I thought the same thing only without the April Fools part as it is now 12 days after April 1 and I'm just watching this now. This video made me click the subscribe button.
You thank us for watching, but we should thank you for talking to us. You're a so brave and talented. You're telling us your story, your stories, and it seems so genuine. I wouldn't be able to chat in front of a camera or acting as you do in your "webseries" ("My straight roommate" should definitively be a webseries. Like a lot of people here I lived a lot of stuff, but the biggest thing is my first love: I was 22 and he was my very first lover. I never had any relationship before, not even sex. The thing is that I am european and he was latino. I crossed the world to be with him. Now time passed, our lives took different ways and I am still a little broken, but to know that I am not alone going through hard stuff is kinda comforting because I know we can overcome it. Thank you Daniel, you're very sweet and kind.
You’re the most adorable person 😭 just keep doing you cause I love this channel. You’re so authentic man, thanks for being a part of my escape and my support as a gay man. And you’re pretty cool too. :p
I like your stories, they're hilarious yet poignant. They make you think, unlike a lot of the pablum we usually get from other channels. Keep up the great work.
Daniel, you've made me feel more comfortable being in my own skin as a gay Latino since I've always felt alone but I know now that it's not true. Going to college opened my eyes and I'm just glad to have you and other gay you tubers there whenever I'm feeling down. BTW your series is so funny and I love your acting! Keep up the great content!
Thank you Daniel for your kind words and amazing videos. I am also a first generation American. My parents came from Mexico and left everyone and everything they had behind to come here and start a family and give them a better life than they had known. By seeing what you're doing and giving people like us a voice I can't tell you how happy I am to see you achieving success to make your mother proud. I really see you on national TV. You're like a modern day Will and Grace. You're funny, relatable and real. Keep doing what you're doing.
I relate to u so much ...I am Indian and gay and in my country being your authentic self is not an option,so I watch UA-cam to give me hope and comfort that I have ppl who share similar stories like me ,who have beautiful lives..u r a sweetie Daniel and so is Max
@@modih.8645 Not everywhere.. maybe you are in a place and situation where you are openly accepted.. but whatever it might be.. everyone takes their time to come out gauging the situation around them.. you are probably in an exceptional situation, the norm is still different.. otherwise there would have been no need for LGBTQIA people in India to have struggled and fought so much. Peace!!
I went to a government college, an NIT, no one did anything to me. I just explained everything to everyone. Showed my friends videos and documentaries and they accepted me. It’s actually all in your head. India is pretty accepting.
@@modih.8645 My friends have not had such a good experience.. so all I am saying is that you were lucky to have that.. not everywhere it's like that.. there is another side as well!!
@modi H ... really I did not refer to as if I was coming for Indians ...I was sharing my experience...I had difficulty throughout my school life and still do at an esteemed government medical school ,my uncle was bullied to commit suicide coz he was gay, just bcoz some ppl r ok with us ...don't think for a second everyone will be so fucking nice and understanding all the time
Thank you for this video. A lot of times I feel alone. There are not a lot of gay people where I live, and there are definitely not enough good gay role models around. I really like youtubers like you because you guys give me hope and make me feel less alone. I’m glad I discovered your videos.
So sweet of Daniel! It seems like you will make a real good friend. And I am FULL support with you and Max haha your chemistry is always on point. 😍 Love your videos!
Thank you for sharing Daniel. I know it's a year old video but umm...just thought to let you know. My fav video of your is "Hates me". Hope you are well and looking forward to your next video.
I absolutely love all of your "My Straight Roommate" vids just coz Max and your characters have such an awesome relationship and it's believable and it's done with heart! Thank you both so much! xoxox
I just found your channel and have been watching all day. Rainy Sunday here in the NW and 3 days to Christmas "19. I really appreciate each of your stories. You're both so natural in movement, speech, acting... everything is fluid and realistic. I am deffinately an odd duck. I identify as straight...because of era in which I grew up, also religious background and lets not forget former military. I think military is still my #1 family. I have MST (Military Sexual Trauma for those who didnt know). Prior to military, I had girlfriends. In military, I was part of an elite drill team that represented our base. We each had senior drill team members to help us be inspection ready at any time. Mine was a cool dude...ladys man, gym guy and he knew his shit...I thought we were best friends... Now, years later, i realize I've been always been looking for 'my best friend'. It hasn't worked well. It's hard to find a straight man that wants to be with a straight man. Please...no haters. I know all the arguments about; you cant be christian, like men and be a republican and be gay and if you prefer guys THEN UR GAY. And you cant be gay and Christian too. That may be reality for 99.999 of the world but not my reality... ..my fav saying is, 'I'm waiting for th mother ship to return to pick me up but they dont want me either'. I wish someone had an answer. 🙃 Loving your art. Dont stop. 👏👏🤠
Gracias por ser la voz de inspiracion y acceptancia. Hoy en dia todo es abuso, violencia, muerte y segregación. Gracias por ser una voz de harmonía y alegría. Saludos.
beautifully said. Your stories are articulate, direct yet subtle , touching , humorous , poignant and best of all true to the human condition. Masterful skills and I'm often left with the feeling that I'd like to be a friend of yours. testament to your communication skills and ability to write in a connected way. Keep up the good work .Good things will come your way.
Firstly, you’re super cute! At least from my point of view. Secondly, the genuineness with which you spoke was not only heard but seen as well: your eyes shone, your smile lit up ... This post was one of the best of its genre, imo. Lastly, thank you for being real, which, as you said, is not always easy.
Not to be dramatic, but I think your smile may have partially cured my depression...?? :'D But on a serious note, this video was so sweet Daniel! I'm so glad I found your channel, you're so lovely and talented. Keep up the fantastic work, and I can't wait to continue with you on your journey
OMG. You are just SO adorable. I have only been a part of UA-cam for a few months. I came across one of your videos, and you were one of the very first channels I subscribed to. You have made me laugh and you have made me cry. You have given me what I feel is some of the most incredible entertainment I have ever had. I always check several times a day to see if there is any new content from you. Oh, wait ... today IS april fools day...I hope you're not joking with us. Anyway, I am so very hooked on you I can't even begin to tell you. I love everything you put up and can't wait for more. PLEASE keep sharing stories with us. Your content is more important to a lot of people than you will ever know. All that is left for me to say is THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU.
That was SO sweet & authentic,kudos👏👏👏 AND again congratulations on your WONDERFUL short film "My Best Friend" 👌🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟👍💥👊❤💯 Such a wonderful book,such a beautiful & poignant film. Please,just keep doing what you're doing; VERY best wishes to you you & yours👋🌟✌💖🌈👊
What a great little video! I enjoy your channel so much. The videos are quaint and calm. I like your perspective. Thank you for sharing with us. I hope that there continues to be more representation for all of us.
your content gives me such solace, inspiration, and strength as I navigate through challenging times in my life. Please keep your videos coming. i'm subscribed and even have the notifications button turned on. Thank you for bringing your genuine realness to UA-cam, and sharing it with guys like me. I'm a Venezuelan immigrant, and I currently live in New York City. I've been in this country for about 15 years, and many times I've struggled with loneliness, which is why I, too, have turned to social media, especially UA-cam and Instagram. Creating content, editing, sharing it, and seeing other people's content makes me feel as if I'm not alone anymore. So... From the bottom of my heart. Thank you, Daniel... Thank you, thank you, thank you. P.S. Feel free to see my content on my channel, too, if you'd like.
I love watching your videos because it reminds me of when I used to live with my best friend who is straight. All the little fights in between and dumb arguments that we would get into, friends would tell us we fought like an old married couple, hehe. I enjoy your content I sometimes just check UA-cam to see if you have posted something new. Cheers!!
Thank you for sharing your life experiences and for staying true to yourself. I appreciate you and Max, and I relate to your experiences more than ever. I agree that UA-cam has allowed people of color a way to speak and deliver our messages without fear. So again thank you for allowing your fans to share your adventures with you.
Hi there. I love your series. I too love stories, we all have one, (well several) I participate in your life by commenting. I am much older now, and have already walked the road you are on now. And No, you are never alone. Because men like me are out here, watching, listening, sharing what I know. If you change ONE LIFE, in this web series, you've done your job, well done. Gay today, is not the same as gay in the 80's or 90's and even the 2000's. The spectrum is so wide and variant. And lovely too. Keep sharing. Keep that light within you and with Max. A best friend is hard to find, and when you've found that friend keep them close, never lie to them, and always tell the truth, even if it hurts. Know we are out here, and that you are loved a great deal. Greetings from Montreal.
I am learning from you. I'm a storyteller too. ♡♥ I've been both admired and ridiculed for being friends with gays. I see you guys as human beings too.
Oh ... My gosh! Look at his eyes his eyebrows, his lips, his dimple, his smile those are incredibly perfect, I'm just wondering why God just give it to you, I mean can I have one of yours, this is not fair or can you just kiss me, I beg you please!!

