You know, its kind of starting to irritate me when people assume that Im interested in men.

I mean I am ....:)

but, I feel like the better question to ask folks is "Are you with someone right now ?" Or "Do you have someone special in your life" (The doctor hit me with that one once, and I thought that was nice)

I really hate the "Why don't you have a boyfriend ?!" question.

Idk.... can anyone feel me on this one ?

I think this might vary a lot from region-- I definitely can understand how that question is very annoying.

Around where I live, and definitely in my workplace, the term of "sig. other" is totally common, even for heterosexual couples. Usually it seems to be used for just about anyone you aren't married to, so I do hear at work things like "oh her sig. other lives out in Glendale" even if it's a male. I have heard people ask the question that way too, ever since I was in college. Among friends of course boyfriend/girlfriend is still the more common, and in really casual settings where people are more familiar.

I remember the very first time I was asked, in college, I took it a bit defensively-- to me, someone asking the question that way seemed to be "implying" they didn't think you would be interested in women if you were male, lol. But it's just gotten more and more common. It doesn't seem or sound strange to me anymore, or like it's implying anything.

Yeah, I say it sometimes but I usually just say...

"Are you with someone ?" "What's the person's name ?" I try to keep it neutral, you never know.

I know that people dont mean anything by it though.
 
Story of my dating life. Guy after 3 months calls me a douchebag or other synonym and dumps me and 3 months later comes crawling back like nothing happened.

I just want to punch them but I get enough satisfaction knowing they are emotionally retarded.

One of the biggest pet peeves that not only got on my last nerve, but tap danced all over it - I especially noticed this when I dropped 100 pounds - was being asked about women, and if I was starting to see anyone. It was a hard life lesson reality check for me that I really couldn't handle the attention I was getting. (Word to the wise - when you drop a significant amount of weight, be ready to get a shit-ton of inadvertent attention you didn't ask for, whether you like it or not, whether you want it or not! Be ready for more-or-less complete strangers whom you only regularly see in passing to literally be all up in your business, as if you've been BFFs since kindergarten.)

And I guess that's a byproduct of me being hyperintroverted, being very in my shell, and that being all I've ever known. But yeah, the references to me dating women... I do my best to be polite and diplomatic on the outside. But inside my head, I just want to knock hell out of some of these people and tell them to STFU.

And some of these people were the very nice people who worked at my gym I went to at the time. I know they meant well, but having to be a closeted gay guy at the time (different, small-town environment, with a conservative diametric), and keep my mouth shut, it just made my anger at the time that much stronger, that I couldn't say anything against those remarks. I just had to smile and nod, while inwardly seething.

People are so mean, why kick me when I'm down?

Think of all the people who haven't kicked you when you are down...it might help a bit.

When you are in a bad place or facing a lot of negativity it helps to remember the silver lining sometimes and take the focus off of the negatives.(*8*)

Thank you, I've been trying to meet guys for a while now. I appreciate everyone online, but I need someone in real life and it's killing me that I don't connect with anyone, it's even worse when guys are rude.

Did you meet an asshole? If so...it does happen...but the trick is to keep going out and connecting to people and you will meet someone you like.

When I worked in the bar...you never know when someone is just gonna go off on you and so instead of letting it get me down I would consciously make sure I got to know a couple of people I had never really met before...I was really afraid of being bitter and letting them get to me so I figured extending myself would be the natural remedy...and it worked. I saw a lot of people who were bitter and it wasn't attractive... to say the very least.
 

Basically describes what being gay is a straight world feels like.

Also I wanted to say a big thank you to everyone who sent me well wishes a few days ago. I didn't respond to anyone, it's not personal I've just been going through some stuff. When I'm upset I usually don't talk to anyone.

Love to you all. (*8*)
