My new gay roommate thinks I’m gay, which I’m not, but I feel like every interaction I have with him reinforces his belief

quote:

I moved in with a couple guys I met online a few weeks ago. One mentioned his sexuality during the first meeting, to which my awkward rear end replied “oh yeah, totally cool with that”. Later on we were making small talk about relationship patterns, and him, clearly prying, referenced my “girlfriend”. I don’t have a partner right now, which is what I told him. I used the word partner, specifically.

Already feeling self-conscious about this, I made it a point to bring up a girl I dated the next time we saw each other. I just didn’t want to send him the wrong message, I felt like I already had.

So I told the story about that ex-girlfriend, and almost immediately afterwards went on a long rant about my love for interior design. I know, stereotypes aren’t good, but allow me to further paint the image he’s seeing.

I dress eccentrically. I’ve been told my mannerisms are flamboyant. I sometimes wear eyeliner. I am frequently assumed to be gay for whatever reason, which is understandable, but never anything I’ve had to problem-solve. I just tell people I’m not, if they ask, and that’s it.

But with this guy, he hasn’t asked. He’s skeptical. And I feel like every interaction so far is painting this picture that I’m closeted or embarrassed. You may think I’m reading too much into it, but this post isn’t over yet.

I overheard him and our other, also gay roommate discussing this topic. My sexuality, how they’re not sure what I am. How I’m giving off closeted vibes. This happened at night behind closed doors so I didn’t feel comfortable interjecting, but it confirmed my worry.

The next day I was watching “Don’t F*ck With Cats” when he walked in, during a scene which was literally just shots of a male escort website and no dialogue. He was like “male escorts! wow!” and I said, immediately feeling like I need to backpedal, “Oh it’s a true crime show! True crime!”. He laughed and left the room before the scene changed from the panel of shirtless men.

I invited over a friend I’d recently broken things off with. We’d been casually sleeping together, and I’d decided to end it because we weren’t compatible sexually. She’s a bit hurt by that but we’re still making an effort to be friends. The roommate picked up on the tension between us and asked, so I explained in the absolute worst way possible how I’m “not interested in sex right now”, how it makes me go “ew”. How I’m taking a break from it and I’ll “re-explore my sexuality after college” (in my mind referencing asexuality which is something I’ve started to identify with).

Which is all true. But... jesus, if I were him I’d also think “that’s a closeted gay/bi guy”. And I feel like at this point if I abruptly brought up how not gay I am in conversation, it would just keep adding to that narrative.

These have just been the standout incidents. I haven’t mentioned how I keep on using the ambiguous word “partner” to reference my big 5 year ex, who has come up a couple times. And few other awkward situations. It’s like when you hyperfocus on something bad happening, and it becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy.

Why do I care? I would just love to have roommates who I’m open and honest with, who believe me when I’m open and honest with them. This situation will probably resolve itself with time, but I wonder if anyone has some advice? Should I say something? Should I just accept it and be gay now? Let me know what you think

You're imagining it being a text like "we took the puppy to the vet" or "I got a promotion" when it could just as easily be 20 FWDFWDFWD meme texts a day. The fact that it's "show a text" and not "talk about a text" indicates is likely the latter.

They should probably break up though, since it sounds like the only thing that was keeping them together was hours long conversations about Star Wars minutia and he's no longer interested even in that.

My(30m) Gf (late 20's Gf) just told me she was bipolar

quote:

Tl,Dr new Gf is bipolar and I don't want a bipolar Gf again

I feel like I'm complaining but I'm not sure if I should stay in this relationship. She seems happy with me but I just am not happy. I can fake it, but my last relationship before this was abusive to the point where I got into a fight with my mom ( who is like a best friend to me) about it. My ex was bipolar and very manipulative and I changed a lot.

I sold off most of my possessions and only having been in one serious relationship beforehand kinda messed me up. So I'm not sure if I should stay and see how it turns out or tell her I can't and just not date. I've tried to talk my self on another site and just got flamed about it so I figured I'd make an account and if anything. I'll just live with it.

I [28 M] have gained weight since meeting my girlfriend [30 F]. Recently she confided in me that she actually likes it and wants me to gain more.

My girlfriend and I started dating about a year and a half ago. Throughout our relationship, she has cooked a lot for me (pasta with various sauces, etc.), and she usually brings me seconds and dessert without me having to ask. I always just assumed this was how she showed her love.

