So here's my story: http://www.loveshack.org/forums/t243645/

 

And here's the update... I went out for dinner with him and sort of went for a kiss. He seemed so into me! But it turns out he only wants to be friends! He did the portrait because he always thought I'm a sweet girl but had no romantic intentions.

 

This is one disappointment I'll have a hard time dealing with.

OMG!!! :eek:

 

I was following your thread & not for a single second did I ever think that he was not into you. I am completely baffled. I don't go out to dinner alone with any of my platonic friends. Usually, we drink cheap beer & go to a movie or see a show.

 

I look forward to what the men on the board have to say.

Wow. I must say I'm very surprised about this one.

 

Guess some men can do genuinely nice things for a woman and not have love on his mind after all.

He is probably just lonely and wants some company.

 

Sometimes when Im lonely I like to ask a female friend to go out. Going out with a female just feels different. It is more relaxed than with a male friend.

I don't think straight men behave like that with female friends. Ya follow?

Implying the guy is gay is kind of rude, there's quite enough of that going on in hen parties everywhere whenever a man doesn't jump a woman on the spot who shows any interest in him.

 

Funny story, was sitting around with female friends fairly recently and they start to go on about how gay a guy is who didn't follow through with one of the women at the table. I chime in "he's not gay," they all bandwagon me with "you don't know, just because he is your friend," I repeat, "he's not gay, and I know that indisputably." Well now their dander is up and they are getting in my face, "SO MR. MAN HOW DO YOU KNOW SO INDISPUTABLY?" and I told them, "I have been to strip clubs 3 times in the last two years with friends, each and every time, we have run into him out in the strip bars... BY HIMSELF. Gay men don't -live- in titty bars like that, and if they did go to one, it damn sure wouldn't be alone."

 

They all shut up. :laugh:

 

He may very well be gay, but nothing in OP's threads suggests that, and just because he gave OP LJBF doesn't say anything about his preferences.
