    Just back to my hometown after breaking up with my ex.I'm ready to start meeting girls again.The only problem is some of the women here think I'm gay after hearing poison gossip from a girl I ignored a few years back.The reason I ignored her was that I was faithful to my ex at the time & wanted to do the right thing.These local women never met my ex so instead believe this crap.Should I ignore this crap & chat them up anyway or stand up for myself & nip this in the bud? My family think I shouldn't care what other people think or say about me & just get on with my life but as a straight bloke its humiliating & stressful to think some people think I'm gay.:(

    I am serious when I say I can see this as more of an advantage than a disadvantage. Girls don't find gay men threatening or off putting, lots of them will want to go out of their way to talk to you to see if the roumers are true, you have the best conversation material in the world here dude...

    I've a similar prob in that ppl think I'm a lesbian because I have never really had a bfriend but people just draw the wrong conclusion. Would also like to know if it's better to go along pretending to enjoy talkin to ppl when you just really don't wanna.
