“I Met A Pastor Online & I’ve Learned He’s Married & Does This All The Time”

Dear Gay Best Friend,

I have a pastor question, too. I liked your answers. So, I thought, ok, I will try.

Well, come to find out, it was all a big joke

When “I’m Just Being Honest” Is Too Honest & A Lame Cop Out

When “I’m Just Being Honest”  Is Too Honest & A Lame Cop Out

I am so exhausted by statements like, “I’m just being honest”, “I’m keeping it real” and “you know I keep it 100” because 90% of the time it is an excuse to say some really dumb ish out of your mouth and then abandon all personal accountability for the nonsense.

“My Man Is On Porn & Dating Websites All Day & It Bothers Me”

Dear Gay Best Friend,

My man and I have a wonderful relationship. We both have fantastic jobs. He is great with my and his own children (from previous marriages), and he takes good care of me and our household with no problem. We attend church, many social functions, go out on date nights, travel, and get along great. A woman could not ask for a better partner and our life together could not get any better. We have discussed marriage,

“Should I Ignore The 3 Day Rule & Invite Him To Hang Out?”

Dear Gay Best Friend,

I met this guy “Robert” at a bar on a Friday. We exchanged numbers and planned to hang out the next day because I was headed off to another place to meet up with friends. However (and probably unfortunately) I ended up seeing him after the bars closed as I was walking my friend home. His friend and him ended up walking us to her

Dear Gay Best Friend,

Ok, I’m a Gemini so excuse the indecisiveness. My dilemma: stay or go. Here are the facts:

I’ve been “seeing” dude for almost a year. Early on learned he wasn’t relationship material because he’s in love with himself. Literally.

In an informal IHop round table discussion on my recent and way-too-short trip to the Big Apple for the Battle of The Sexes event a group of us got into it about double standards.
