    Normal straight dude here. I’ve been hit on by a gay guy before. I explained the situation like an adult. All was good, no willies of any kind were had.

      No “hey let’s split rent and I’ll get you all these free drugs” before eventually they come out with their expectations? Congrats. You don’t wanna be there. You especially don’t wanna share a jail cell with a dude who got himself moved in because you helped him with a phone call once and eventually he scratches the hell out of your glasses while you’re in the shower because you turned him down.

      Sorry for the run on sentences. I’m typing in the bathroom at work.

        You bartered for drugs and were then surprised that this individual wasn’t completely honest?

          I’m much better now, but I see a big crowd here invalidating others experiences because they think it’s the right thing. I can’t be silent about it.

              No. I’m just saying that homophobes aren’t necessarily homophobes because they’re bigoted. Plenty of them are that way because they’ve had a bad experience, or at least I was for a while. I’m good now, but my general approach with people is different and I get pretty triggered about people on the Internet who throw shit instead of trying to push for understanding. Nobody is going to achieve peace by attacking.

          Yeah, but I’ve written off all personal relationships/sex and I make that very clear to everyone I have any involvement with. I won’t give creeps a leg to stand on.
