OK, here goes...
I am really lonely. It's been 8 years since I was last in a relationship. The problem is that although I get on well with women, and they often think I am 'lovely', I seem to lack some essential element of hetero sex appeal. When I ask women out it always goes pear-shaped (and they never ask me out).
The funny thing is that gay men find me really attractive. It would be easier to buy the whole 'your self-esteem is too low' explanation if it wasn't for the fact that I have men swarming round me like flies. I'm finding it hard to avoid coming to the conclusion that gay men just simply value my qualities more than women do!
So... the big question... maybe I should actually think about going out with a guy? I'm not sexually attracted to men, but I am dog tired of being lonely. My friend has made it clear he 'likes' me, I really like him (in a non-sexual way) and he is extremely sweet. At this point I am grateful for the attention.
Worth a try, or asking for trouble?
