I'd just tell them "I'm as straight as a circle" and let them figure it out. xd

Don't judge me.
Just love me.
I'm not a criminal, I'm innocent
So come and set me free!


Well, I'm undecided, but I go as straight for now...

Buuut, if i was a lesbian (and single xD), i'd tell him
"You're an amazing person, but I'm just not looking for a relationship right now." (that's if i'm 1. being nice, 2. not wanting the guy to be uncomfortable cause he's a good person)
If I were in a bitchy mood, i might say something like
"I'm not interested." but then later go and apologize xD my "b***h-flashes" only last up to a half an hour anyway xd

@Yuki_no_Joo: lmfao... nice xD I like that one lol


I choose ecstasy.
And music's my religion.
Magic is my kingdom
And the dance floor is my heaven.

This has actually happened to me a few times -w-

One happened recently with a good friend of mine
and here's how that went

Him: "So hypothetically what would you say if I asked you out"
Me: "I'd day I don't see guys in that way"
Him: "Guys like me?"
Me: "No, guys in general"
Him: "Oh my bad I didn't know"
Me: "Its okay it was never really brought up"
Him: "So you're a lesbian?"
Me: "Exactly"
Him: "Well that's pretty cool"
or something like that xD

Some other guy gave me a letter he typed out and told me to read it when he was gone, the next day
Him: "So did you read the letter"
Me: "Yep I did"
Him: "I'm crazy huh?"
Me: "Yes you are, but hey I'm crazy too"
Him: "High five?"
Me: "Heck yes!"
*epic jump high five* and that was that :3
(though this guy knew I was a lesbian earlier so I don't know why he did what he did xD)

i'd be all like "ummm no im not your type "and if he says "how do you know what my type is" i 'd be all like "i dont f**k around with you people i only go for the femanime type because i am a lezbo" and that would be all i would say.

So, I haven't really run into this situation yet, but say a guy was to ask me out, not knowing I was gay. It would be logical to tell him (or her, if you're a gay man) you're not interested, but how would one go about this? -_-;;

I've always thought it would be kind of awkward to straight out say "Sorry, it's not because you're a bad person, it's because I'm a lesbian."

Any thoughts?

Just tell them you're gay? It might be a little awkward but it's better than making excuses! And from experience, never say "Maybe if you were straight" Not a good idea razz

"Chicks over dicks, man."

I would actually just say that they're not the kind of thing I'm looking for. Doesn't give away too much, doesn't tell a lie, sweet and simple.

Given that my now-wife spend the better part of the first two decades of her left believing heart and soul that she was a lesbian, my views may be a bit skewed on this, but I must ask for context. Is this hypothetical occurring between someone that you've known for years and years and have a close friendship with, or someone at a club? In the latter instance, you can just yell that he's not what you're looking for. If he hears you over the music, he'll probably let you dance on out of the immediate area with no further questions. Such is the nature of the celebration of superficiality that is the modern nightclub.

I'm talking more about a guy I know likes me, and we've known each other for a while (not as close friends, but still on meeting terms) and my family is friends with his. I feel like I've dropped a lot of hints, but I'm not sure he gets it.

I'll be the first person to say that there is absolutely nothing wrong with being gay, or at least that to be gay is no worse than to be straight, though... As a straight man myself it is uneasy ground that I here tread upon, but have you (any gay or straight person would be welcomed to answer this one) ever considered that maybe, just maybe, you could look at your sexuality (gay or straight; if you're bisexual you're already there) as not something that you were born with, not a part of your identity, but an obstacle that if overcome, might just be standing in the way of an incredible relationship?
I only ask because I have absolutely no idea what my life would be like now if my wife hadn't done that. As long as she's around, I'll never have to go through the confusion and angst that came with that transformation, but what if your (any of your) inability or refusal to do so is costing you what otherwise just might be the love of your life?
It's just food for thought, really. I sure hope that no one took this as a condemnation of being either gay or straight.

No, I'm 100% sure I'm not straight.

I've actually questioned it a lot before, just because it's really frustrating to have your relationship pool cut down so much. No matter how I look at it, even if there are some guys I find attractive, I could never see myself in a relationship with one. The guy friend is a totally sweet guy, and I hope he finds someone wonderful, but I could never date him.

This actully happened to my best-friend at the mall a few days ago when I was with her.

We had just come out of Forever 21 when we were approached by this guy. Me being the straight one immdeiatly took intrest. When he walked up to use he started flirting...but not with me. With my best-friend. I was ready to start laughing because she had this agonized face on. Finally she told me, "Sophia...please explain it to him....please...I just can't..." she then ran back into F21.

Him and I stood there awkwardly or like 2 minutes not even talking. Finally he spoke up.

HIM: Not my team?
Me: Nope
Him: Not even playing for both.
Me: Nope
Him: Every. Damn. Time. Sorry...

He just walked off. It was the most awkwardly funny thing in the world. My friend then comes out.

Her: Is he gone?
Me: Yea
Her: How'd he take it?
Me: He guessed
Her:....well if he guessed then my Dad must be onto me...quick come with me I've gotta practice my straight girl act!

Then we ran into the closest bathroom....it was probably one of the most interesting moments of my life.
