    Yeah, I'm pretty sure I've fallen for the straight one at some point. If it was the person I'm thinking about, I'm sure he had the hots for me too which seems normal when I remember I wasn't out back then.

    I've always been lucky to have my affections returned,
    Not that I gave it away much at all

    Considering ~90% of the population is straight, it's inevitable.

    Yes,, we were both supposedly bi'. Now she claims to be straight. How does she do that after having been with a woman for a year? I think she's just saying that for her current boyfriend and maybe to protect her job.

    Three of the five guys I've fallen in love with have been straight. Fortunately, the last two were gay (and reciprocated! :grin: ).

    This is funny, considering how I use to think that I had a crush on a straight girl this one time. Of course, the second I finally started to lose interest in her, she comes out as pansexual. So I don't really think it counts anymore.

    Yep, and the straight one's best friend thinks I'm a man-stealing whore (her words) because the guys she likes usually end up friendly with me and she gets the wrong impression. Oh the irony.

    I haven't had a straight crush, but someone's definitely given me that title in the past. The first girl I ever really liked was pretty much convinced I was either a closet lesbian or a straight girl leading her on because I wasn't ready to put a label on my identity. When I didn't date her, she made up her mind. Turns out she was pretty wrong.

    Yet? Surely you jest. I've fallen for and let go of "the straight one" multiple times.

    It's really confusing the hell out of me right now. Fell for a really good friend that has a stable relationship. It's really really confusing and frustrating.

    Ive been thinking about my most recent.. episode. I think we fall in love with something of theirs that they have, that we desperately want. But are not emotionally mature enough to recognise. Whether it be a loving relationship or a vibrant exciting sex life or some kind of perceived self confidence and emotional stability.

    I think a possible way to deal with this is to look at what is in their lives (perceived or not) that isn't in your life, that you would really really really like. This will take some soul searching, believe me. But I think it can enlighten. Maybe then the feelings will subside.

    YMMV :slight_smile:

    My current crush is, to my great displeasure, "straight". Worst is that he takes joy in knowing that I like him and teases me continuously ¬¬

    Sorry to hear that! Wait until you're the object of someone else's crush (and you're not interested)...that can be awkward as hell too (happening to me right now and I have to use a hell of a lot of diplomacy and tact not to "crush" the poor fellow)! :confused:

    I almost always fall for straight women and sometimes I fall for gay guys, too go figure. I'm always in a lose lose situation.
