Mixed signals
Today, I thought I was going on a date. About 20 minutes into it, after giving her my arm to hold (like a true gentleman) it came up in conversation that my brother is gay. Her response: "Oh, so both you and your brother are gay?" FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, the girl I thought I was dating introduced me to her boyfriend. We've gone on dates and have slept in the same bed, but it turns out she thought I was her gay best friend and was planning to introduce me to her boyfriend's brother. FML
Today, my boyfriend told me that he was gay and that he is in love with my younger brother. FML
Today, I went on the best date I've been on in years. Later on, over drinks we get talking and I explain how I came out to my friends and family. When I ask him how he came out, he replies that he isn't gay, and oh, did I think this was a date? FML
Today, my good buddy of about two years set me up on a blind date. I got to the meeting point and realized that my date was a guy. My "buddy" honestly thought I was gay. FML
Today, I was eating out with my family. I have 2 brothers. Our waitress comes and says, "Look at those 3 handsome young men." I didn't think of it until my 5-year-old brother shouted, " She's a girl!'" FML
Today, I went on a date with a beautiful woman I had recently met. Great food, great conversation, and a great connection. That is, until she revealed that she is a lesbian. FML
Today, on a dating site, I was matched with my brother, again. FML
Today, my brother came out to our family as being gay. My mother starting crying because she "wanted grandchildren." I told her that I was planning on having children. She started crying harder. FML
Today, I went to a family reunion with my brother and my mother. She spent quite a while giving a glowing introduction for my brother to one of her cousins. Then, just before walking off, she jerked a thumb in my direction and said, "Oh, yeah, and that's his sister." FML
Today, I thought my date last night went quite well, especially when she called me first thing this morning… until it turned out she wasn’t very impressed, and wanted my brother's number instead. The single, successful lawyer, who is 6 inches taller than me, who she saw on my Facebook page. FML

That's not a bad thing at all. Girls who had experiences having crushes on guys who turned out to be gay often try to preempt it happening again by assuming any guy they like is gay. Just tell her you're not. It's really likely she'll be interested.

agreed with #3. the only way to a woman's heart is through pain and suffering. make her believe that you are too good for her. if she is a shameless ***** with daddy issues (most women are) she will be desperate for your approval, which will most likely mean sleeping with you.

we gentlemen never get the credit we deserve. in many cases, never even the attention as the ladies would rather be with some chongo jock type

I agree with 2 & 3. Smack her, prove to her that you are in fact a man's man. Nothing says 'I'm straight and we could be good together' like a backhand to the mouth. No, joking, I hope you corrected her.
