Um...straight homecoming

    Because I live in Georgia, going to homecoming with a guy is out of the question. Most people are ok with me being gay, but I think if I ACTUALLY made an appearance with a guy everyone would be a little freaked out. So, my friend Marie asked me if I would go to homecoming with her. Her boyfriend is in the military and all of her guy friends are straight, except for me. So her boyfriend said that I was the only person who could go with her. So we're going to go and hang out with everyone and I'm probably going to go stay over her house that night.

    However, I don't really know how to tell my mom. We don't talk about my sexuality that much, even though I've obviously told her I'm gay. I'm worried that she might flip out. Anyone got an idea on how to tell her that her son is a someone's gay date?

    I would tell her what you said above...

    Being from Alabama, I know how you feel about bringing a guy to homecoming. I just took my best female friend, and made jokes all night about I hope she didn't have hopes for sex. :slight_smile:

    I know what you mean. Fl-or-id-a right here. Thankfully I might not go and the teachers will burden us with HW.

    I really want to go with my BF but the rumors that would come up....

    Just tell her the truth and get her to understand you are doing your friend a favor. it doesn't change who you are

    Its totally up to you. if you feel that you should go with a guy and make the night extra special than go for it. But if you feel that you dont want people to be talking about you while you are there, go with marie. I just want you to have a great time there and dance till your legs are about to fall off(!) (!) (!)

    but if i was in your situation, i would take a guy and give the finger to everyone who looks at us weird:icon_bigg

    well, if there are safety issues involved (like the red-necks with guns :lol: ) I'd say you go with the girl...you can't always do what you really want, but I'm sure you'll have plenty of fun with her too :thumbsup:

    Just tell your mom that you are going as friends, nothing else, a lot of people go to these things as friends.
