Today, the guy I’ve been hanging out with and crushing on told me we now know each other well enough to be completely open with each other. I was excited, thinking our mild flirtations would finally go further. He just wanted me to know he’s gay, and asked me if I knew any single guys for him. FML

At least he's stayed with you while people are saying that! Most guy would've left for that reason! You're lucky.

The same thing happens with me and my boyfriend because I have short hair. When I'm wearing a dress people think we're lesbians.
