My life and the gay men in it........

What is it with Gay men in my life? There seems to be alot of them. Which is ok, because gay men make excellent friends. Seriously. They seem to more outgoing and willing to do things such as go see "Singing in the Rain" with you and they always comment on your outfit or shoes. (good or bad, believe me)
Every book I have read in the past year has been written by a gay man. My current read explores Gay marriage.
My two newest friends are both gay.
I am going camping with them in July. One has never been. He asked me if I would put up his tent for him. (which I'm sure will be a 3 room villa). I said no, but I would show him how to do it.
I have taught a gay man to throw a football for the first time, create his first smores, and next, how to camp. This man was once a dancer in Vegas and gets pedicures every two weeks, so it should be intersting.
One thing a gay man cannot provide me however is anything beyond friendship.Having gay men as friends will only lead you to meet more gay men. Why are straight, single, 40 something men not coming into my life as well? What is the message here?
Is it just easier to attract someone you will never have a romantic connection with?
Who knows. But in the meantime, I know my shoes will always get a comment whether it be a "CUTE SHOES" or the famous look with a "uh, huh" which means you must never wear those shoes again.
