View Full Version : When asked about a girlfriend?

Hey guys, I'm not out too anyone yet and I'm planning on coming out maybe next year maybe the year after. Anyway I'm sick of being asked about girlfriends and relationships. I think my family doesn't think I could get a girlfriend and I kind of want to prove them wrong. Over the years girls have had crushes on me but I avoided them because it never felt right. Wow none of that had anything to do with the question..... Sorry for all this writing. My question is When somebody asks you if you have a girlfriend or anything along those lines what do you reply with? I don't want people knowing I'm gay yet. I'm just sick of adults and kids my age asking. My family doesn't ask. So yeah, how can you reply?

Just tell them no because your not ready for a relationship yet and your focusing on school and stuff and don't have time for a relationship
They don't need to no your business
Just tell them that for now
Eventually tho you will need to come clean

Thanks appreciate it. People don't see me as a serious person though and they wont take that seriously. Like, for instance, if a younger kid say 13 or 14 asks me what do I say? And he's bagging chicks left and right.

Well he's younger tell him it's not his business or he will understand when he is younger
Not everyone is the same were all different
You like men- cool I'm fine with that
I'm pan-sexual- yay works for me
If you feel comfortable being closeted then that's your choice but don't feel pressured by anything anybOdy says. Your you and nobody can change that!

Well what I did to avoid the boyfriend thing before I was out was just say I didn't want one.

If they ask if you have one, just say no. If they ask why not, tell them it's none of their business, and if they keep asking, tell them to back the hell off lol. Don't feel pressured to come out (or get a girlfriend) just because people are asking. Do it on your own time, and until then, try not to let it bother you too much :)

it's hard isn't it? being expected to live one way and inside wanting to live another way.
ignoring is hard. i found that eventually i just had to tell them. and the MINUTE i did they stopped asking about my relationship. It's also been such a relief. consider it!

Now I'm normally a VERY level-headed person, but I would tell them to mind their own fucking business

I just say that I'm really focusing on school since I'm running for honors. It's a bit more annoying since 90% of my friends are girls and some people are like, "Oh, I bet you like [x], you and [y] should date," etc.

Same exact thing with me, but if they ask about a certain person I can joke my way out of it. 90% of my friends are guys 10 months of the year, but in the summer I go somewhere else and most of my friends are girls there.

Well the ones that annoy me most are the ones that know i am gay though pretend they forgot as they hate the fact i am, But i get asked this girlfriend stuff probably 2 times a day on the most part so trust me i am used to hearing it, But i always picture it being a boy or say "I won't have a girlfriend but...." Stuff like that, I wish you the best of luck coming out :) P.s. just saw you are 16, That can cause a lot of stress and depression not being out yet, I came out at like 15 and more and more people have been finding out since, Coming out makes your life a lot easier, Yet again good luck :D

If anyone asks just say its none of their business!
If people have enough time to hound you about your love life and don't have one of their own then they have enough time to make theirs better! i hate when people make their seem perfect then ask about yours! look......its no one business who you like and your sexuality....if they don't like it then they can get to steppin!
