What would you do if you fall into love with a straight man
-
I use to masturbate using my tears as lube.
These days I move on to the next crush pretty quickly when I see there's no chance. I think an immunity is built up after the first 3 people I wanted to love not including the small would bang crushes in between them
What really bugs me is when a guy I like complains about being in the friend zone when Im automatically friend zoned by 90% of people I'd like to bang before even meeting them just because I have a Y chromosome

When I was still in school, I was in love with my best friend who is 100% straight. I knew it but couldn't help myself. However, when he would flirt with girls, I would be so jealous and would have tantrums. He didn't understand and I was the only one who suffered. One day, I told him how I felt, he wouldn't accept that I am gay, we eventually stopped hanging out. As of today, I am happy that it ended, it was a one sided relationship where I expected too much from him.

It's tough, okay, but patience IS a virtue.
The following is quoted from http://www.dailydot.com/opinion/mostly-straight-men-sexual-fluidity/
The reality is that a majority of LGBT folks. orientations change over the course of their lives. According to blogger Leh Miller, "84 percent of women and 78 percent of men [report] that they had changed their sexual identity label at least once."
And some, like [actress Maria] Bello or actor Josh Hutcherson, might be hesitant to label at all. Hutcherson defines himself as "mostly straight,"
reflecting a new open-mindedness when it comes to an emerging generation of young men. Hutcherson said, "Maybe I could say right now I'm 100 percent straight. But who knows? In a f**king year, I could meet a guy and be like, 'Whoa, I'm attracted to this person.' I think defining yourself as 100 percent anything is kind of near-sighted and close-minded."To match its users' spectrum of preferences, [online dating site] OkCupid recently expanded its sexuality options to include a variety of labels, including asexual, homosexual, and the controversial term sapiosexual, which means you're attracted to intelligence.
50 percent of heterosexual women and 25 percent of heterosexual men reported having at least some recent same-sex attraction. Likewise, 35 percent of heterosexual women and 24 percent of heterosexual men reported masturbating to a same-sex fantasy in the last year. And not just that, but 2 percent of heterosexual women and 9 percent of heterosexual men reported actually having same-sex contact in the last year.

My [Pornofan] guess is that many of those 9% of Str8 men are not frat boys ("God was I drunk last night") but randy guys going cold turkey against their will at That time of the month. Or maybe people who have discovered a gloryhole(perhaps at an adult video arcade) that is conveniently and easily available. There sure are a lot of older men newly single and long out of the dating scene who suddenly become "bicurious." And while lots of gay men have been married to women and are now free to look elsewhere, not all of those men realized their strong attraction to other men until after they had been married for a while.
It may be a bit like teens doing the standard dating thing and making out and all that, but without the kind of enthusiasm other guys seem to have, and eventually having worked through the "normal" alternatives, the young man realizes why it is that women are not interesting to him sexually, and perhaps not even interesting at all. And that is on top of mutable sexual interests, which are already different from youthful experimentation.
I do love the deep bonds that exist between men, often under the general radar, unlike the much celebrated "sisterhood" of women. That may very well take the form of a special, deeply emotional relationship that may even have a physical component not present for anyone else. In Torchwood, the British television spinoff of Dr. Who, the leader of the team is omnisexual, and sex with invading aliens happens as well as with men and women both. His long-term (in the series anyway) lover is only gay for one man. Since the man he loves is played by out actor John Barrowman (currently on US television in Arrow, a show rather overflowing with hunks), there are a number of gay storylines in Torchwood, some quite poignant.
Now that the love that won't shut up is all over the media, in television, films, stage, and interviews, more and more people seem willing to claim some flexibility in theory, if not in practice. The standard view these days for people who say they are not gay is to add a tag line from Seinfeld (a sitcom) and proclaim, "Not that there is anything wrong with that."
The truth is that sex is sex and people do what they do. For over a century now, there has been a label, "homosexual," as if everyone fit into neat little categories and stayed there. Women are more likely to go back and forth between men and women, but the more musicians, sports figures, and entertainers in general refuse to speak or act as if they think anything IS wrong with some orientations, the more easy it become for people to explore options that otherwise would be repressed out of fear of the Public Victorian. And not for nothing does it turn out that the most virulent homophobes are the ones most turned on by gay porn.
I've met Josh Hutcherson, btw, before he was a teen idol from Hunger Games and was just rather chunky and at the edge of stardom. He is so generous with his public sentiments because, having been raised in the business, he has always known gay men, and because he has a gay uncle.
Did anyone else see the broadcast wrap party after the final episode of long-running TV sitcom "cheers"? Woody Harrelson said on camera that he was not shamed to admit he would go down onconstar Ted Danson. Another true life confession like comedian Tim Allen's rift in one of his broadcast standup routines about how men should be willing to blow a buddy who is sad or depressed. The audience laughed wildly.
All of which musing is to suggest that standardly accepted inhibitions are not as powerful today as they once were. Truck stops on long-haul routes often have gloryholes for use by str8 drivers in need of accommodation. From at least the 1600s, no sailor ever signed about a second major voyage without knowing how men at sea release tension. Not something they talked about with the "little lady" back home, but also an uncontroversial fact of life. There is also, of course, the "dear love of comrades" in the military, daily facing death together. There is a very moving volume of WWI poetry written by soldiers about their love for another man. What that meant in practice is unclear, but at least their openly romantic language was part of a world less judgmental than the one in which some geezers were raised in an atmosphere of nearly universal oppression.
Men just do a lot of things behind closed doors that are never discussed or acknowledged otherwise. What we know about sexual behavior by long-term prisoners is also true of other all-male environments. Cowboys, for example, were not necessarily celibate until they could get into town after a long cattle drive, and in town and lacking cash, they may have made good use of a convenient ribbon clerk behind the outhouse.
Unfortunately, interesting as I find all this, and as much as I like to think that any strait man might allow himself, due to circumstance, a Special relationship that includes a sexual component, that does not mean that when one man falls for another, anything good is likely to come of it. And yet… I remember the recollection of a gay man talking about picking up soldiers with his friend and then blowing them in separate beds in the same hotel room. He noted that often enough, the men being serviced would kiss each other deeply as they were occupied in a supposedly forbidden way.

It is not just tough. It is a nightmare.

Hmmm Im in that kind of situation right now, or better to say, last 4 months when new colleague start to work with me in the same office. Never told him anything about it and when I thought I can deal with it ( Im even arrange him a date with women from another department) our chef came today and told us that next week we are going together on some seminar. We r going to be in the same room in hotel for 5 days ! :cry3: :cry3: :cry3: :cry3: :cry3: :cry3: :cry3:

I was in love with a man who identifies as strictly straight for about half a year before things turned sour. He was someone who sought me out for comfort and things sort of blossomed from there. It could have been for all intents and purposes a real relationship, all the emotional part was invested by both parties and heck there was willingness to get physical too. Until this straight guy went and found God. I mean good for him, he's all incredibly happy and whatnot now, he's at peace with himself, but he's ended things for good. And it sucked. Obviously. Guy was everything I could have wanted in someone. This was probably around the same time I came to the conclusion that crushes on straight men need to be extinguished before they burst into the flames of passion. Flames of one-sided passion in most cases.
TLDR; fell in love with str8boi, started things with str8boi, str8boi found jesus, str8boi ended things.

Unfortunately, I
m still in love with one… Probably Ill suffer (silently) for a while, and wait, cause it will pass, eventually![😕](https://community.gaytor.rent/assets/plugins/nodebb-plugin-emoji/emoji/apple/1f615.png?v=57695cee877 ":-\")

My advice… RUN!!!
-
I'd lure him into one of those fundamentalist "pray the gay away" re-orientation camps. Everybody that comes out of those places is gay. >:D
-
I would try not too… I have a close friend who has fallen for so many straight guys and everyone of them has ended in heartbreak.
-
Life is simple don't make it complicated
-
It's very difficult as I had crushes at school with str8 guys and later in my working life had the same. Yes they knew I was gay and liked male bonding like hugging, sharing the shower etc and it frustrated me massively. Naturallym I want to keep the strong friendships without crossing that line…

I believe we've all been on this situation more often than not, simply because most men identify themselves as straight. A lot of people will tell you to go for it and try it, but think about how you'd feel if it was the other way around, if a girl tried to "flip" you. The LGBT community is sometimes so fixed on all orientations deserving respect that we sometimes forget that the cisgender heterosexual people are also an ortientation and deserve as much respect, if the guy turns out to be bi or gay on denial or something of the sorts that's a different story, and in those situations things tend to happen pretty naturally, but on most cases it's better to move on.
TL;DR= clinging to the hopeful belief that any straight man can be turned gay/bi for you is just as offensive and close minded as the religious nuts that believe any gay/bi man can be turned straight for Jesus. They're here, they're NOT queer, we better get used to it.

Sure, its though, been there, but the worst is loving a gay to pretend to be straight.
-
I once fell for my best friend. He's straight, but quite comfy with himself. We talk about quite literally everything. I told him if he ever gets curious, I call dibs.

Or a guy who's so closeted that he never intends to acknowledge you in public as anything other than your frien

that would be hard
but i think i would kinda get some distance from him, and try to move on -

That hurts so much worse. Falling for a straight man is just yearning for the unobtainable, but that's like having something that could, should and would be better, but you just aren't worth it to him…
That's how I felt about it anyway. -
it happened to me so many times. i cant really explain but yes…. its highly painful.
the main problem is, the communication u do with him and the stuff he doesnt understand.
u come back home empty handed.
miserable.....!!
