So, I've been wondering. . .how many of you guys could handle having a gay best friend? Feel free to post as to why or why not that situation would work for you.


I would be totally comfortable with it myself. I already have many gay friends and they're all cool people. They understand the difference between us being friends and us being something more. If they were to develop feelings for me, they know they'd be able to say something and I'd be ok with it and we could work it out.

I'm a girl, and one of my close was bisexual. I was completely fine with it. I think that having someone so close to me be bi opened my mind to homosexuality.

There's nothing wrong with it at all. So yes I could handle it.

Yeah, aint nothing wrong with that. Found out one of my best friends used to be bisexual with a tendency to go for the guy side, though he's since changed his orientation towards women.

^
so, he turned straight? what? lol.

if he were gay he wouldn't be my friend

lurk moar plz

I think that I could handle it unless he/she started hitting on me @_@

I'm a girl, I have a gay friend. He has alot of friends, I don't think they mind it.

I guess i could handle it until he starts getting all physical and stuff.

Yeah i'd be fine aslong as he did things i was not comfortable with. Pretty much anythng homo.

There aren't really any actions that can be deemed homosexual. We have our stereotypical image of how a gay person should act, but that's not always the case.

probably as long as i knew they wern't interested in me

Well, yes. I mean, assuming that he or she was also a pleasant person, of course.

I think I have more straight guys who do stereotypical gay tendencies more then the 2 actual gay guys I'm friends with. It makes me wonder about my straight friends who do that. I wouldn't really mind if I had my 2 gay friends interested in me. Aslong as they knew I was straight and they don't do anything I'm uncomfortable with.

Yeah I agree..but one thing bothers me is that some people I have came across always makesure that other's know they are gay/lesbian/bi.. and it is a huge let down cause they're not distiguishing their personality but instead their sexuality towards random people... I dunno if that makes sense?

my best friend is Gay....and I love him to death, and the thing is... I didn't really know until he told me, even though I was suspicious that he was....but I have no problem with it.

Gay guys are pretty good wingmen.

The sexuality of my friends doesn't really affect how close i become to them. However, I do understand how it would be awkward if my best friend was gay and liked me, or if my best friend was a girl and she had began to develop different types of emotions for me.

Well I wouldn't have a problem with it. Most of my friends already have a suspicion cuz of my effeminate tendencies, but i dont think they'd really care if I was until I just randomly made advances on them. But frankly, I wouldn't care: I have several friends who are open lesbians/bis.

when did gay people are generally more active than straight in this forum.

where are the straight guys just ... like me? Lol.

LMAO, cause they are hiding in the other threads.

yeahhh!! having gay best friends are freakin awesome!!

probably.. but if they started hitting on me,
i'd probably start walking away from them..
that would be really weird, and make me feel
really incomfortable.. sorry

I have a lot of friends that are gay. I actually had one of my friends come out of the closet, recently. It was fun. :]

Does it really matter, as long as they were the same person?

if my friend turned gay i'd take him out back beat the shit outta him. jk i guess it'd depend if he was attracted to me or not, could be really awkward.

ahaha you guys are strange
homos are weird
go read a bible or something

im a girl. if i had a gay guy best friend i would love it =] im not quite sure about a gay girl best friend. i know i could deal with it but it would be awkward.
how many people would say no cuz of religon? i know my friend would. when i ask her, she says something about her religon and just sshrugs it off. she says its WRONG. and then i stare at her in awe and wonder how it could be wrong. i understand you want to follow your religon, but dont let it be a barrier between what your (in a way) forced to believe and what you believe that does nbot involve religon. infact, i think religon is just an excuse for some people to say what they really mean.

I wouldn't care if he was gay or not, We'd still be best friends...

I don't care whether they are gay or not. But just recently I had a friend that I met last school year in gym class. We were friends and stuff, then torwards the end of the year he came out to me and one other person. He started hitting on me and rubbing my leg so I was like yeah stop it.

I think it's depressing that this even has to be a debate. If you have a problem with it, shoot yourself and save me the ammo.

^How awfully mean!

As long as they didnt try anything with me I'd be fine with it.

Oh please tell me your kidding D: Your too cute to be a complete bastard.

gay guys are cool.

and they arn't like

girls. they might think

your cute, but if they

know your straight they

won't try to get with you.

girls are different, at least

to me. they try to break me

and my girlfriend up, and they

try to be so skanky, it pisses

me off cause they try way to hard.

yeah gay guys know what looks good

and they are great to shop with.

they also know when girls are atractive

or not. just becuase they are gay

doesn't mean that they can't see

a cute/attractive girl, now they

don't call them hott cause, well to

the guy that i am talking about, he

just can't say that becuase he doesn't

see girls as hott.

As long as I dont wake up the next morning with soring ass.

what the phuc

Wow it's like a poem.

Ya, totally.
i'm not that shallow of a friend to turn my back on someone because of their sexual orrientation.
I mean c'mon they are still my friend.

Well, I have a best friend who I've known for 9 years. A year or 2 ago, I found out that he was Bi. But he seems to be more into guys. I'm okay with that and he's my best friend for so long.

I think it's just dumb to break a friendship just because someone is gay or whatever. I wouldn't do it, espicially I knew him for a very long time & it's shallow.

However, I do wonder that I have straight friends and they act like homo's at times then my bi best friend. lol. I love my best friend (not in a homo way) and he's really cool to kick it with for the past 9 years & continuing.

Yes, totally. I support homosexuality. There's nothing wrong with it :]
In fact, I would love having a gay friend. Someone different, ya know?
Even if he starting hitting on me.

(...I'm bi.)

Amen!

i found it kewl if i had a friend who is gay or a bi.

Yeah, one of my best friend's is gay, he likes me too, but it's all good.

theyre just like regular friends. well, girls. the guys are "funner" to be around!

those of you that are saying that you'd be fine with it UNLESS they tried something with you is a paradox.

if that bothers you than you'd wouldn't be COMPLETELY fine with it...



& yes, of ocurse, i would love to have a gay best friend...besides myself. it's just that all the ones at my school are so nasty!

Lol, they keep trying to get in your pants? CREEPS!

all you'd have to say it "no".

then if they keep doing, than that's just rude.

^ Or pathetic.

^ Haha. OMGOSh. I would soo love videotaping one of my homosexual friends trying to hit on one of my straight guy friends. haha
