Today, my gay best friend slept over, as he has many times during the past three years of our friendship. This time, however, he confessed to me that he's only pretended to be gay to get closer to me because he's in love with me. I've allowed my stalker to sleep in my house and in my bed for three years.

Today, at a party, I watched the guy I've liked for AGES come out of a bedroom with one of my gay male friends. They were in there for a while. FML

Today, I was at a friend's house; she left the room for a few minutes. Her dad then put me in a headlock and told me that I'd, "better treat his daughter right if I ever wanted to walk again," because she's in love with me. I'm a gay guy, and she knows. FML

Today, a "friend" of mine told everyone that I had a crush on a girl I used to be really good friends with 2 years ago. I never liked her that way, and had said that only to hide the fact that I'm gay and don't feel safe with boys. Her current boyfriend is seriously annoyed with me. FML

Today, I was at a party. The girl I'm madly in love with referred to me as her 'Gay Friend.' She refused to kiss me in Spin-the-Bottle as 'She didn't want to do anything with anyone that night'. She then made out, and slept with, my 'best friend' whom she had never met before. FML

Today, while at my friend's house, she had to leave the room for a few minutes. Her dad then put me in a headlock and told me that I had "better treat his daughter right if I ever wanted to walk again," because she's in love with me. Then he left. I'm a gay guy. FML

Today, I found out that my son has been telling me he's gay so we would allow the "female friend" who is actually his girlfriend to stay over. FML

Today, my best friend, the man who I've been in love with for nine years, finally told me he loves me and wants to spend the rest of his life with me. Unfortunately, it was while he was using me to practice proposing to his girlfriend. FML

Today, it was my best friend's wedding. The night ended with her in tears outside her hotel suite, where she confessed that she has a serious crush on me. I have a serious crush on her too. We're both straight women. I'm really confused. FML

1. Gay or not, why was he in your bed? 2. That's some strange restraint if he's in love with you and you two have been in bed with each other for years and never tried anything.

Did he pretend to be gay or maybe he has realized he is bisexual? If he pretended to be gay to everyone for you there is a serious problem. Overall the lie is weird,I think most straight guys wouldn't want the person they like to think they are gay.

Sounds like a Rom Com that went horribly wrong.

I'm guessing the people who are saying they'd never let a friend sleep in their bed are kids/minors. It's extremely common to crash in a friend's bed if you're hanging out and get too drunk to go home and let your friends do the same, male or female. I'm guessing OP's issue with it was less there was a man in her bed, and more that it was a man who was attracted to her and lied. The fact was his intent was sexual/romantic, not friendship, and that's a damn creepy way to go about it.

I am 29.... I've crashed on a couch or in a spare room, and even on the floor with a spare blanket. My friends have done likewise. IN the same bed with someone seems like asking for trouble.

It hardly makes him a stalker since you invited him in, repeatedly. As for the rest of it - it's wrong to lie to someone and manipulate them into getting close with you and this was a bad move on his part. BUT you said he was your best friend so you obviously get on with him really well - that doesn't have to translate into attraction though. Strange situation.

That's not a stalker. I have a stalker, restraining order approved. When he tries to break into your house numerous times, threatens to kill you, sends to 200+ text messages in one day, and makes you afraid to go outside your house without a gun, then you've got a stalker. This is just a guy who lied because he wanted to be your friend.
