiet a few years before that butt of yours goes saggy!!

    And this makes you one of the nicest bloggers Brenton. I really appreciated your update on this post.

    By the way, people don’t have to be ugly to have a problem with using this word. I don’t consider myself ugly, so that was not the reason I had a problem with that word.

    I really hope you soon find the man that suits you and that you guys will live happily for many years!

    You are maybe jealous about him. It’s natural though as you really fancy him and now that he’s available he doesn’t pick you. Why? There are many reasons. Plus you seem to be feeling a bit lower than usual which doesn’t help things either. Your Libran scales are “out of whack” at the moment. Don’t beat yourself up about it. They will right themselves again.
