  I just went through an ordeal wit a man that I'm seeing. I'de like to
get feedback from gay readers; either on the net or to my personal mail
account if you or people you know have been through similar ordeals. I've
been seeing the guy for a couple of months. He's very afraid that he's
falling in love with me and doesn't know if he can handle it. We were
supposed to have a nice quiet weekend together and were both looking
forward to it. He had never stood me up and was always on time. Well,
Friday; no Dan....Saturday; no Dan....I was furious. I talked to his 
roomate on Sunday and he was worried since he thought Dan was with me.
  I ran into Dan and a good friend of his. I just looked at him and
said "I wanna talk to you fella!" He agreed and I met him at his place.
He looked truly terrible and was on the verge of tears as he told his
story to his roomates and I. He told me that he wanted to sabotage his
feelings for me by standing me up and going to the baths. He met this
guy who asked hm to go back to his place in Worcester (55 miles West of
Boston). Dan didn't know that there would be another party waiting. The
three of them went to a gay bar out there and Dan was having fun until
he realized he had been slipped LSD in his drink. The only thing he
remembered was being gagged and tied up. I won't go into details about
what happened; all I'll say is that the jerks he got messed up with were 
into a heavy pain and torture scene. He woke up on a park bench in Wor-
cester and had been robbed. He kept telling me "but the guy seemed so
nice at the baths". He was afraid to fall asleep. I wanted to slap the
fool but felt sort of bad for him. 
  I met friends at a neighborhood bar and one friend told me that a 
good friend of his had been through a similar ordeal. He had a nervous
breakdown because of what he went through.
  I know that Dan made his bed and slept in it so to speak. As he told 
me "I got my just deserts". If any of you have been through or know some-
one who has; how did you deal with it? Did you need counseling. Since
Dan seemed to repress his ordeal, I'm afraid that it's going to mess him
up emotionally; maybe not. Dan wants to take action against these people
but doesn't remember where he was taken. Can he warn the bar or bath
managment about certain individuals? Will they really give a damn? It
seems that gay establishments of this sort don't want any trouble. I 
told Dan they probably won't want to get involved.....ya pays ya cover,
ya takes ya chances. Me!! right now I'm pissed.....confused....I want
to hug Dan as well as slug him. I'de love to see the turkeys that pulled
their cute little stunt get theirs. These people are among the lowest
of lowlife if you ask me and are an embarassment to our community. To
drug someone without their knowing and then to do the things that these
guys did is unforgivable. I can now better understand what a woman goes
through after being raped.
