Was walking around Pavilion after a movie with a friend and we happened to walk into this sports shop. I was looking around and saw this tanned tallish guy who I thought looked pretty interesting. Was just thinking to myself that it’d also be unlikely he was gay.
Then he looks up and catches me gazing so I walk off not wanting to freak out a straight man.
What are the chances of us ending up browsing the same sections 3 times after that, one being speedos and another being gym gloves. The last one was most obvious as we both headed across towards the gym gloves by some mutually synced instinct.
Standing side by side staring at the same gym gloves for a while I wondered if I should say something.
I chickened out and quickly walked towards the tennis rackets.
My friend came and found me and asked if I was done.
I said I was and we left the shop.
Sigh … now I’ll just play the whole incident in my mind a few dozen times and think about kicking myself.

we smiled at each other … that’s how we ended up at the glove section together
i used to be able to do that instinctively … shaozie even used to joke about my modus operandi
guess its been a while
now that u’ve reminded me about the “count to 3 and look back” move … i shall try it the next time
thanks
Next time, at least smile if you can’t bring yourself to say hi. A smile is a green light. If he returns your smile, it’s a green light in return. Then do this:
Walk away slowly.
Count to 3.
Look back.
If you catch his eye, grin bigger.
Then take it from there.
I thought you’re not local! Boys here don’t know how to “fish” sia. *clap clap* Work it, bitch!
i wasn’t dense this time … i just cudn’t muster enough courage to say “Hi”
but this experience has taught me a lesson la
Seize the day … I ain’t getting younger and I shudn’t let such opportunities slip
if I see him again … or anyone else who does the same … I’m just gonna smile and say “Hi”
LOL….Jerm2…..*wink*
Haha, like the time when a guy came over and asked if he could share the bicep machine with me when there are 3 other empty ones.
Yes, we can be so “dense” sometimes.
he was the wholesome looking sporty type. don’t think that wud have worked. guess we were both reserved and waiting for the other to say something
plus i think i wudn’t respond to someone staring at my crotch. we’re not in a sauna leh
you should stare @ his crotch lar