PLEASE don't make all of your stories about young, nice-looking people. And PLEASE don't wrap every story up with a facile happy ending. Terrible things happen, as we all know, and each person has to find a way to continue living into their God-given worth, regardless of how shattering life has been, Old people have stories about how they kept on keeping on. Don't get me wrong: I respect and admire your work. Let wider demographics and more ambiguous story arcs enrich what is already very good. God bless you!

I legit was expecting for you to say Max was really gay and you were together... followed up with an APRIL FOOLS! Lol!
Omg meeee toooooo
I thought the same thing only without the April Fools part as it is now 12 days after April 1 and I'm just watching this now. This video made me click the subscribe button.
I expected that, too, but without the April Fools. Daniel is so sweet and adorable..
Daniel, you’re such a sweetheart. Your stories are amazing, thank you so much for sharing👌🏽
Right after you said, "I'm gay," I heard my mind say , "and I'm beautiful." You show us love, for which I am grateful.
I greatly appreciate your words. Keep the stories coming - they are awesome.
You’re so adorable babe. Never stop making videos. I’m also first gen & Latino so it’s great to see that being represented on this platform. ♥️
You thank us for watching, but we should thank you for talking to us. You're a so brave and talented. You're telling us your story, your stories, and it seems so genuine.

Thank you for sharing your story and for showing how strong you became to show others that we're not alone. 💙
Daniel, you've made me feel more comfortable being in my own skin as a gay Latino since I've always felt alone but I know now that it's not true.

I admire your courage and strength.. keep it up and never lose sight of it.. wish you all the best..
