"Boy Meets Boy" alum Dan Wells reflects on his deception...

,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,danwells.jpgRemember the Bravo "dating" show "Boy Meets Boy" where one dude (James Getzlaff) gets to be the "bachelor" and get wooed by dozens of guys? The annoying thing was that some of the guys were NOT gay! They were part of the reality show twist or whatever. Is it any wonder that we never saw a season two of this 2003 disaster?

I don't remember much from the show - and I did see every episode - but I do remember one particularly hot contestant who flashed his backside in the shower. His name is Dan Wells and he was one of the straight ones. So, in the current issue of Entertainment Weekly, Dan is among the former reality show participants interviewed for an article titled: "What Were They Thinking?"

Here's part of what Dan says now about that experience: "I reached a point where I was like, 'Dude, this isn't cool.' People started getting emotional. Then you see the difficulty James had with his decisions, and here I am toying with him. It wasn't very nice. ... But it wasn't tough to act gay. You just pretend that you feel about guys the way you feel about girls. You learn as you go and you watch how the gay men were acting and behaving and so forth, and you role with the vibe of the situation."

If I remember correctly, one of the other gay guys in the house actually fell for Dan too. So I can understand why he would have been uncomfortable with the lying.
