Staples of Gay Fantasy

Almost every person who's gay has had at least one of the following fantasies.

1. My Best Friend

Having a best friend is almost synonymous with growing up. If growing up includes with wrestling with one's own sexuality, then most likely nearly everyone has had a best friend they've fallen for. To make matters even more complicated, the best friend is most likely straight (or supposedly straight) and with a girlfriend.

This is falling for the familiar. Who else is more qualified to understand you than that one you grew up with? Sex is supposedly better with the familiar and the personal.


2. My Roommate

Continuing the theme of growing up, many go on to a college or university and they're forced to live with someone. This someone is usually a stranger and the promise of an encounter (or a relationship) with a person who doesn't really know you that well is definitely exciting. However the ultimate clincher for this is the intrusion of the unknown into your private life. Having to share your personal space with someone you barely know is so much easier with hot eyecandy.


3. My Hot Co-Worker

Once a guy's out of college and he's faced with the trials of life, the carefree days of experimenting are usually relegated to fond memories (or unspeakable horrors) of the past. The hot co-worker (or boss or subordinate) brings in the dynamic of ruffling up the feathers of monotony at work or finding someone who shares your slot in the rat race. This usually comes in the form of a new hire who shakes up the world of everyone in the office.


Fantasies in my case are synonyms with frustration. Many of us have that great love whom we cannot have. Mine falls in the first and third categories.


Which one is yours?
