Friend 2 is 25-years old, in a relationship with a 40-yr old guy, and goes to the same gym as I am. I'd like to say he's "committed", but the appropriate term would be "taken".
He asked me, one time, about a certain bathhouse in the city. I said I've been there. He knew about it and learned that guys his age or younger can get in for free.
He asked me if I can accompany him to that place.
A simple request can have complications. Sa sarili ko na lang. It's in my principle not to take someone to the baths. It's like influencing people badly. I remember convincing a person to sign up at Farenheit just to get in for free. I don't wanna be a like that to people, and making a negative impact by bringing them to a lifestyle they may stick to.
Pangalawa, friend ko yung partner nya. Sure, we'll keep it a secret. Yeah, he'll never know, this boy promised. And I am not really close to the guy. But would I be willing to be an accomplice of an unfair game to a person? No.
Simple lang pinanghahawakan ko: "do not do unto others what you don't what others to do unto you".
I guess a bad history of infidelity and lies has opened my eyes to these things.
Saka, justification naman ni boylet na matagal na daw silang hindi nagsesex. Kahit pa sa bakasyon at pag-iibayong dagat nilang dalawa, wala daw nangyayari. Bakit di mo simulan, mag-initiate ka, baka pagod lang yung tao. Makailang beses na daw nyang sinubukan, pero wala.
Well, is it a good enough justification to look for sex somewhere else? I insited to him to work things out with his partner first.
"So, sasama ka ba sa akin sa Lunes?"
Hindi ako makasagot
nang diretso.
"But would I be willing to be an accomplice of an unfair game to a person? No."
ReplyDeleteYou are really a GUARDIAN tita ko. :)
As I tell people when they ask me to accompany them in a bath house.
ReplyDelete"You will find the thrill of what's lurking within dark corners when you're exploring the corridors alone."
We share the same stand when it comes to introducing our worlds to people close to us.
pramis, never pa kong nakapasok sa mga bath houses ... hmmm ma try nga... :-P
ReplyDeleteI agree with Galen, you've been there, you've done that, heck, you've done that too many times.
ReplyDeleteBath houses has a unique culture, like Malate goers or even online chatters.
If this guy wants to go there then let him be.
And I'm not thinking pessimistically but just in case the secret went out on the open at least you won't be blamed for being an accomplice to the perpetrator.
And linis mo Carrie!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeletewahaha...
Eto lang sa akin, HELLO! Bago mo pa siya isama sa bathhouse, alam na niya na may gannung kalakaran. Hindi dahil sasamahan mo siya, e magkakasala ka na. At 25, he has all the freedom to do what he wants (and that includes him being unfaithful towards his partner). However, along with this freedom is the innate konsensiya na mali ang gagawin niya and that he may have to live with its consequences.
Ngayon, if you have been a friend enough to let him realize that yet he still wants to go through with going to the bathhouse with you, then masaya kaya pagmay kasama ka. Mangatok kayo sa mga naka-lock na pinto at mangokray.
bwahaha
