    Ok. This has happened to me a bunch of times now. I'll be waiting in line somewhere, not doing or saying anything to call attention to myself, and old ladies (in their 70s or 80s maybe) come up to me and say I have a "lovely soul". I appreciate the compliment and all, but it's really really weird and awkward.

    I can't be the only one that this happens to, right? Right??

    I really don't know whether it happens to others. I don't believe I've ever experienced it. I can see how it might be awkward, but just thank them. It doesn't hurt, and they are likely to be trying to be kind.

    xD not with old people. They're probably demented lol u_____u.

    CRAZY people, yes. Or they just hvae a lot of questions about me.

    Sometimes l think certain groups of people transmit an "outsider" vibe to one another. Not because we're gay per se, but because we may have had similar life experiences.

    l get so much of it that l just have the random conversations with people now, and answer such questions as : ''what's your favorite color''...

    They notice the gay in you. They sense it. It's a blessing. ....Or they're going fairly senile.

    I don't know. I have older customers at work and on the train say similar things such as I'm a "lovely person" I'm a "sweetie" and "have a good soul of most those my age", but that's just because I'm courteous. Nobody's just come up to me and said anything like that for no reason. I'd actually find it kinda funny. I'd probably laugh and go, "You too. God bless ya'."

    Haha! There's no question that one was senile. The others were perfectly normal.

    Most people tend to tell me I'm too old for my age. And not just old people, but nearly everyone I meet. Some people say it quicker than others, but I've been hearing the "old soul" bit since I was a child. So, now when people say that I tell them to pipe down or people will start to suspect something. It's a nice thought, but it gets old after a while, hearing the same thing all the time. So i find ways to have fun with it.
