Today, for the first time, I told my girlfriend of two months that I love her. She broke down in laughter and mockingly asked, "What are you, some kind of queer?" I could've sworn she was mentally older than a 5-year-old when I asked her out. I guess not. FML

Dodge a bullet and don't let it go on for more than 2 months OP, end it now for your benefit.

Dump her, queerphobes aren't worth your time. Even if you're cishet yourself, they aren't worth your time. (Also, someone who shames you for having and expressing emotions is also not worth your time.)

is it just me or should "i love you" come BEFORE "will you be my gf/bf", relationships are meant for people who are already in love, not for people who think they might fall in love

That sounds awfully stalkerish to me... " I've been in love with you for 3 years, be my girlfriend!". I'd be terrified, personally speaking.

It's just you, personally I'd find it rather awkward if someone I'd just started dating told me they love me O.O

This is so stupid. MARRIAGE is for people who are already in love. You date someone to fall in love with them.

the state of society is worse than i thought, friendship should always come before dating, 2 people should share friendship, and mutually fall in love with eachother before they start dating, dating is not a casual test, its the first step in a commited long term relationship

118 thank god you're here to bestow your wisdom on the misguided masses of society! But for real, get off your high horse. If that's how you run your life, good for you, but we aren't all the same as you. And that doesn't make you superior to anyone. Get over yourself

you don't mutually fall in love then date. you start to like the person in more than just a friendship way(sorry I know it sounds primary school) and then date and maybe fall in love maybe not. you can only really find out how you feel by being in a relationship and finding out how you work together in a not friend way. what if you fell in love started to date and found out you couldn't stand the person in a relationship

It depends on the Culture and the Individual. In my country there is no real dating culture. Sure you go out with your beloved or like and get to know each other but its way less strict than it seems to be like it is in other countries. I would never call someone a Girlfriend or in relationship without having said the words and having had sex. stuff before that is just getting to know each other and testing out if you fall i love and if you want/can handle a relationship with that person.

Feel bad for the OP. It's become common with the younger generation where actually saying you love someone or anything romantic is gay or queer. Don't worry about it too much. Two months is pretty short relationship wise and it was probably too soon.

I hope you have checked but are you sure she does not have a ****?

Take this advice from a female -leave her for someone who will appreciate your sensitivity. She's only gonna end up hurting your feelings more. She's not right for you if that was her reaction.

Two months? What, did you think that would get her to put out?

as horrible as her reaction was, 2 months is a bit soon to be popping those 3 words I think. it's likely just heavy infatuation, be thankful you found out she was a bitch now and not in a year or something though I guess.

Maybe she's like I am & uses humor to ease her way through an emotional moment to protect herself from pain later...

after two months? come on, that's ridiculous.

I wouldn't dismiss her diss altogether. You're 13-years-old, right? :P
