Is it a matter of showing respect or do they think I'm gay?

Or maybe they think you look better than they do,or that they happen to think right then, that they're losing their pants.

That sounds really weird.  It sounds like she's either asking you if you're gay (or bi) or maybe even suggesting it.  I personally would question why either of you take something like that seriously.  Why would you get embarrassed (getting annoyed I can understand, but why embarrassed).  As for her why would she take offense?  \n\nMy guess is she is trying to ask you if you're gay. Are you? Answer for yourself, then deal with her on it. Tell her the truth, whatever that is, and dont worry or be embarressed.  After all either you are or not. There's no point in making it more complicated than that.\n\nOn the other hand what about your girlfriend?  Is it possible she is having gay or bi thoughts herself? You should ask her what exactly is going on.

wait a second, i think i am confused or u are either using horribly bad puns. if you are implying that you are straight and u know this gay guy who wants to give you anal sex then you should be flattered yet offended because that is still sexual harrassment whether gay or not. u couldnt say that to a woman right. and by the way i'm gay so gay guys dont get mad at my answer.

you shouldnt let others opinions get in the way of your true self. you wanting to show respect shouldnt be frowned upon. it should be applauded. most men are dogs!!!! and men like you are a rare find. so consider yourself a precious jewel in the female eye. brush the haters off and move on and continue to stay true to yourself..

hey if she is gay then tell her but i mean if you are gay and someone was TRYING to make you like guys , do you think that is rights , do not force people to what you want , come on , all that you will get is to make someone give into hate , and become a homophobic because you try to force her , Do you think that is what the world needs ,\nRESPECT WHAT SHE TOLD YOU , DO NOT make assumptions just because you want them to be real ,all that you will gain is someone hating you , is that what you want  COME ON GAY PEOPLE ARE BETTER THAN THAT \nTHINK WHAT YOU ARE SAYING IF IT WAS POSSIBLE TO CHANGE SOMEONE WHY ARE YOU WITH A GUY  THEN

I can't claim to know anything about your problem, I'm a straight female.  But it just broke my heart to read your question.  This must be so difficult for you.  I don't know what to tell you to do, maybe you should try to wait for the right person to come along before you say anything, at least then you would have some kind of support.  I can't speak for your parents, of course, but if my child came to me and told me he's gay, I would be loving and supportive, a parent always loves their children, no matter what, at least that's the way I feel about my child.  I just wanted you to know I feel for you and wish you the best! :)

The best thing to do is to steer the questions ever so subtly to the gay without saying it. If he knows you're gay then it'll be a little trickier, but if not just say compliment a guy and see if he agrees... Worked for me in high school... it's just so much harder cause so many guys have "gay" mannerisms and gays usually play the "straight" (if there is such a thing)...

I don't know...I am not freaked out about this sort of thing. and if someone thinks I am using them myself then they are idiots.\n\nand I am not freaked out when you discuss your periods because I know what it is and I don't find it disturbing.\n\nand if you think I am gay for saying something like this then remember this, say what you want, it doesn't mean it is true (only put this last part in because some idiots I go to school with think I am gay even though I am not simply because I listen to women's problems)

I say that you should try to treat everyone the same way that you would want to be treated yourself. It should not matter what any ones sexual orientation is. I happen to be gay myself and most people treat me with kindness and respect.

It is ok to be proud of what you are.  Some people may not agree with your lifestyle, and that is fine because they do not have to live you life.  I mean if you like PDA, do it, if you are a more private person be that way.  We can not control who we like and you can not turn you feeling on and off like a light switch.  Be you and be happy to be you!  And most important DONT LET OTHERS DICTATE YOUR LIFE!

Talking it over with close friends.  Eventually, a person accepts his or her sexual orientation, self-identifies with others like that, and notes who (or what) he or she is to a close friend.  I think the fact that this one longterm friend had actually come out to me some months beforehand also helped. It's a safety issue, I think. It was like a weight being lifted from my shoulders when I came out to him and said, "this" is what am.  It also answered questions regarding stress throughout my life.

no you are not gay. there will always be times like this when you will be confused  by friendship over attraction. just let it go.
