      @@thomasrokos5433 Hi Thomas. That must be so hard to have not been with anyone for 20 years. I don’t know how anyone can still meet other guys other than going to gay bars, bathhouse or the apps. Unless they meet at some gay community centre or coffee shops. I am old school too, I met one of my exes at a coffee shop in the gayborhood in Vancouver in the late ‘90s….we literally had to give our numbers on a piece of paper to call each other….i guess that’s what I consider to be meeting someone organically 25 years ago.

    Many people said they have been rejected but think about it, how many have we rejected others in our lives. Many complained that relationships are not long lasting, then how much efforts have we put in during those relationships we had. We complain but we should self reflect at the same time on how we behave. It’s always easier to point fingers but maybe we should pause and think in what ways can we improve so that we can attract the person we want and treasure him/her once there and lowering our expectations. No hate intentions here… just sharing my thoughts and reflections as well… bless all 🙏

    Thanks for the video Wing - the steam room and sauna are filthy at Steamworks, especially with germs which are invisible to the eye. The hot tub and jacuzzi are over chlorinated and terrible for the skin, and often people urinate and defecate in them. Going to the bathhouse has destroyed my self-esteem because it is an endless cycle of rejection and harassent by people you don't want to hook up with. But I keep going back despite knowing how unhygienic the place is. Going often you quickly realize it's the same people there who haunt the place regularly.

But I do have a nice furry companion rescue dog that I’ve had for 15 years he’s still going, definitely takes the sting out of the loneliness. Also praying & having faith in God for His will not mine. I am not a religious fanatic but I do enjoy books on how to become more spiritual and I do have some close friends that I connect with socially. But I have to admit my biggest and best comfort is my dog. I know not everyone can own a dog depending on their living situation.

    Hello from Vancouver. Your videos speak to me. The whole gay scene is and always has been so off putting to me. I only went to a bathhouse once and although it was fun, the whole time I was like "what are you doing here? this is not your scene" There are many quality guys out there, just hard to find one and even when you do, rare that you are both compatible and attracted to each other. I am just slightly older than you and my attitude is - yes, it would be great to find someone, but I am not actively looking. Just living my life enjoying my job, friends, family, pets and hobbies. If it happens, it happens, if not oh well.

I don't get to be with him as often as I prefer but, it feels good to know we can get together, when we both have the time. He's not everything I want but; I feel he's enough.

      I totally agree Christopher! I thought this was a fictional short story, an "art house" film (maybe because of the great music). So I began watching it as such. But as I was nearing the conclusion, after he left the bathhouse, I came to the realization that this was "real" -- a first person account of being a middle-age gay man in a big city. And it made me SO SAD! There is loneliness throughout modern society, but perhaps no group more so that single older gay men.
      And to Wing Lee: do not give up hope. Learn to enjoy your own company and hobbies and interests ... and then strive to find people to enjoy those things with. I relate to you. But I am 64 years old living in a small city in the USA, far away from any "gay community." And i have been single for about 18 years. At least you are a young (to me) 48 year old living in Toronto, one of the most cosmopolitan cities in the world. You have the 2nd half of your life to look forward to. Love will come, if you stay active and open to it. Best wishes! 😄👍❤️🙏🌈

      @ Hi Mark. I am glad and happy to hear that you thought my video was an arthouse short film at first….maybe it’s because I work in the film industry and also a film buff that automatically make my videos like a short film in terms of editing, music and pace etc. Nothing was exaggerated in the video, it’s exactly how I felt and experienced as a single middle aged gay man in Toronto. It’s a reality that hits so close to home for many gay men, not necessarily middle aged ones. I do try to live my life to the fullest even if no man is in my life romantically or sexually. This particular vlog was to convey how sometimes I still need and want sex. I had been able to handle being alone and no sex with anyone, like the Covid period at least 1 year only resorted to solo sex.
      Anyways, I am glad you enjoyed the video and appreciate your detailed and thoughtful comment. Thank you and take care. ❤️😊

      @@chrissouza2108 Hi Chris. Thank you so much for watching my video and that it resonated with you, as well as sharing your thoughts and experiences in the comment. It must be so hard for you, and I am glad you learnt to live life in solitude and away from the superficial gay world. Take care. ❤️😊
