Testing The Waters

[Stella_Omega]

I think Seamen's last paragraph pretty much sums up his problem. Don't be surprised when he starts whining about man-troll abuse.

I wouldn't get too upset over Stella either. Even though we are not friends by any stretch of the imagination, I think she is simply trying to point out that even some light, well intended, open and honest flirting can be misunderstood. I'd say even more so by the LGBT community cuz when you spend your lives getting rejected by the str8 majority it is often easy to misinterpret things when somebody like yourself reaches out.

Matter of fact, I'd offer the flip side of that caution to YOU. Please don't take it badly if a lesbian rejects you out of hand BECAUSE you were honest about who you are. There are many lesbians, including myself, who have NO desire to have ANYTHING sexually to do with bi or bi curious chicks. That doesn't make either of us bad, wrong or rude. It simply means that I want nothing to do with cock even by proxie.

Good luck on your search, BTW.

Look at you, being all reasonable and shit!

I think Seamen's last paragraph ...

Hmm, no retort or direct confrontation this time? Aren't you gonna tell me where I should go, or whether I should stick something somewhere, or something of the sort

You know, you don't have to be on your guard all the time. No one can hurt you through words lest of course you let them. Your rage will only hurt you. Of course, if lashing out here makes you fell better about yourself, and makes your real life any more bearable at all, go right ahead, by all means. I personally hold no grudge against you. At any rate, anger is better than despair. You can be a now, sure, but don't turn into a bitter old maid in your final years. I wouldn't wish that on my worse enemy. That's the worst thing anybody could be, perhaps, or not. But its definitely not a nice thing to be. From that point of view, it'd be better to take that rage out now than save it for later.

I don't care about any of this; why should I? I wish people were happier, though. As if it weren't enough that existence is meaningless - people go ahead and make it (theirs and other peoples') bitter and miserable too. Not that I am myself happy; far from it. But I wish people would realize how good they have it, and be more thankful. I see people happy and in love and content with their lives, and I'm damn jealous. What I wouldn't give to exchange lives with them.
