    Any couple in fanfiction can look unnatural.

    I feel weird imagining myself in a heterosexual relationship, but I don't feel weird when I see a heterosexual couple, I'm just uninterested, when I see a same sex couple holding hands or kissing, I just give a cute smile and basically tell myself that's me in the future.

    Absolutely. Straight relationships do not feel normal to me. I cannot imagine being in one, so yeah. Weird.

    I don't think they're weird but they feel quite foreign to me in the sense that I can't really relate to them and I can't quite picture being in one at all.

    I can't relate to straight relationships, but that's just because I'm not straight. All in all they can be just as great and bad as any gay relationship can be. As long as it's between consenting adults I have no issue!

    I sometimes wonder if straight couples just can't have the sort of intimacy that gay ones have. Having the same type of body I feel I know my way around a man's body better than any woman.

    as I guy I can get really aroused just pleasing another guy I don't know of men can do that with women. I know couldn't when i was in denial.

    For me the biggest confusion is with straight culture around relationships. Like the mentality that marriage is a trap, especially for men, and you're doomed to be miserable and dragged down for the rest of your life when you tie the knot. If you dislike marriage so much, why are you getting married???

    Heavily gender-roled straights relationships seem strange to me.

    Even, or dare I say "normal" straight relationships do not feel unusual. Then again, I am bisexual...

    Yes. Absolutely. I cannot stand to see a guy kissing a girl or vise-versa. I have never ever thought that straight relationships were natural. I had some straight friends who were girls that were always coming to me for straight relationship advice but I always thought "Oh shit, I'm not tuned for this area of life." XD I could never ever really answer their questions either. I just don't care for straight relationships at all. I've never been in one either.

    Not unnatural at all. What feels unnatural to me is that there is still that distinction. To me love is love.

    To an extent, I suppose?

    It's the rather imbalanced ones that really get me, like "Oh, the man has to make all the decisions, do all the work, and gets the final say in everything" "Oh, the woman has to stay home and have a billion children and take care of them 24/7" I don't see the appeal in that, some relationships it even has the man thinking he's "above" her and sometimes that archaic mindset devolves into senseless abuse. The US avoided passing the equal rights act due to such silliness.

    From what I've seen, having people less capable of relating to one another often leads to more arguments in the relationship too. Harder to relate, harder to communicate?

    I'm not "heterophobic" though, don't worry. Not going illegalize straight marriage, Not going to paint you rainbow and ask lord Cthulhu to make you gay. :lol:
