ISLAS SYNDROME

Unusual social disorder that plagues mostly damaged, homosexual males. In it, the affected individual falls madly in-love with his victim on the first date; spending much of the night looking starry-eyed into his face like a wounded puppy. Sappy texts follow the date such as "You're amazing" and "I had the best night ever!". The affected individual is clear in his intention that he's completely "ready" for a relationship and not a game player like the others. He begins using futuristic descriptors such as "when you're my boyfriend" and "when you start staying the night" and corny phraseology such as "I need to see you again for my own selfish purposes". This type of unusual activity lasts anywhere from 24 to 72 hours but usually not more then three days. During this period one or two additional dates may follow but interest for the victim wanes dramatically. The drop-off usually occurs when his victim displays such unsavory traits such as an unfiled fingernail or an eyebrow hair that has gone awry. Perhaps the victim makes mention that he refrains from eating steak or the horrifying revelation that he is simply a regular, nice guy and not some mythical "night in shining armor" figure the affected individual has fabricated in his own mind. Ultimately, the victim is simply blown-off by the affected individual within the three-day period never to be heard from again. Some victims (who buy into this behavior in any degree) are left with a sense of confusion, hurt, and anger.
