feature When blinded by love, many choose to talk it out with their best friends or family members, while quite a number of lovesick
patients do it the old-school way – write to love-advice columns. Useful perspectives and, sometimes, eye-opening remarks from those love mentors have been proven to help save a number of relationships, or even marriages. But when it comes to gay relationships, “Dear Abby”-type columns can be merciless, just like the case of the famous Thai gay love-advice columnist Plernpiss Kidtheungkhun and her column “Ask Plernpiss”. Perhaps an example would give a better picture: Dear Plernpiss, I have been falling in love with my neighbour for years. He lives right next to my house. I really want to talk to him but am always afraid to make the first move. Please, help me with some ideas or excuses to talk to him.
