It's a trap.

Wait, is anyone who says the OP should date him anyway thinking that maybe the 'guy' he accidentally liked... isn't gay?

Ahhhhh dude, that blows How did you not know it was a boy! Haven't you been in within a 5 mile radius of them?

man that sucks well at least you know now instead of finding out in bed

emo??? cuz i like someone (too bad hes famous lol) but yeah ppl think hes a girl all the time lol so i can see why u thought it was a girl.... im soo sorry for the situation but its funny idk tlak to the person even if ur not gay u dont have to like them but yeah idk

*a girl* i mean sorry

#32: Oh yeah, if they don't want to go out with someone, it *must* be because they're transphobic. It's not any kind of phobia or bigotry to no be interested in someone with a dick. It's just a preference.

#61, Bill from Tokio Hotel may have some androgynous features, but I think you can tell he's a guy. And, dude, seriously! 8 months is a long time. Don't you think you would have talked to her/him before you asked her/him out?

I agree with #6, #12 and #28... assuming of course you wouldn't mind dating someone with male parts or experimenting. And assuming, of course, s/he would be interested in dating you. I mean, obviously SOMETHING attracted you to hir in the first place... And if s/he is transitioning from male to female, then s/he would be a girl anyhow, so no harm there. But even if it doesn't apply to this person, it is something to keep in mind for the future. And for everyone saying "it's a trap" or "tranny, gross"... Grow up. Someone choosing to dress like they want or presenting themselves in a way outside of the "gender boxes" society sets up for us is not a trap, and being transsexual isn't gross. Good lord. But I agree with everyone else that you should have talked to hir already in those eight months. I was terrified to talk to my love interest, but I still talked to him within a month or so of meeting him. :P Eight months is a really long time, so you sort of did bring it on yourself. Not the end of the world though, right?

Thank you #6, #28, #29, #81 for your Trans-friendly posts. :-) To the OP- That sucks man, its always crappy to have hopes and expectations dashed. You'll b e fine though, bro. Head up!
