This guy has to be the gayest straight guy in history, but he’s also so smart and so talented and so wonderful. We love the same things, and we should be together dammit.
The only problem is that he’s straight. Who saw that coming? I know I didn’t. Not only is he this wonderful person, he is one of the best musicians I’ve ever heard. I’m gonna put some of his mp3’s on my website so you guys can hear him, and understand.
Oh god, how can such a gay guy be straight? If you knew him you’d see! The worst is, he talks to me about his girl trouble. Dammit!
But I can’t help but feel its payback for all of us girls pining over fantastic gay guys. So while I do feel the pain of love unreturned, can I have his number?
Sorry, sorry…stressed out in PA…please excuse the bitchyness…
Oh, I’m so sorry. If movies have taught me anything, it’s don’t fall in love with people with sexual preferences differing from what you are, and every starship has a weak point.
Maybe you could combine this movie knowledge… But don’t kill him, he’s not a starship. That would not be good.
Hmm, as for what movies have tought me tonight: When things are recorded on video tape in the vicinity of a witch, the tape and your memory of the events do not match. There is no way of knowing which is correct.
If you can’t tell from that, I just watched the phenomenally bad “Blair Witch 2”. I couldn’t bring myself to watch it backwards to see the “Secret Of Esrever”. Anyone already know what it is? Tell me.
What? This thread is about loving a straight person? Oh, shit! Back on topic! Umm, he’s like straight, and cool, and I want to smother him with love and go skipping about the local mall with him, both of us wearing big pink triangles on our shirts. Yeah. That’s it.
MarxBoy, I feel for you. I’ve been there, and done that, and in fact done my straight friend, and regretted it. A lot.
My advice would be to enjoy being around him, revel in being friends with such a magnificent guy, and know that it’s not your fault, or his, that he can’t love you like you can love him. Nothing but intrusive biology again…
But whatever you do, don’t sleep with him. I lost one of my best friends ever that way. IMHO, the sex, however good, is not worth the heartache.
You can, however, love him like a friend. Which is pretty damned good in and of itself.
He’s just in the closet.
I’ve never met a gay acting straight guy who didn’t eventually come out of the closet.
Well, there’s Chad, who last I heard from was engaged to Annie, but considering the kind of porn his roommate found on his computer, and the time that he gave out his number to a guy at the container store who was obviously hitting on him, that relationship might have a few things to work out.
Anyway, talk to him about the girl-problems. Maybe you can convince him they’re not worth it :). Then you’d get the guy, and there’d be another single girl around, which is good for the rest of us guys.
Could you tell what you mean by that? I’m a straight guy but some of my gay friends have called the gayest straight guy they know. (I’m not argueing the title) But what makes your guy gay? As for me I am gay because I like old movie musicals and remember the songs and sing them occasionally. How is liking Judy Garland gay? She is totally hot man! Oh and I took that test at the Spark.com where they are supposed to tell if you are a man or a woman and they were 80% sure I was a woman.
IANAGM (gay man), but isn’t this fraught with peril? Even if the guy comes out, it seems like the person he talks to about this in the early stages becomes a kind of mentor, not a lover. You could wind up right back where you started.
You could just try some cheap wine and Al Green … always works on me.
How is my Elliot gay? Well, there’s the obvious involvement in theater all the time, and he wrote a song to Ophelia, from Hamlet. He is ultra-feminine, and he is really into free-form dance, etc.
I know not to get too involved with him. This happened to me before, with a straight friend that wasn’t even slightly gay. I basically pressured him into trying, and the friendship dissolved. I am an asshole, I know. For the record, I didn’t like rape him, I just gave him head.
I’m gonna put the Ophelia song on my website, it should be up there within 10 minutes or so. Listen to that song, and then tell me you wouldn’t guess that the guy is gay.
