Today, the kid next to me asked me, in all seriousness, if gay people have feelings like regular people. I'm gay, and I have to sit next to this barnacle until June. FML

Today, a coworker was telling me he was lonely and needed someone special in his life. I replied, "Why don't you find yourself a girlfriend?" He looked at me weird and said, "I'm gay." FML
Today, I learned that the girl I love thinks I'm gay. To be honest, I'm having doubts too. FML
Today, after three weeks of putting it off, I decided to ask out the girl I've had a major crush on since third grade. When I told her, she smiled, but then quickly said, "But aren't you gay?" FML
Today, I found out that my entire school differentiates me from another girl in my grade with the same name by saying, "No, she's the lesbian one." I'm straight. FML
Today, my sister gently asked me if I was gay. Turns out I've been without a boyfriend for so long that the whole family believes I secretly have a girlfriend. FML
Today, I talked to a girl I like. I tried to make her jealous by telling her I had a "thing" going with another girl. She looked deeply into my eyes and said, "Wait, aren't you gay?" FML
Today, my daughter was telling everyone at her elementry school about my gay partner. Yes, I have a gay partner. He is my work partner and he happens to be gay. FML
Today, I found out the reason my crush has been talking so openly to me. Not because she likes me back, but because she thinks I'm gay. FML
Today, I learned why a guy at work hates me when he drunkenly confessed it at a work retreat. Apparently I look like a gay teenager he had a horrible awkward one-night stand with, and every time he sees me he gets mad at himself. I could have gone my whole life without knowing that. FML
Today, while I was babysitting my nephews, the 7 year old boy walked up to me and asked if I was a lesbian. I laughed it off. An argument ensued about my sexuality for a good two hours. I lost. FML

"this barnacle"

I'm so sorry op that you must live in the same world as idiots like that--though the awesomeness of your calling him "this barnacle" has me distracted. That is a brilliant insult. Seriously. I bow to you. I snorted coffee up my nose I laughed so hard when I read it.

You're joking, right?

I'd use this as an opportunity to educate him - he might just be being a dick, which you'll work out pretty fast, but those people would usually go for a more outright and obvious insult. He might genuinely be incredibly uneducated (and before anyone questions how anyone could be SO uneducated, remember some people don;t believe in evolution.). You could shape his views about gay people, he might become more open-minded generally :)

That sucks, OP. Some people are either flat out ignorant or complete dicks, just ignore him.

Some people just aren't comfortable with gay people and don't know much about it. It's not ignorance, they just don't know how it works. Jeez, gay people demand to be accepted, and when people make an effort to try and accept them, they put them down.

Do idiots like you have feelings? Sorry, I'm just uncomfortable with idiots but I'm trying to accept you.
