Youve got problems, Ive got advice.
This advice isnt sugar-coatedin fact, its sugar-free, and may even be a little bitter.
Welcome to Tough Love.
This week we have a man who fell for his lesbian friend.
Oh, and theyre new roommates!
I simply want to give you the tools you should probably enrich your damn lives.
If for whatever reason you dont like my advice, feel free tofile a formal complaint here.
Now then, lets get on with it.
It was then she came out to me and told me she was gay.
Is there something I should be doing?
Are my expectations just unrealistic?
Am I just being impatient and time will sort this out in the future?
Thats probably why she agreed to it in the first place.
Shes gay because she is.
It has absolutely nothing to do with you in the slightest!
Zero, zilch, nada, goose egg!
If thats not it, youre in a situation youll just have to wait out.
Heres the hard truth (you ready?
): you may always be attracted to her.
That might not ever go away.
But you cant be with her Frustrated Fella, and theres no need to be frustrated with yourself.
This was all a basic misunderstanding that is getting blown out of proportion by your emotions, dude.
Remember,this is probably super weird for her too.
I mean, of course shes going to withdraw if youre being all sad and pining around her!
Start by getting your relationship back to normal as best you might.
The other thing you might do is jump back into the dating pool.
If you want to move on, you kind of need to move on, you know?
Your friend might feel less awkward with you if she sees you going on dates.
Youll be fineshes not the one.
If she was, she wouldnt be a lesbian.
