In college, every single guy I was friends with was LGBT. But, when I throw in the girls (straight and LGBT) and my friends from high school (straight), I get a pretty even split between LGBT people and straight people.
Nope. Most of my friends are straight girls lol. I have 1 friend (who is a girl) which came out to me as bisexual though Other than that, they are all straight. I have only 1 guy friend who I can consider "a best friend" and he's straight too ^_^ I haven't really came out to any of my friends, except like 2 which I explained through a post. I don't even know for sure if I'm gay or not, in fact I feel very straight right now lol. They sure probably have their suspicions, but that's mostly only because I'm "camp" which is annoying since I don't like being stereotyped.
I used to have alot of gay friends. When me and my boyfriend got serious they all decided they werent interested anymore, so now i have one or two gay friends im not very close with.
I try not to base my friend on their sexual orientation, I choose them base on their personal qualities.
So true...yep I've connected so much with my friends, that sexuality, race, gender and age is not important. True friendship defies these categories. The important thing is that you have friends that support and love you for who you are.
we have some close friends that we have known years holidayed together last year two of them got married kind of made us want to get married to .
It's odd: Me and my mate have a lot of friends, but I'll be damned if I can think of any gay ones. Aside from a few friends that are bi when they're drunk, that's about all I can think of. We seem to somehow not attract gay people, it sees, maybe due to our interests not having much in common with the 'mainstream' gay community? Hard to say, but it has often made me wonder.
I have one friend that's bi, and I have an acquaintance who is pan. Neither are really out. And the majority of everyone else I know I know is homophobic, or at the very least expresses those views the joys of small rural communities.
All my friends are straight and when I tell them I have no gay friends, they are like WHAT? They know more gay people than I do
Not even close. I have one lesbian friend, but she's not even one of my closest friends. Everyone else I know is straight.
Do I have a dedicated group? No. But at least half of my friends are LGBT. My two best gal pals from high school, and all (except two) of my guy friends I met in middle school are either gay or bi.
My friend group is pretty much exclusively queer. There's maybe 10 or so folks that're straight/cis. From the time I started high school until I graduated, I immediately befriended a lot of queer & alternative kids. I wasn't out all 4 years, so it wasn't a conscious thing, but we all ended up grouped together anyways.
Okay, so when I came out to my friends a couple months ago, they all started coming out as bi as well. It was kind of strange, like we all thought we had this big secret and we were all afriad of being ridiculed by the others, but in the end we were all going through similar situations. There are 9 people in our sircle of friends and 6/9 of us identify as something other than straight. Five of us our bi,and the other friend is non-binary and pan. We joke around, and say that our non-straightness gravitated us slowly to each other.
In vast majority, my friends are straight. By the time I came out (at 25), I had already formed a tight-knit group of friends, and I haven't really done that much to expand the core group. In fact, there is one gay guy other than me and he's the one I talk to LEAST about "gay topics". His taste in men and opinions on GLBT topics are almost exactly counter to mine. Luckily enough, we get alng great in shared interests, though. That's not to say I don't have gay friends other than my core group. My boyfriend is gay (shocker, isn't it?) as is my best friend outside of my core group. But it's more an incidental thing than something I looked for.
