As many of you can imagine, there's fewer things more frustrating for a young hot college guy than a preference for dick in the 1990's East Coast suburbs and college campuses. Nowadays it's a bit better, but then? Well, those of us dudes that preferred our partners come equipped with a few extra inches had two choices, stay in the closet or stay in the closet. Worse, if we were popular, hot, alpha dudes, we had to dip our sticks in pussy here and there to keep up appearances. That's was great for bisexual dudes, but for truly gay guys, especially those with a bent toward submissive bottoming and an unquenchable desire for dick, that was an extra cross to bear. My sexual frustration reached its pinnacle one night as the summer of 1997 drew to a close,
That fateful night two of my best friends and I were with a Nigerian dude in a bar in Zurich. Each beer made me more obsessed over the thought of his big black cock splitting me in half! The Gods saw fit to pair me with a masculine, dashing, gay black man in a European youth hostile, but also decided to put my two best friends on the other side of a thin wall. The last few nights I had helplessly watched his perfect endowment swinging back and forth like an elephant's trunk as he prepared for bed. Further, There was no doubt he wanted to fuck me as he pranced around and slept naked. Still though, I couldn't succumb to my ultimate fantasy with my friends in such close proximity. Hence I figured I would remain cock-starved for the entirety of my European trip.
It was the last night of a six-week, eight-city tour to promote lacrosse throughout Europe. I was a star player on one of the best college teams in America. We were chosen to play the national teams of eight different countries to expand the growth the game was experiencing overseas. The team left two days earlier directly from Milan. I chose to stay with my two best friends who changed their flights and traveled to Zurich to fuck two Suisse girls they met in Milan the night before the rest of the team left.
I went along figuring maybe it would be easier to lose two guys instead of 18, especially if they planned to spend their time with the girls. It seemed like a good chance to finally get some Euro-Dick! However, that was not the case. They fucked the girls the night we arrived and then turned their attention to getting drunk and finding more conquests. I, of course, was obligated to join them, as there wasn't really a plausible excuse for a 'hot, athletic, pussy-hound' like me not join them in a drunken search for European tail. Now, our early-morning flight loomed like a pendulum and still a hard penis had yet to find a way into any of my cavities!
What could be more frustrating for a horny, beautiful, 20-year old, closeted queer than traveling across eight European cities with 18 testosterone fueled homophobes in 1997? Paris, Barcelona, Milan! Hundreds of beautiful men in tight stylish clothes! And all I could do was crank a few out in the shower while dreaming of those sexy European dicks inside me because I wasn't ready to let those troglodytes know I prefer to ride a man.
The worst part about it was that there was so much sex happening on the trip. Girls were throwing themselves at us in every city and my teammates hosted nightly orgies. Pussy was getting increasingly more difficult for me to stomach, and as I said, I had to fuck a few to keep up appearances, especially on this trip where it was so readily available. I didn't know how much longer I could keep up the charade. Don't get me wrong, women are beautiful, I want to make that clear. But vaginas, ick! Just not my thing. It was getting harder and harder (pun intended) to keep an erection while flopping around in some sloppy cunt.
1997 also pre-dates smart phones and the now ubiquitous availability of porn of all sorts, as well as easy-to-hook-up dating apps. I went from a suburban high school to a traditional (read non-inclusive) university. This limited my gay experiences to four at that time. And if you wanted to get a gay porn video or mag? Well that required human interaction in a seedy porn shop or a gas station. I wasn't ready for that. So the four men who fucked me along with the glimpses of mostly soft dicks in locker rooms were the only visual fantasies available in my mind to stay hard as I pumped those vile Euro-snatches.
So there it was. Christian was my last shot, but even though we were alone in our room and he was gay, that opportunity was tricky. I hadn't acted upon it all weekend. My friends were right next door. What if he was loud? What if he told or even just talked about it, or tried a PDA in front of them? I couldn't risk it. Yes, it certainly seemed like the Gods were playing a cruel trick on me. First, a trip to Europe with zero opportunities to be with a man, then sending me back to my homophobic university, but not before dangling a sexy gay man in my face that was too risky to touch.
Our last night was pretty low-key. We drank a lot but no clubs. We decided to just hang out and reminisce on the trip at a German-style beer hall. I not only had to hear about the 14 women Teddy fucked the past six weeks but I had to discuss my three unavoidable, unpleasant, dalliances inside pussies.
It was about 12:30 a.m. when Teddy and Patrick finally decided to call it a night and get a cab back to the hostile. Our flight left at 7:00, so we had to be up in three and half hours. This was the first glimmer of hope, I would have some alone time with a tipsy Christian. As they prepared to leave, a real chance emerged. Christian decided he was ready to leave but wanted to walk home along the river. My loins tingled a bit at the thought of a romantic moonlit walk late at night along a presumably empty river walk. I quickly seized the opportunity to join him.
Christian and I strolled along the river path under the romantic lights chatting away, but it was not empty as I assumed. I kept hoping for an opportunity to be alone and stop to 'look at the river.' In other words, create an opportunity for us to kiss, grope, and who knows, maybe more. However, it was Saturday night and the people kept coming! In retrospect, it was crazy how in the closet I was, I mean who cares if a stranger sees me making out with a man? But then, no way. Not to mention Christian was a 6'3", 230 pound muscular black man with long dreads, so he kinda already stuck out in Switzerland.
