Parents of straight children try to match their children with potential boyfriends or girlfriends all the time.

I'm wondering if anybody out there been lucky enough to have a mom or dad that is so accepting they would try and match you up with a man.

In my family this would never happen. My parents know that I'm gay and are mostly accepting it but they never talk about it. They would never ask about how my love life is going and would certainly never try to match me up with a dude.
 
My mother does constantly! Every time she meets a gay man, she finds out if he's single, talks me up and has even shown a few a picture before.

It's sweet I guess, but can sometimes be a little irritating. Still, it's nice that she's so cool about it.
 
nope. my mom used to ask me if i had a gf before all the time, well, whenever i'd see her anyways. now she doesnt ask if i have a bf.

my dad doesnt ask about anything personal, because 'he's a guy,' so being afraid of talking about everything is how he is.
 
No.

My mom was crying when she told me how much she wanted to find a girl for me, so that I would have a traditional Indian wedding, and that how all of her friends had Indian children who were getting arranged marriages as well.

She also told me she will never help me find my "homo boyfriend." She said that maybe I'm gay because I did something horrible in my last life.
 
Only once:

My Mother (drunk): "Hey, this is Steve! Guess what? He's gay and not camp, and you're gay and not camp!"

*Wanders away with the general air of having set the world to rights*

Steve: "Hey."

Me: "Hey. I suppose now we can figure out precisely how much we don't have to talk about?"

Steve: "Seems that way..."

*We chat for a while then part ways.*

It took Mother a while to figure out that the incidence of being gay isn't really enough basis for a meaningful relationship.
 
My mother (who I don't speak to anymore) always refused to acknowledge my personal life in any way after I came out. I live with my dad, and I get the feeling he doesn't especially want me to date anyone. I think he thinks it would take away from our "dates," which amount to just about the only social interaction he gets these days; plus I think he likes me watching his condo while he works 20 hours a day. :rolleyes:

Exactly this. Hell, I bring it up on occasion just so they'll get more used to the topic.
 
lmao, I can't see that ever happening.

Same here. It only ever seems to come up during an argument, when I can't even actually talk about it.
 
no and even if they knew i was gay, i wouldn't want them doing something i could do myself.
 
No. But they really didn't have time to. I fell in love at 17 and that was it. They are or were the best parents in the world and treated my Steve like my 4 other brothers spouses. I'm sure they would have tried, they just never had a chance.
 
My mother and her ex-girlfriend has tried. Both were beyond disasters. :##:
 
No but I'm sure if I was single and lived near her, she would.

But I've been with my husband for 20 years and moved out at 18. So... she never had the chance.
 
the results of the poll.........are exactly what I expected.

While it's unknown how many parents of straight children try to match their children up........it's certian that parent's of gay children ,as a whole, try to match up their children much less
 
Parents do not know so my mother occasionally tires to set me up with chicks that usually do not go very well.

A friend of my sister (who knows) is a lesbian who is always trying to set me up with guys. It does get kind of weird sometimes.
 
No, my parents haven't tried setting me up with anyone.

I wouldn't really read too much into this poll as it wasn't scientific.

I don't think they even know about Craigslist so how could they find me a nice guy?

I like your sense of humor.

My mom keeps bugging me to find a man and tried getting me to talk to some young gay men at my sister's house-warming party, but has never actually tried setting me up. I still answered yes to the poll question figuring it's close enough.

Some people need all the help they can get to find someone. It's the thought that counts.
 
Nope, but my Mom likes to ask me about my love life lol. She loves my boyfriend too... >.> sometimes I think they plot against me....
 
My 80 year old mom is constantly sending me links to profiles on Recon. *sigh* She loves the kink.
