as a woman, would you consider a gay man to be your best friend?

I'm just curious. As a woman, would you ever consider a gay man to be your best friend? Straight men usually just want to sleep with me and women don't always like me. So I was thinking a gay man would make the perfect best friend for me. There's no sexual pressure and no jealousy or judgement.

You should be posting this under "Ask a girl".

Try doing a thread search for "Fag Hag".

ABSOLUTELY!!
One of my best friends is gay,& we've been friends since childhood..
He's gay & always wants the best for me & has given me such gr8 advice over the years.....he 'gets' me......and,of course,there's no agenda cos hes gay!.
So,our friendship is very pure,honest & uncomplicated.
He's the best ! (we're always there for each other--im very lucky)

You have to first figure out why most women don't like you. Then you have to get over yourself. Most men do NOT want to sleep with you. You would just like to think that they do. And thirdly, why would a gay man want to be your friend?

I've had some very good lesbian friends over the years, and the answer is yes.

For a guy it tends to work out better than women though.

Men see a single woman with a man and they think they're a couple, women see a woman with a single man and they view it a both a challenge and a sign that he's not a total a**hat to women - go figure.

Gee,Sam,why have you adopted an 'attitude' towards the Op??
I think she was asking a very valid Q.....
If you don't know her personally, you don't know her, or, what her experiences have been with women & men.........true?

Yes, without a doubt.
One of my closest friends is gay.
It's like having the best of both worlds, as you get a girl-friend like friendship and a blunt honest man's opinion.
He is able to enlighten me from a man's logical perspective as well as to empathize with a woman's emotional one.
He is the best shopping buddy.
He's got nothing to lose, so will always state the truth, but never in a hurtful judgemental manner..
He has no qualms saying 'YES it does make your arse look big' or 'That colour looks fabulous on you !!!' and I have never once questioned his sincerity.
Of anyone that I have encountered, he has the most incredible sense of humour.
An outing with him is never dull.

Good choice. My very best friend is a gay man. Our friendship is exactly what a friend should be. It has been built over 11 years. No pressure and I always know he is honest with me.

I have always had gay friends. Not to say they have been my BEST friend, but they were wonderful caring friends. But would I consider it....YES..........I have always had better friendships with men then most women.

well it seems like you want to go to a gay bar and pick up a best friend lol.....it doesn't really work that way..but who knows.
One of my best friends is gay.....but we were friends since highschool, had similar interests ect....became friends the normal way....the fact that he is or isn't gay wasn't an issue....when he wasn't out of the closet he was straight to me.....lol I certianly wasn't attracted to him ever....and then I was the one who helped him when he came out to his other friends....when his parents found out by accident..and when he got married. (to a great man)...

If you are having problems finding a friend....ask yourself why? Would you be your own friend? Because you still have to be a good friend to a gay best friend like you would to a best guy friend or a best girl friend.

One of my closest friends growing up was gay and a few more as I got older - nothing wrong with someone whos orientation is not your own. Frankly they were the best friends a girl could have!!

I have had a great male friend for the last 25 years. We met in high school and have been good friends ever since. I hate the term FAG HAG....My friend calls me his "Fairy Princess" LOL

I have and have had numerous gay friends - both men and women - and I have found that having a gay male best friend is AWESOME. But I didn't go out LOOKING to make a gay best friend, lol...it just happened.

I think it's totally possible. I find that sometimes women, even those who you are friendly with and seem to be your friend are still competitive and not that sympathetic. A gay man really has nothing to compete with you about! I want support and empathy in a friendship, as well as the opportunity to offer the same...so I don't see a problem with this at all.

would you ever consider a gay man to be your best friend?

Absolutely!!
My best friend is a gay guy, and he is such a funny guy!
i socialise with him because all my straight friends are settled, so we hit the gay spots at the weekends, no drunken guys hitting on me
only the ladies! (joke)

i've always had gay men as friends. you really can't avoid it in the dance world. they love to go shoe shopping. they tell me when my hair looks stupid. their lives don't revolve around football. and they crack me up.

but a maladjusted gay man can be as much of a pain in the *ss as anyone else.

gay men do make very good friends..

i understand what u mean about the "suppose to be straight" men only wantin sex most of them..so true you could never have a real true friendship with somebody who only wants to f u c k you an dump you.. an some women not all do have that "catty" personality an can be hard to get along with..

i have 2 male friends who are gay i have known them both for over 11years..ones a drag queen an you should see how the "suppose to be straight single an married men hit on him an wanna f u c k an date him"

an i have another whos bi but isn't a drag queen just a regular masculine man acting an dressin but dates men an women..

sweety you can learn alot especially when a group of gay men start talkin an dishin the real dirt...about "life" love life men an dating an relationships...

So you would actually calculate who should be your friend on a scientific basis?

i would be honoured for a gay man to be my friend because they have all the knowledge of what guys are and can be like, yet have that extra bit that keeps them the best girls friend

you can't just go pick up a gay man to be your best friend haha but sure if you find a guy who you really get along with and he happens to be gay then go wild! most of my guy friends are gay but that's mostly because i met one and he introduced me to the rest... we don't do any of the stereotype gay friend stuff though, there's no shopping or anything... mostly we swing dance and **** about everyone else in the vicinity and their love handles... ahhh life....
good luck on your venture
