FFXI LGBT Community, Who Are You?

*shrug* Don't think I ever saw yours Mytoy.

Here's mine (coming out to my friends):

*awkward moment begins with my roommate 2nd year of college*
Me: Hey... I've been meaning to tell you, I think you're hot.
Roomie: Cool.
Me: You don't find something wrong with this?
Roomie: nope.
*awkward moment ends*

IM discussion with a friend
Me: omg... I can't believe I just confessed to my roomie
Friend: what?
Me: I told him I liked him.
Friend: Wow. You're gay?
Me: Kinda. I'm bi.
Friend: Really?
Me: Crap! I didn't tell you?
Friend: nope.

*one day later*
Roomie: So... you're gay?
Me: no, I'm bi.
Roomie: (o.O)
Me: Is something wrong?
Roomie: No, I'm just used to seeing the world in black and white
Me: /facepalm.

And then I started coming out to everyone slowly.

Kinda lame story, but meh.

Can I tell my reverse coming-out story?

Mom: You know if you were gay, I'd be okay with it right?
Me: Right, but I'm not.
Girlfriend: Trust me, he's not.
Mom: But you know I'd still accept you, right?
Me: Yes, but I'm n-
Mom: Are you SURE? Because I'd be totally fine with it.
Girlfriend: ...preeetty sure.
Gay Friends: Trust us, he's not.
Mom: Because you'd do very well as a gay guy.
Gay Friends: Yes he would. But he's n-
Me: BUT I'M NOT.
Mom: Sigh. What a waste.

(Later)
Girlfriend: Your mom is weird.

Wouldn't that wording state... a staying in the closet story?
o.O

MMM those new toshiba laptops are pretttty hot! I'm jealous! I just bought a new hp, a few months ago, so I cant really justify buying a new one yet. I'll give it anohter month or too. lol. Damn you intel for coming out with a new processor!

Since we're sharing coming out stories

age 15

me: mom, i'm gay
mom: no, you're confused
me: no, i like guys
mom: no, you're experimenting
me: mom... really... trust me... i can give you details.
mom: you're just confused, everyone experiments..

age 16:

me: mom, you know im gay right
mom: no, you're confused
me: *** here we go again
mom: go again what?
me: *** it, whatever
(left it at that, had "friends" over and she was "oblivious")

age 18:

my aunt: Buzzy, are you gay?
me: yes, did Adrienne (my cousin who i went to HS with) tell you?
my aunt: yes and i kind of always known
me: why haven't you clued my mom in yet?
my aunt: she doesn't know?
me: no... i've told her, but she's stuck in the river the denial.
my aunt: we'll fix that

{later}
my aunt: so sharon (my mom), you know Buzzy's gay right?
me: mom, please tell me you remember me telling you that 3 or more times... and you're not going senile
mom: yes.. i know.. and i remember... and it's taken me a while... i loved your cousin charlie who was gay and he passed away and just don't want to see you leave my life...
me: {hugs mom} i'll always be here
mom: same


so it only took a about 3 1/2 years to come out to my mom... but everyone in my family knows, never hid it. after i came out at 15, i told people and close friends/family members.

though i did recently come out to my 16 year old nephew and he said, yeah we've known for a while. mom told us. so are you and "Starblade" ever going to get married?"

Most of the people close to me know, some of my coworkers do as well. I'm very careful with who I tell. I've been fortunate enough that everyones been very supportive and haven't had any negative reactions yet. I do plan on telling my brother and sister, I'm just not quite sure how to go about it yet.

I think my old boss put it best when she said, "You love who you love and no one can deny you that right."

To this day thats how I view it and its made things much easier to deal with.

God damn you Khimaira. Out of 24 possible pops you choose to force spawn...

This NM is going to be the death of me. When it does pop it better put out a club with seven eyes or I'll /ragequit!

i recently (two or three days ago) told my mom i was gay and she quickly told me not to tell anyone about it, that she would always love me and i was her son, then i had to explain that bring gay didn't mean i want a sex change.


it was a fun night lol

Asura! Where me, Neo, Stoop and Firsk are!

Duh, Phoenix!

just made a huge batch of white kiwi sangria... tomorrow night shall be fun >:D

Absolutely.


Yummmm... {Can I have it?}{Please}

Nice! Sounds like some fun times are going to be had!

Why is it that every time someone fails a mission, BC, or a fight of any sort, the first person people blame is the healer? -_-; It's not *always* our fault.

Hell hath no furry like Citag scourned

Citag's a furry ? <_<

wtf did that noob steal from you ?? ; ;

/sigh

That does seem the case. No matter how amazing the healer is, it always ends up his/her fault. You're never good enough for the 1337 DD.

Considering I'm 99% DD I don't always look at the healer. Usually when someone dies, 70% of the time its out of their own stupidity (call me a pessimist). Rest of the time its an honest mistake.

@Citag:
This guy looks like a real winner. What staff were you referring to?

Drama!!!

Reading this makes my blood boil. I've made this mistake once early on in my FFXI career. And it is now the exact reason why I never let anyone borrow anything of mine unless I expect to not get it back.

I'm sorry that happened, Cit.

My dark staff!

I know its cheap, and its not like i cant replace it, but its not about that. He's a thief and needs to be held responsible for his actions.

Here Cit, this might come in handy:
