Every where I go, I have gay men hitting on me, I even had gay men ask for me to take a picture with them at the beach because they thought I had perfect abs and was a model. Yet women don't even talk to me. Do women think I'm gay? I don't act gay at all, most of my friends would laugh at me if I told them I was gay because of how my personality is. I'm actually a virgin at 21 years old because women have always been stand offish towards me, yet I get about 5-10 gay men a week asking for my phone number on social media or in real life

I notice whenever I cross paths with a woman I don't know or have seen a few times before at work or school or wherever, they always either avoid eye contact with me, or if we make eye contact and I smile, they look away instantly the instant I start to smile to be polite towards them. I'm not a creepy old dude, I'm not weird, etc. Most men don't do this and most older women don't do this and always smile back, it's usually only women around my age range. I'm 24

Me and this guy have been best friends for a very long time, and we're both 18. He's a very sweet guy, and he's always the one who's there for me when I need. I've always had a huge crush on him, and I know he likes me a lot, I'm just not sure if he likes me the same way that I like him. I lost my virginity to him a few months ago, we've been having sex almost everyday, and I love having sex with him. We always hang out and spend time together, and lately he has been inviting me to hang out with him and his friends too. Once one of his friends tried to hit on me, and he got totally jealous. His mother once walked in on us having sex, it was extremely embarrassing, and he told her that I'm his girlfriend, so I asked him later "are we girlfriend and boyfriend now?" and he told me that he only said that so the situation wouldn't look that bad for both of us. I really like him a lot, he treats me like I'm his girlfriend most of the time, he's all loving and sweet to me, and I want to be more than friends. Last week we were drinking together and I wanted to have sex with him, but he didn't want to because he thought I was drunk (I wasn't), so idk if that was the real reason, or if he knows that I like him and now he's rejecting me. We haven't seen each other ever since, because we've both been busy. What can I do to turn whatever this is to a relationship?

I've known this girl for years and seems really flirty to me or friendly. Well she giggles when I looked at her, laughed loudly at my jokes. She got red from talking to me and couldn't stand still or make good eye contact but has a big smile on her face. She couldn't start conversations very well so she laughed loudly, started asking questions about what I'm talking about or butt into my conversations by responding to me. She stared at me. Wants selfies with me next to her has me get really close barely touching telling me to get closer and blushed next to me. She'd send me the picture for me to post on Facebook to like it then tell me the next day she likes it as I walk into class when she took it. Whenever we talked she tried to get us closer. Well she liked a picture with my dad tagged in it to tell me the next day she likes it so it notified him on Facebook then he tells me she likes me. I stop seeing her in class and go out to eat, she's working and in one place. I'm with my mom she says hi then moves to a spot that has a clear view of me and stares at me a little bit and stays there the whole time but when we leave she goes to wait on people so she's standing by us. I see her almost a year later shes in a car drunk and I look over she's laughing and stares at me over her shoulder and raised her eyebrows, dips her chin and widens her eyes staring deep into my eyes with my mom right next to me. I feel uncomfortable with her being this open to flirting in front of my parents why would girls do this, she seems shy but she's doing that stuff. ☆ Sent from iOS Dr. Know! 1.1.04

Most of my old friends don't even want to meet or go anywhere now because they are gaming. Even when we do meet they only talk about games. I don't get why people let it take control of their lives so much.

he knew she was a psycho before i ever met her and he didn't tell me

Ok so I'm a 26 year old female and I have this friend that's 58 and she is rude to me sometimes. I had an anxiety attack one time when I was with her and she told me to pull myself together and I feel like she has just changed. I can't do this anymore and I feel like she doesn't care about me like she used to. It makes me not even want to be here anymore. I'm sure she doesn't treat her other friends like this but I don't know and she said that she's here if I need her but then another time she said I can't make you feel safe and secure all the time so then why would she say that she's here if I need her? I'm not talking to her about this either because it won't help any. I've tried to communicate with her about what was bothering me with her but it didn't help at all. I just can't do this anymore. Please help me and it's hard for me to make new friends

I'm in my mid-30s, and I've come to the conclusion: there will always be people who dislike or even loathe each other, even in a SOCIAL CIRCLE they belong to. Am I right? I never really had friends I was actively engaged with until my early 20s... then by my mid 20s, I had a true circle. But over the years, I realized some people were put off by my behavior, and vice versa. It wasn't just me. Some people didn't get along. I'm in my 30s now and I realize I'm not likable, but neither are most anyone—it's hard to make friends. People don't like each other, am I right? LOL

Ok. So, I know if you bottle things up they can fester etc. And keeping ones problems to oneself can hurt a lot. So, I need advice on talking to friends who a) have boatloads of problems (really ones like family troubles or anxiety and mine are trivial in comparison) and b) they always talk to me about how people are always offloading on them so I don't wanna add to that. Please if anyone can help.

A while ago I planned my 16th birthday celebration and I invited my best friend at the time. Now, a while later, she has changed a lot very quickly and I don't want her at my celebration anymore. If it were just a regular party, I would just suck it up and deal with it, but the celebration is at kalahari, a waterpark/resort place and I can only bring one friend, and it is expensive. Because of that, I don't want to bring someone with whom I won't have fun/will not enjoy my birthday. Is there any way to invite someone else instead of her without being rude or mean? Even if I have to lie it would be better than ruining my birthday and not having fun. What would a good excuse be??

My best friend of 15 years and I are very close. Well recently she started dating this guy. They've been dating for almost 3 months and he has a 1 year old daughter. Ever since dating him she has kind of gone off the radar compared to how she normally is. She wants to be with him 24/7 and has also seemed to replace my son (her godson) with her new boyfriends daughter on her priority list. The guy is nice and I like him but I don't like how she has changed since dating him. Recently, my birthday passed and this is the first year she didn't get me a gift, which wouldn't have been a big deal if it wasn't for the fact that 2 days before my birthday we went shopping and she bought him $300 shoes just because he liked them. Then, Mother's Day just passed. This is the first time in 7 years she didn't even wish me a happy Mother's Day. A couple days later we go out and she talks about how she needs to get him a really nice Father's Day gift because he got her something for Mother's Day. I was confused and said what do u mean?? You're not a mom lol. She said he bought her a diamond bracelet because she is basically his daughters stepmom.....again, it hasn't even been 3 months yet since they MET. I didn't say anything but inside I was hurt. She is going all out for him for Father's Day but couldn't even wish me a happy Mother's day. She is getting treated better than I ever have been on Mother's Day and she's not even a mom! Am I being too sensitive? Should I just let it go?

This sounds petty but, have you ever mentioned a really popular song that's everywhere to a friend, and they're like: "Never heard of it?" My friend has said this a couple of times, and YES I KNOW he has every right. But I can't deny it kind a bugs me. Yes, he likes music too. Thoughts? Experiences?

We broke up and when I tried going back(6 months ago) he said he wouldn't forgive me for saying something about his mom when he said something to mine first(idiotic).I didn't chase him. We ran into eachother one day i expected him to ignore but he smiled and said hi.Now he keeps looking at me, making eye contact and i caught him looking at me sneakily through the door crack. He's started coming out about the same time as I do and he said hi hesitantly and smiling. Few Sundays ago I was going down the stairs and he was behind me. He was "on the phone" saying he was leaving church and would call back which wasn't necessary since church was already over. I feel like he did it so I'd know he was behind me. We walked next to eachother he smiled and said how are you. We had a few exchanges and I asked him about his sick brother. The following week he didnt show himself inside church(he's a deacon) as I was leaving he was behind me going down the stairs. I turned around just saw a glimpse of him and turned back around didn't say hi. He would look to lock eyes with me and smile when we'd be close now even though throughout church he keeps staring but when we lock eyes these past two Sundays he doesn't smile anymore and looks away. It's weird that since he was mad he constnatly stares and started smiling. But he's not making a move? Does it sound like he doesn't want to or too prideful?

I was recently bit by a rattlesnake while hiking on a trail with my friend. He started filming on snapchat me a few moments after saying " X just got bit by a rattlesnake!" and when I asked him why he was filming he said he was going to send it to his girlfriend. I promptly hit him until he deleted the video and put his phone away, as we were walking back to the car I noticed he was walking slowly behind me and that pissed me off since I was going faster than him with a messed up leg. Later at the hospital he lost my keys after he got his backpack from my car and was walking around the hospital looking for a vending machine, we had to get a ride at 3 AM and I had to have it towed and the key replaced. I don't know man, after this incident i've just been thinking about how terrible he was in this emergency situation and i'm not sure if I should just stop talking to him all together as I am going to College in the fall.

So at work my co worker picks on me and honestly, I'm getting annoyed of it. She was making fun of me because I said I wear two piece bathing suits and she was like "That's so bad to be doing that, don't you feel ashamed? I can never flaunt my body around like that!!" But then she wears short dresses with her cleavage showing everyday. She also makes fun of me because I don't affiliate myself with any religion. She tells me "Wow, how do you sleep at night. People like you need a wake up call, you're such a sad soul, you need religion!" And goes on about it. She also tells me my hair looks bad that day or I should stop doing my makeup because SHE doesn't like how it looks. I'm super nice to her and I tell her nicely how I feel about her comments but she continues to says things. Earlier today she made a comment about my leg hair because I forgot to shave for a couple days and it's just stubbly. She said "Eww why aren't you shaving? That's so nasty, I hate hair on my legs!" What can I say to her so she'll stop bothering me?

I'm a nice person. I have been mean to people in the past but I try not do that anymore. I have come a long way as far as that goes so why do I have violent thoughts?

Ok so I really need some answers to this question. Ok so I'm a 26 year old female and I have this friend and she asked me if she could be my friend over a year ago and I told her yes and she was 57 at the time and I was 25 is this weird? Because I thought she would want more friends her own age and she also has called me her BFF

He manged to fight off two after running for a few mins which they then decided it wasn't worth it and someone shouted "leave it leave it". Since then he has become inpatient very easy angered which is so different from how he was. Used to be kind and pretty quiet. Now he just seems slighty angry. The people were on motorbikes so when he hears motorbikes he looks for it straight away. Will this be a lasting effect on him??

So I was invited to a birthday party by a friend who I haven't spoken to in over two years. She invited me to it last year but I wasn't able to make it. Now I want to go but i'm a very introverted person so i'm worried about not knowing anyone. I know one of my other friends will be there but i'm not sure if she'll talk to me over the other people. I also want to ask my best friend if she was invited because she's good friends with this girl too but I don't want to ask and her not be invited. What should I do about having nobody to talk to? Should I ask my friend if she's invited, if so how? Also one more question. I have my license so I'll be able to drive but I don't know anything about the parking situation and the party will end at night. I don't want to be stuck in a situation where I'm leaving when everyone else is. But I don't want my mom to have to pick me and up and stuff. I feel like that'll be embarrassing. So should I tough it out and drive?

I'll try to be short here, but it's a little hard. So I'm a guy, been friends with this girl for a few years, we've been inactive with each other quite a lot but recently we've been more active, and I consider this girl one of my best friends. It's a long distance friendship and I know this is embarassing, but I've confessed to her a few times that I like her and rejected each and every time because of the distance between us (Israel-Indonesia). I kinda still like her but that's not the point, today is our friendship anniversary and I want to gift her something and surprise her unexpectedly, but I want the gift not too seem too awkward and have the "I still like you and I'm desperate" feel to it, any suggestions? I've been thinking about doing a heart pop-out card and a few flowers next to it, but would that cross the line? Suggestions would be appreciated <3

The past couple of weeks I've been depressed/anxious. My friend has been a great friend listening to me during the duration. After a while he has gotten short with me and not really carrying conversations like he did in the past. I confronted him about it today at work. He told me he just felt like every conversation we were having was about how I was feeling. I said I will give him space (he didn't say it). The rest of the shift I actively tried to avoid him and only really talked to him when it was work related. When he left today he said "thanks (my name)" in a caring way. Later today we were both out golfing (not together) and I eventually caught up with his group. I think he tried to ask me to join them but I ignored him and just left. tldr: My friend and I have hit a rough patch and need to give each other space, but it was not specified. So I guess my questions are: Should I tell him how much time I need and/or ask him how much time he needs? Second, his birthday is coming up very soon and I got him a present and wrote him a letter just telling him how great he is as a friend a little bit ago. Should I give him this present during our time away from each other? Thirdly because we work the same job I'll still be seeing him. A part of me wants to avoid him when he comes in, but I'm afraid it'll just seem like I'm mad at him. How do I go about this?
