Straight DatesStraight Dates. Anyone else seem to have them? Do you have those friends that seem to get together with you to flirt, tell you about their man problems, share info about their sex lives (explicitly), or tell you they're going through early mid-life crisis and are ready to explore? I dunno...it seems like I meet for drinks to catch up and it turns into a date of sorts. Nothing really ever happens but it's so hilarious that now my gay friends say things like: 'so, how many straight dates do you have this week?'. (the answer is two next week) Just curious if I'm the only sucker out there. Submitted by graciel (69 posts) on February 24, 2007 - 8:02pm. |

you're not the only one
you're not the only one don't worry !! many straight friends of mine tell me things like
" ooo i'm so sick of guys , my boyfriends is a jerk , i'm gonna be a lesbian ..." or
" boys and girls are so different, you lesbians must get along so well , two girls together coz you understand each other right ? "
" i'm gonna break up with my boyfriend and find a girl to be with, it's easier "
whatever ...
Comme disait Jeanne D'Arc : " tu verras de quel bois je me chauffe " ;)
I have the same problem
Oy...
It's frustrating when my straight friends do the "I haven't seen you ALL day! Will you go to dinner with me?"
Me: " Can I bring So and So?"
Them: "No... I want to be alone with you."
And then it turns into them bitchin about their boyfriends, or worse, flirting shamelessly with me until I cant sit still anymore.
Although, I play my games too... I have a friend who is bicurious, I think. I know she is curious about being with me, so I take her on "mini-dates" and treat her well, just so she sees what an ass her boyfriend is.
" But soft! What light through yonder window breaks? It is the East and Juliet is the sun! Arise fair sun and kill the envious moon." - Sometimes I feel like Romeo.
hehe. Well..at least I'm not
hehe. Well..at least I'm not alone.
What's sad is that lately I'm enjoying the drama-less flirting over a good meal. :P
I can relate.
Yep, It happens
In new social situations I am usually not out and because of that I used to just meet the bi and lesbians amongst the group. Well recently I have been in a new social circle, but decided I would be honest with them about my sexuality.
I have never been flirted with so shamelessly by so many straight woman. They touch me intimately, try to play kissing games with me and tell me all about their terrible, selfish men.
I think that it is because we are so much freer these days to live our lives the way we want (same sex marriages being the latest freedom) that the 'bull dyke' image of lesbianism has slipped away and straight woman can relate to us. They are trying lesbianism on for size.
I don't mind the flirting, but with very little actualisation it seems pretty pointless and I have eased off seeing my new friends because of it (and the fact that they drink so much!).
you're not alone
i have to admit i have more straight friends than gay friends.
and these straight dates aren't just with girls, guys too. i have guys asking me why woman do this why they do that.. and girls going how come i can't date him or why he's a jerk etc... i guess to straight people we have 2 different points of view and we see things better. my ex gf sometimes think my guy friends are really my bf's and the girls i hang out with are little flirts. but then again i'm a nice person overall so i can't help it.
