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

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I finally got the courage to ask my best friend to go on a date with me. She assumed I meant a double date and squealed, "Who's the lucky guy?!" She thought I was her gay best friend for the past year. FML
Today, after weeks of summoning up the courage to come out of the closet to my best friend, I told her I was gay. Immediately after she started cracking up, thinking it was a joke. I was so confused and nervous, I went along with it. She still thinks I'm straight. 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 had a date with a guy. We ran into our gay friend at the theater, who insisted on coming along. My date was pissed, but I couldn't turn our friend away. Afterwards, my date texted our friend, mad because he crashed the date. Turns out he isn't gay. And only crashed it because he likes me. FML
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
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, I told my best friend that I was gay and that I liked him. Turns out he's very open about the topic. Basically, he kissed me and then slapped me. I don't know what that's supposed to mean. FML
Today, I went on a date for the first time in eight months. He didn't make a move. I then asked if we were on a date. He said, "I don't know, I guess." I can't tell either. FML
Today, my friend told me that she gave my number to a guy I've liked for a while. I asked why and she just said "He's just going to have to tell you himself." I got hopeful and really nervous. A few hours later he calls. Turns out, he's called to try and get a date with my gay friend. FML
Today, I went on a blind date a girl from work had set me up with. Apparently my co-worker thinks I'm gay. FML

How did you manage to arrange a date with someone who didn't know it was a date?

Look on the bright side: you had a fun time at least. On the not so bright side: Oh dear god.

F"the other guy's life, he barely missed gettin hit on. Nothing against you gays but it's honestly scary. I would have to say that gaydar is the funniest play on words i have ever seen, and mine is over tuned, i tend to put metro's in with gays. But i can spot a gay from 835275272 miles away.

So, this is actually MY story. My idiot friend posted it for me and sent me the link via Facebook. It took me awhile to get that it was me because it had been so long ago. The bastard is just a really really nice guy who's like, skinny and decent looking, more effeminate than I am, at least by looks (pretty). So we go out and do the equivalent of Frat house hopping ("The Street" @ Princeton U.), and it's like 3 A.M. and, since he was still having a good time, wanted me to come over. So, OF COURSE I thought he was gay and hitting on me. What are you SUPPOSED to think at 3 in the A.M. when you're blitzed out of your head? And I'm not the only one who thinks he's gay either. He's been hit on by at least 3 other guys. It's kind of sad, really. We're still really good friends, but I joke with him that God ****** up and made him straight, because everyone else and their mom thinks otherwise. ******* psych majors. F My Life

@54 This isn't actually your story. And I'm not your idiot friend. But thanks to you and to everyone who has commented here, I see there are equal parts empathy and bigotry out there and it's interesting to see what happens when the two worlds are mashed together in the world of anonymous internet comments.
