Thanks, but no thanks

Today, I held the door for an elderly woman. As she walked through, she looked at me and told me I was a very handsome man and that I should meet her grandson. The woman was my grandmother, and yes, I'm straight. FML

That's actually incredibly sweet. She called you handsome and was scouting out a partner for you.

Well sometimes you just have to take things that old people say with a grain of salt. She is probably just old and senile.

I definitely agree with Setareh23. Having your grandma think you're gay isn't an FML, having her forget who you are absolutely is.

What does it matter that you're straight? It seems more like she just wanted to introduce you to her 'grandson' rather than hook you up.

Look on the bright side atleast she called you handsome.

Well it looks like her grandson is the door man...so the fact here is you don't need to worry about it...either way if you have a brother we all know he is for sure not interested....

So, she's trying to hook you up with... You?

As people get older they start to forget things, take it as a compliment.

She called you handsome, that's a compliment. As for thinking your gay, well, that's not a bad thing, because there's nothing wrong with gayness. I'm guessing she's having memory loss problems, that part definitely sucks. My grandma died before having those issues, so I don't know what its like personally, but I know it must be terrible :(
