I am new here..and here's something about me.. I am a guy, i am from a country which is modernizing fast but still holds much of the conservative beliefs.. i live in a religious neighborhood and dont have any friends around where i live. i dont think i am effeminate so there is no question of being bullied in that context.. but when i was a kid i didn't play any sports or i wasn't even interested in any of the stuffs most of the straight guys liked to do...and that's the reason i could never relate to them... which in turn resulted in them bullying and teasing me.. all through the school i ended up being alone not having any single person to talk to... after i finished school i got into a college which is far from where i live, and thus nobody knew my past. and i made some friends. still very few. i have two or three close friednds. two guys and a girl. but none of them know about my sexual orientation..
Hello, LOL I had the same problem with dude friends since I didn't play much sports. I hung around a lot of girls so the dudes thought I was a "Lady's man" so they didn't pick on me much. ^_^
Yea it also happened with me to a certain extent... In college people still think i am not around guys because i am to "Busy" with girls, though the truth is i am with girls only as a friend and not anything else.. its not like i dont like to be friends with straight dudes but most of the time their talks just doesn't interest me at all.. and second reason is that i feel if i become to close to guys they might eventually find out who i actually am.. and i certainly dont want that to happen... EVER.. i remember one time i gathered courage and told a friend that i am most probably a bisexual... and all he was like "why the hell you are messing around with me?" and then he left... he still doesn't believe i was speaking the truth.... on a related note. i sometimes feel glad being on kinsey scale 5 and still having body language almost like a straight guy... we had this guy at shcool who was effeminate gay and he was bullied a lot.. i always stood by him when he needed me.... but never had courage to tell him that he is not the only one with alternate sexuality in school....
