For Gay men: Do gay men find "Platonic" friendships difficult to attain with other gay men?

Not all men are on the make 24/7, for starters..........If you are being totally upfront with these men about what you are seeking, then I don't see why they would hle you. It's all according to how YOU are responding to these events that matter. Are you paying your own way? Does the other guy "think" it's a date? Are you flirting? Guys are guys, and if they feel encouraged by you, who's fault is that? State your case and hold to your decision!