As a result of her great food and constant encouragement to eat, I put on 38 pounds from summer 2018 to October 2019 (I'm 6'0", so that's not as much as it sounds like). Then I got a terrible cold just before Halloween and ended up unintentionally losing about 10 pounds (haven't weighed myself to see exactly how much). The other day I was joking about it and said, "My pants fit better than they did in the fall. I bet you're happy about that." She said, "Actually..." and eventually admitted that she thought I "look really hot with a bigger belly." I asked if she was serious, and she said that she was and even confided that she fantasizes about what I'd look like with an extra 50 pounds. She asked if that's something I'd ever considered doing for her, and I told her I needed a few days to think about it.

My initial reaction was shock because she's tiny (5'2" and barely 100 pounds), so I never expected her to be into something like this, but after thinking it over, am I crazy to actually be considering it? She's been noticeably more into sex since I've gained weight, and when we lay down to go to sleep, she now asks to be the big spoon 90% of the time, which I now realize is because she likes rubbing my belly as we fall asleep. To be blunt, I like the extra sex and affection, and I wouldn't really mind gaining more weight to make her happy. The only thing holding me back are the potential health consequences, but I could always try to gain the weight she wants me to gain and just lose it if it starts to affect my health. I love this woman, and we're compatible on so many levels that I could see us getting married a couple of years down the line, so part of me feels like this isn't too much to ask of me if it would really mean a lot to her. It's kind of a win/win anyway since I'd get to eat whatever I want. I have no one to whom to talk about this in real life because it's obviously a private matter, so I figured I'd ask here.

Editing this in because I forgot to add it earlier. I guess another potential downside is if I gain 50 more pounds and we eventually break up for whatever reason, then would it be harder for me to meet someone else? She reassured me that wouldn't be an issue because: 1) she doesn't see any reason why we'd break up and 2) even if we did, she claims that a lot of women prefer bigger men but just won't admit it. I'm not sure if that last one is true or not.

tl;dr: I got kind of fat since meeting my girlfriend. She's actually been doing it on purpose and wants me to get fatter because she thinks it's sexy. Should I do it?

Took a quick look at Fight Man's profile.

I got beat up by a girl today.

quote:

So basically today I was walking through the Target parking lot and this teen girl almost hit me. I accidentally walked out in front of her and she had time to stop but was texting on her phone. The car came like two inches from me. I punched the hood. She screamed out her window that I better watch where I’m going. I then gave her the finger and she hopped out.

She gave me the finger and put her hand like two inches from my face while screaming. I grabbed her wrist hard and then she kicked me in the nuts. I grabbed onto her leg as I fell over and brought her down too. She then got on top of me and started hitting me. I tried to stand up and she put me into a rear naked choke and started yelling for help. A bunch of people ran over and I quickly stood up and started running.

I got into a fist fight today over Trump.

quote:

I was walking down the street this morning and there was some people talking to eachother next to me and they were talking about how trump shouldn’t be impeached and all this nonsense. I said too bad he already is and it’s gonna go through senate too. They told me to gently caress off and get out of their conversation. I was instantly angry. I tackled the smaller one of them onto the ground and went to punch him. And the bigger guy ripped me off and slammed me into the ground. I grabbed his foot and yanked him down with me. I got on top of him and then the other guy tackled me off him. I then punched him and he staggered and then I kicked him in the nuts.

The smaller one was on the ground and then I took a punch from the bigger guy and fell over. I tried to get up but he got on top of me and punched me more times. The other guy ran up and pulled him off and told him they just had to walk away. They started to walk away and I quickly stood up and ran up and pushed one on the ground and punched the other. He quickly grabbed me and slammed me into the wall by my throat. I punched him in the face and he staggered back. They both grabbed me and took me to the ground. They started punching me. Finally someone came around the corner and yelled and they took off and so did I.

It’s crazy that we live in a world where this has to be how things are.

But also, he's way into seizing the means of production.

Rich people should not exist.

quote:

No one in the world needs to have over 5 million dollars. There’s no need. It should be immediately taken from them by the government and put to use in way better ways. Everything in the USA would be way better if this is the route that we took. I’m a pretty well off guy with money and even sometimes I think I have too much. But I’m trying to make more and more as time goes. But even if I got over 5 million I would be perfectly fine with giving the rest up.
