(Note: I’m a female customer sitting in a pub. I’m approached by another male customer while I read a book.)
Male customer: “Hello, my name is ***.”Me: “That’s nice.”
Male customer: “So can I have your number?”
Me: “Oh. Actually, I’m gay.”
Male customer: “You want to have sex with women?”
Me: “Well, not right now. Right now, I just want to read my book.”
Male customer: “That’s bulls***! If you’re a lesbian then you want to have sex with women!”
Me: “Honestly, I just want to read my book.”
Male customer: “You’re lying to me, that’s very rude! I’m going to complain!”
Male customer, to a waitress: “That girl over there is being really rude. I want you to do something, it’s disturbing my day. She just lied to me and told me that she was a lesbian, and now she’s mocking me.”
Waitress: “What am I supposed to do about that? Make her straight?”
Male customer: “Just do something about it!”
Waitress, to me: “Hello, there.”
Me: “Hello. I’m sorry about him.”
Waitress: “Oh, it’s no problem! So, can I have your number?”
Male customer: *looks horrified*
Me: “Er, yeah, sure. Here.”
(I write my number on a napkin and she takes it, still smiling.)
Waitress, to male customer: “See? She’s a lesbian.”
Male customer: “That’s not what I wanted you to do! I didn’t want you to ask her out, I wanted you to make her leave! I demand to speak to your manager!”
Waitress: “Oh, he’s just popped out. I can get his boyfriend for you though if you want?”
Male customer: *storms out cursing*
(It turned out that the waitress was kidding about her manager, but she wasn’t kidding about asking me out!)

“the customer isn’t always right” stories are some of my favorite stories ever
AnonymousThere are clubs in West Hollywood, 340 club in Pomona. Online dating. Umm if you’re in college, there are Gay-Straight Alliances in most schools (usually called GSA, QSA, or LAMBDA). Also there are Gay Prides coming up! Long Beach = May 18-19, LA = June 7-9.
As for making yourself approachable…honestly girls are hella complicated. My best advice on that is to just be yourself and do the things you love, and you’ll one day meet someone. Be open to different activities also, you never know what kinds of awesome friends you might meet. And the shyness…well it’s hard to be approachable with the shyness but if you want to overcome it, you probably can :)
Oh and come off anon! Let’s be friends! :)
you have to either do it on the internet or get referred.
hahaha why is this so true
double standards disgust me. when a guy sleeps with a ton of women he’s a stud but when a girl sleeps with a ton of women she’s a lesbian
That was not the way I expected that sentence to end.
Oh no actually…some girls that sleep with a ton of women are also called studs….lol…
MY MOM SAID IF THIS GETS 500,000 NOTES SHE WILL FINALLY CALL ME “KHYLE” AND REFER TO ME AS HER SON PLEASE THIS IS A HUGE STEP FOR ME AND HER
This is still important, right guys? I think so.
This isn’t just a fluffy chicken thing…..,someone wants their mother to accept them……this is fuking hugeguys c’mon how does this not have more notes?! LETS MAKE THIS HAPPEN
It’s becoming increasingly clear to me that, though I didn’t think about this at the time, I probably started a blog because I need somewhere to vent my boundless rage that is not random people’s Facebook walls. I mean, one thing among the many thousands of things that are…
Will leave this here for further reflection
