I may get a lot of flack for this!

I am used to getting flack. I been here since 2013 except it was EP then. The people who tried to shoot me out of the sky have long gone and I am still here.
About me first. I am Blodyn. I am a girl. I do not have a boyfriend but would love to have one. I think that means I am straight.
I have friends who are gay. They are friends. Please do not read any thing into that. Friends I speak to lots. Friends I would do anything for and they would for me. Friends.
With me so far? Well there are three types of men who contact me here in SW. Men who want to know what knickers I am wearing. Mostly middle aged. May already have a wife or partner.
Secondly, younger men who know to just be friends. And many older men are like that. Maybe happy with their partners.
Thirdly gay men. My best friend on this site is gay. We have talked for years. Not one hint of sexual attraction. We chatter away as friends. He is my oldest friend. But he feels unwelcome on this site. I don't know what makes people gay but I am prepared to accept that there is a gender spectrum and that not everyone fits neatly into the slots of being girl or boy.
It seems to me that many people just reject people for being lesbian, gay, bisexual or transgender because they are different. Not because they have thought about why this may be. And why are transgender people listed with LGB anyway. What's it got to do with it.
Before I wax too lyrical, just accept people for who they are. Please. If you can't, please do a bit of research before you reject people for their gender, their colour, their age or for any other way they are different to you.

Blodyn - so, I confused over what you are asking.

I see you would like a boyfriend and not having luck here on SW.
And, I see you have a gay freind here that is not accepted by everyone.

I'd give up finding a boyfriend here on SW. Boyfriends and girlfriends I think are more like in person interactions. I know I'm way older than you, but even with the age gap, I feel comfortable in advising for an in person boyfriend.

For your gay friend - and all people in fact I'm with Dr. King; judge people for the content of their character - period.

Best of luck.

@Budwick I don't think you have really read my post carefully. I wrote it carefully. There was so much at stake. Please take time to read it carefully before you reply next time.

@Budwick Thank you. Sounds as if you read it this time! x

@Blodyn No, I didn't bother.
And, I wished you good luck the first time.
When you brushed me off,
I found I didn't really care enough to dig any further.

Best of luck.
