Today, I realised that my closeted gay friend has dated more women this year than I have in my 28 years of life. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Same thing different taste
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
The long game
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. FML
Today, after being out of the closet for over three years, I learned that some of my friends still don't believe me that I am really a lesbian. They still think I made the whole thing up because I can't get a man. FML
Today, I found out that my friends were convinced that I was gay. I have known most of them for 3 plus years, they all thought my girlfriend was a special shopping partner. I found this out while announcing my engagement. FML
Today, I found that my "lesbian" best friend and roommate is now dating the guy I've been trying to get a date with for weeks. FML
Mask off
Today, I found out that the guy I've been dating for a year is and always has been gay. I was apparently "an amazingly convenient beard" for his ultra-religious family. FML
Today, a stranger told me how proud he was that my boyfriend and I were so open with our sexuality. For the past three years, most strangers have thought we're a pair of gay men. I'm a woman. FML
Today, I found out the girl I've been trying to date for six months is gay. FML
Look at me
Today, I realized that my gay male friend tells me I’m pretty, gives me random compliments, and shows me off more often than my husband of 10 years. I legitimately can’t remember the last time my husband called me beautiful. Even if I ask him how I look, the best I’ll get is “You look fine.” FML
Ally
Today, I finished the run for a play in which I played a gay man. Now that all the performances are over, I have kissed a man more times in my life than I have kissed a woman. I'm straight. FML

If he's gay is it fair that he is dating women giving them a false hope of a relationship?

To all the people who think his gay friend is a man, think about it. Gay is not strictly a term for men. If his gay friend dated more women than him, it is obviously a female friend.

To all the people who think his gay friend is a woman, read the frigging FML. It says right there that the friend is closeted. If it were a gay woman dating lots of girls, she wouldn't be closeted, she'd be openly gay. And it wouldn't be an FML for OP to have dated less girls than another person who is into girls. The FML is that even a gay guy, who is not into girls, has dated more girls than OP.

Sounds like he has it worse

Maybe you should ask for pointers.

if you think about it, trays not that bad. If your gay friend dated 2 females, he still dated more girls than a happily married man who has been married for 28+ years. but if you haven't had any girls in the past 28 years, then you might be doing something wrong, or aren't pursuing women enough.

it's not as bad as you think, I mean, gay guys do have a tendency to be more appealing to the ladies.

Not really. I mean, it depends on the guy. Some, who are effeminate, may become fast friends with girls because they have the same interests. Some, who are more masculine, may be appealing to girls because of the forbidden fruit syndrome. And there are also some socially awkward gay guys who don't really appeal to anyone at first, because they don't know how to communicate. Gay guys are people, just like everyone else. Being gay doesn't make a man instantly charming/well-dressed/musical lover.

Context is relevant. How long do both of your relations last? He might burn through women like tissue paper. You might love them.
