Maybe quarantine hasn’t been tough on everyone. One guy says he identifies as bisexual now, after spending quarantine time with a male best friend who became his friend with benefits.
In his Reddit post, this guy explains that he and his new FWB have known each other since middle school, where the FWB was bullied for being gay. But the pair didn’t become friends until high school. “He was really chill and fun to be around,” the guy writes. “I was also semi-popular in my school because I was very good at track. I helped him not be bullied as much, and from then on, we became best friends.”

Their friendship carried into their adults years… but things “changed” between them during quarantine times. “He started to flirt with me, which was whatever, but one night we were watching a movie and he kissed me,” the guy reveals. “I enjoyed it but was confused. We then had sex that night, which was f*cking amazing.”
How about we take this to the next level?
Our newsletter is like a refreshing cocktail (or mocktail) of LGBTQ+ entertainment and pop culture, served up with a side of eye-candy.
How amazing? “I now identify as bisexual,” the guy says.
Now the duo have been sleeping with each other for months, this guy adds, and it’s all been going great. “We talk about everything and play video games, and after, [we] just f*ck,” he says. “It’s been so much better with him because we both have a high sex drive, which makes this even better.”
Better yet, the guy “really love[s] this dude” and “honestly would marry him today” if he could. “He is the best thing to happen thing to happen to me,” he explains. “But we haven’t made it official, and I don’t know how to ask him out. I’ve been trying to ask him, but I just get scared to because I’ve never dated a guy before. What should I do?”

Commenters on the post urged the guy to make his feelings for the FWB known. “That sh*t is so cute,” one commenter wrote. “I would say something like ‘Hey, come on and be my boyfriend already.’”
Another user commented, “Just be direct. Fortune favors the bold, after all.”
And a third commenter wrote, “You said ‘FWB.’ Everything in your post suggests it is a lot more than that. I think you should openly ask him to be your boyfriend.”
The original poster promised to keep his fellow Redditors updated, so follow along on this thread to see how this quarantine romance evolves!

This can’t be true because Graham Gremore didn’t write it!

LMAO!!! When I saw the headline, the first thing I checked was to see if Graham wrote this. Lol.

Graham recycles more than anyone else on the planet

I wish they put the authors name alongside the article titles so I could avoid clicking on Grahams articles. I mean i like a bit of fiction, but he takes the biscuit.

When I see an article by Graham Gremore, it reminds me of a time when I blew some guy and swallowed. I nearly threw up immediately and remember yelling “What the hell was THAT?”. Yeah, that’s how reading a story by Graham Gremore makes me react!

Graham Gremore – crucify him! Crucify him!
P.S. who is Graham Gremore?

You just know these guys skim through tons of Reddit posts every day looking for something that has to do with a “straight” guy hooking up with dudes. And it doesn’t matter how legit it sounds, they gonna post it. I guess this is officially their way to click bait and troll and get in a certain amount of “articles” everyday since endlessly speculating about celebrities’ “sexualities” has officially become un-pc.

Maybe if Queerty commenters ignored these posts, they might stop sharing them and leave them on the sites internal server. They usually do provoke responses, though, which is what the site wants.
Donston
It’s pretty obvious a big reason they keep beating that horse every other day is because the engagement. It’s still really cheap and redundant though. I guess I gave the site more credit.
WashDrySpin
We now come here to respond because it is pathetic that Queerty writers (yeah I laughed) think we are all gay men after straight men…it is 2020 and we are not ashamed of who we are and what we like…
Chrisk
Yes. Young people exploring their sexuality has been going on since the dawn of time. Of coarse now they’re more open to do it.

During my 20s and theirs SO many “straight men” allowed me back door access

*course, not coarse

He was never straight.

Can’t take anything from reddit seriously since there’s a good chance it’s complete fiction
Catholicslutbox
They’re all works of fiction. People are tired of shooting around all day.

If you’re open to be intimate with a man [more than once] you were never straight to begin with.

This REDDITT post reminds me of a time when I routinely trolled Craigslist and posted stories about how I was seduced by one of my older brothers where I asked whether we should tell our parents. I WAS in high school at the time. We never told our parents but we did share the story WHENEVER and WHEREVER we could. Because we could. And because it gave readers a reason to masturbate. You’re welcome.
rickywintour
I hope your older brother wasn’t blood related to you. If he was I suggest you get some therapy. That’s disgusting and you should be ashamed of yourself.
atlpat
Ignore criticism. If you and you’re brother are okay with it, then it’s nobody’s business. My brothers hated me and getting hit a lot was no fun.
dhmonarch89
“honestly would marry him today” if he could. Ah…you can, it is legal.
ShiningSex
You weren’t straight. Bi maybe but not straight. Get that straight. Stupid story.
sfhairy
So glad I had my boots on for this article. The sh*t got real deep.

Please stop using the word “Straight” when what you mean is “Closeted”.
