LOL... not my friend... but hypothetically, it could happen. Because you guys would know each other for so long, they might know your preference, but, love (edit: infatuation) is a powerful thing, regardless of preferences.

Stop being such a wuss. He's saying being hit on by a homo disgusts him. Me too. Deal with it.

It depends on how attracted I am to her... if the person is a friend, of course I'd still be her friend (regardless of whether or not anything ended up happening). And yes, the activities would remain the same.
I can see how it might be awkward for a straight guy, though...
Good luck, I hope you remember what's most important to you, and that if your friend is a true friend, he'll respect your feelings and resume a regular friendship.

If it is someone I've been friends with for a while and they are stupid enough to be flirting with me, then I'd be a little angry. I mean, I'd even be miffed if one of my FEMALE friends just all of the sudden starts being blatently obvious about an attraction to me that they've recently found and didn't bother just telling me about it instead of throwing themselves at me.
When you are good enough friends with someone to call an actual friend, there are boundries you don't just randomly cross because you can't contain your hormones. If someone doesn't have the decency to just tell you how they feel about you instead of just flirting and throwing themselves at you, then they are just being rude. Especially if they are doing it in front of other people. Male or Female... it doesn't matter.
Now if they didn't know you, it's a different matter.
In either case, what would I do? Well, I'd just flat out tell them I'm not interested and that I'm not gay. That's the truth, if they weren't prepared to hear the worst (worst according to them), then they could use the reality check. I mean, what are you gonna do, let them down easy by saying "Oh, I don't quite feel that way about you, but if I ever decide to be gay I'll let you be the first to know!" Aside from that, tell them you feel uncomfortable with them acting that way towards you. They may not realize the way they are acting and might go hit on the next person without thinking twice. Man or Woman, sometimes hitting on someone can cause that person to feel uncomfortable.
Unfortunately for the homosexual population of the world... you are deviant and because of that people are offended when you throw homosexuality in their face. Don't get me wrong, I'm not criticizing anyon'e sexuality, but there is a matter of respect for other people and if you aren't sure, then you should take the time to ask rather than unknowingly offend someone.

Lead him on for the rest of the night, talk to him a lot, get free drinks out of him for my buddy and I, ask for his phone number, get his work schedule on the back of a napkin, then give my buddy's number when he asks for mine, then promise to see him again.
As long as you're clear (but tactful) it shouldn't be a problem. Don't alienate them or give them false hope.

Well obviously I'd make it clear that I'm not interested (that should have been anyway - why does he think you are gay?), secondly I have to admit it would be hard to stay friends with a guy who is dreaming about sticking it in my rear. I really have nothing against homosexuals, but that would be uncomfortable for me.

You should tell them your honest opinion...I am assuming you are still in the closet...but it's ok for you to make a move...think of this as your opportunity.
My reaction would be to joke back if it's just flirting type stuff....if it's serious I'd just let them know I am straight....I wouldn't shun them or anything stupid, I mean hell it's sort of a complement.

This actually happened to my uncle. He and his friend were best friends since high school. They went through the army together and everything.
They were roommates for like 4 years after the army, and then he walked in to see his friend with another guy... There was too much discomfort after that and they drifted apart. The friend had valued their friendship so much he was afraid to come out of the closet...

I'd say thanks, but i'm married. Wouldn't stop me from being friends though... big deal... just don't grab my ass... (unless I ask first, of course... )
