The Best
By Steve Prince
“Am I an idiot?” Alex asked, wide-eyed and fearful.
“No, sugar,” I responded with a wave of my hand. “We’ve all been there.” I looked down at my coffee.
Out of all my friends, Alex is definitely the most optimistic. Whenever one of us has a problem, Alex always considers the alternatives and reminds us of our strengths. It’s obvious that he’s a good attorney; no matter how hard you try to throw a pity party, Alex always talks you out of it.
The funny thing is, as good as Alex can talk me out of being a Debbie Downer, he does a damn good job of talking himself into doubt. I mean, he was raised in Columbia in a fairly strict Catholic family—maybe he’s just really used to Catholic guilt. Whatever the reason, I’m always shocked by his lapses of confidence. He’s successful, very attractive, very fit, and he lives in a beautiful condo right of Ocean Avenue in Santa Monica. That said, he’s also one of the most loyal, kind-hearted guys I know. So as he’s talking to me I sometimes want to say SNAP OUT OF IT, YOU’RE PERFECT. Alas, I don’t. Why? Because he’s my friend and I love him for his insecurities.
“I’m a terrible person,” Alex gulped between sips of his sparkling water. “I mean, here I am with this great guy and I can’t even focus on him. I have to think about two strangers pumping at one another. I’m fucked up.”
“Sweetie,” I said trying to add my best no-nonsense mother voice. “You’re not fucked up. You’re human. So you thought about someone else during sex. You shouldn’t feel guilty.”
“I know Stevie, but I like this guy.” Alex paused. “I don’t want to mess things up.”
Alex had been dating Richard for a while now. We actually called the guy, Richard Gere, because he did resemble Mr. Gere. I had met him once at a Prop 8 protest. Richard oozed charm. His grey-flecked hair perfectly complimented his soft green eyes. Because Richard was fourteen years older than Alex, I could see why he would intimidate Alex. Richard held a job as a CEO, he had several adult children, and his life seemed complete. It was almost as if Alex was seeing Richard they way I often see Alex, as perfect.
“Okay,” I said trying to get a handle on things. “Tell me what happened again.”
Paul and his lover both have something to admit, though it means something different for each of them. Paul’s just discovering the pleasures of man-on-man sex. And his lover? Well, he’s more experienced, but less in another way. They both find some hot middle ground in oral sex, but it’s really intimacy they crave. Virgins is a French film that’s pretty steamy for being only three minutes long.
Dear QC,
I am a loyal reader of the site and love to provide advice when I can. Now I find myself needing advice.
I’ve known this guy, lets call him Nick, for the past 4 years. When I met him I couldn’t stand him, and was actually lusting after his older brother (which was a huge mistake). I did like Nick a little bit when I did meet him though. Thought he was a great guy. Well something happened (a lot of drama) and we lost touch with each other about a year later.
Now on to what I need advice on. About two months ago, I was doing something on my computer. When out of the blue I get a message from someone I don’t recognize and it turns out to be Nick. We talk the entire day and even into the next without any sleep at all. About a week later I realized that I like him…a lot. It wasn’t long after that that he told me that he loved me. I have always had trust issues, but I thought that it’s time to take a chance at love again. So I let him get close to me. And I love him more than most people can love in their own lifetime. Well He’s been talking about suicide because he wants to be out of where he lives (lives in Canada) and go to New York then come here to where I live. But with money and finances the way it’s at with both of us, it’s not looking like it’s going to happen on time. And he’s been talking about suicide and I can’t lose him. I don’t know what to do about this. I’ve beat myself up so much and I’ve cried. I don’t know what to do about this. He’s 20 and I’m 24.
Needing help with advice.
Garrett

Three-way at the vacation home! This was the last day of filming at the desert resort house and Curtis, Rylan, and Trey were still horny as shit (especially Curtis, who was was wagging his big, heavy donkey dick all over the house!). Ken’s asshole was still very sore from being torn up by Rylan the day before, so unfortunately he had to sit this one out.
Ethan Wolfe pops an enormous boner after watching Ty LeBeouf gyrate his beautiful jock-strapped butt on stage. Ethan’s hunger gets the best of him as he devours Ty’s cock and then his tasty pink hole. Ty takes his turn on Ethan’s huge cock deep throating it numerous times getting it ready for his asshole. “FUCK” is all Ty can say as Ethan pounds away. Ethan gets his turn on Ty’s milky white dick bouncing on it until they both climax and collapse in a kiss in this final scene of Masterpiece.

For your Thursday ditty, here’s Tears For Fears with “Sowing The Seeds of Love,” a great socio-political song that also has a pretty tripped-out video. Do yourself a favor and give it a spin. I mean, just check out these lyrics:
Politician Granny with your high ideals
Have you no idea how the majority feels
So without love and a promised land
We’re fools to the rules of a government plan
Kick out the style, bring back the jam
Discrimination’s the problem, love’s the cure. Sow them seeds, bitches!
