I'd like to have a conversation, if you don't mind...
I'm only posting this here because there isn't a corresponding sub-forum for what's on my mind, I looked.
Actually, there is one, but I'm not sure that it's appropriate for me to enter that space with this concern. Either way, it's about me. Moreover, it's about perceptions about me by others. So, if you don't want to be bothered, I understand. However, I'd be willing to take it to DU Mail, if that's a preference. I'm serious.

3. It's not about anyone else on DU
It's just about be.
Trust me, this is not gossip at all. Merely something about myself that I want to ask and I'm not really sure, how to process it. |

9. My first impression is that Sugar Beats
comes across as difficult to communicate with openly.
They seem to think they know more about you than you do. |

12. I was a little confused by the "Knock it off tweet."
I was wondering if there was anything that I posted there that was inappropriate

15. He's yankin' your chain
by obliquely accusing you of being gay. Of course you know that and you're trying to get him to admit to it.
You've wasted enough time on that troll. As for the question in the OP: you're okay by me. I like your posts and think they are interesting. |

18. If that person had accused me of being gay...
All I would have said is that I'm actually not gay, but... I'd just ask them if I should be offended by and accusation of being gay and why. Then I'd retweet their accusations to my gay cousin and we'd both have a laugh about it.

25. I've had similar conversations... A variety of different topics but the same pattern
IRL, on twitter, on gaming forums I participate in and even right here on DU... Today
![]() It used to be almost an obsession for me to figure out WTF was going on but I now try to walk away if the person does not want to just spill it and be plain in a post or two. You're a good egg, try not to worry about internet people being a little crazy. |

27. I think you're being trolled by a self important faux smart ass.
S/he isn't worth your time or attention. You're right; attraction is highly subjective.
Me, I like British posh. I loved and married a man who was anything but. |

13. You have been pre-judged by an idiot troll.
That's my two cents. As for the picture of the guy - I have no idea what that's about. At all.

21. It's not you
There are people who bet on a horse if a certain hockey moves the crop to the other hand, or tell you they're saying okay with the hand signals. So the reptilian mind sees the shape of female anatomy for an instant and fear for their own manhood. He's being stupid.

transparent. You got baited by an asshole and you treated him better that he deserved. I wish there were more of you!
