Don't post in this thread to say "gay gamers are like everyone else, why do they have a special thread?" It is something that has been posted numerous times, and this isn't the place for that discussion.

For regular posters, don't quote the trolls.

Hard to advise if I haven't heard the whine myself. Hm, how close are you? Does he know you're gay? If so, you could jovially drop such an offer when you get drunk and hang out just to test the waters and gauge his reaction. Whether you really go for it while being inebriated (and knowing it will not be a big deal when you have sobered up), is then entirely your call.

Oh he knows I'm gay. In fact, when I told him he spent several days just being honored that I would trust him with that secret (I'm still not full blown out of the closet).

As far as the whining...when your straight friend yells at the top of his lungs "I'm just so horny!!" Things can get confusing for me. I don't just wanna drop an offer cause we both come from extremely conservative worlds. I don't wanna make him uncomfortable.

I think it's really going to come down to bedtime. If he's in bed next to me and he's horny, we'll see where things go. I just need the mental fortitude to take things as they come and not immediately shove his dick down my throat.

Oh, and we're incredibly close. He feels so comfortable around me that he thinks it's ok to have sex with his girlfriend with me in the room...not to mention all the affection I get when we're beer pong partners

Well, if you're that close, you might as well be rather blunt the next time he yells that: "Ok, so you're horny. You keep letting me know. You know that I am gay. You know you're attractive to me, to the point that I could just go on my knees right now. -- What are you trying to tell me, roomie? <insert casual laugh>" Along these lines haha...

That's what I plan to do. I just want to open it up to the scrutiny of my fellows in this thread to make sure I'm not just being a hormone driven retard.

And I still have two weeks, so I have plenty of time for yall to either berate of congratulate me. I'm just...nervous about this cause this dude is really hot and he's important to me.

I'm kind of in the same position as you Klondikebar...my best friend/ex every time I hang out with him he talks about how horny he is cause him and his girl friend are at different schools. I just want to be like "I can fix that for you..." but I just don't want that chance of awkwardness present. (Also I haven't exactly told him I still have feelin's for him or even men, he's like the only person who doesn't know that I'm gay/bi as far as my actual friends go >.<)
If you're homophobic, you're probably ugly, so don't worry about a gay guy coming onto you. - jarrydesque

Well Troxle, I think this can sorta be aggregated into a "how do we deal with our horny straight friends?"

It's more complicated than we'd like to admit cause we gotta emphasize the horny part. Things change when a guy is horny but they change again when his hormones are gone. How do we ride that wave? Is there a way to have our cake and eat it too or do we just need to protect our platonic relationships?

Do we have to bring straight people into this thread to answer our questions?

Well, playing it jokingly in a casual situation to test the waters I found always leaves room to retreat and not get burned. After all, a possible enraged reaction is usually only the result of someone feeling cornered without subliminally allowing him a way out of the perceived possibility of being gay as well. Which is also the reason why this would never work if there is a third person present.

I guess you just need to know how to play your hand.

That might be a good idea. Bring on the horny straight people to answer our questions!

But yeah...loss versus benefits, loss wins out and I don't go for it...but I do need to sit down with him one day and just talk to him about it, but yeah...workin' my way up to that lol!

Though I don't post much in the thread I am an avid reader and felt I should weigh in on the current topic :D. I actually have a straight friend who I mess around with and it's been an ongoing thing for quite awhile now. As Troxle said you kind of have to weigh the benefits and the downsides and I just thought I would give my take. The benefits of my situation are that I have a hot friend to get off with, but as time goes on the downsides have weighed heavier on my mind. Now I feel like its no longer a friendship, I'm just someone he uses to get off then leave. Once you cross that boundary you have to realize that things will not go back to how they are now. At first it was enjoyable sure, but now I kind of wish I hadn't crossed that boundary. I think I may have went into the situation wanting more than I knew I would ever get. I had a good relationship and figured Id get the best of both worlds and get the good friend with the hot fling. But I know I can never have a real emotional relationship with my straight friend which is what I think I wanted in the first place, aside from the physical part.

Pretty sure that was a mess of a post, tried to post how I felt but as you can tell it gets all complicated -_-. Just realize that if you like your friendship with him now then you should not do anything because once you do the relationship changes completely.

Thanks for the warnin' and that was my biggest fear and I knew deep, deep, deep down it was true, kind of why I've been avoidin' the issue of talkin' to him. But I still want to talk to him about it as somethin', if it happens at all, is not an all the time thing. Honestly I don't mind just givin' a blow job to give one, as far as sex go, I'd rather just cuddle. Don't get me wrong, sex is great, but I prefer emotional attachment. But I don't know exactly how to address it with him, so I'll keep puttin' it off.

On a side note...we need to get a group of us diamond level players, and even platinum/masters if they so desire, and start practicin' together! I know Roe is havin' major issues with Protoss and I'm havin' major issues with Terran. I can give people my PvP build order win too (I'm like 13-2 PvP this season...) or you can ask Always for the link. My Protoss versus Zerg is hit or miss dependin' on how much economy they blindly sacrifice. I can play all three races at a mid-high diamond level so I can help people with any match up they need! :D

Also another side note, who all is goin' to MLGs this year? I know I'm definitely goin' to Columbus and Raleigh for sure. Might make Dallas and Orlando, probably won't make Anaheim, and unsure about Providence. (This is all assumin' they keep the same venues or venues relatively close...say instead of Providence they go to New York City, or instead of Raleigh they go to Washington DC).

Do share your PvP build - I've been quite one dimensional in PvP this season, but for a change I'm really enjoying it. I've been using this build. I must be one of the very few on ladder to be using it as not many people know how to deal with it.

The nice thing about using one build religiously (especially in such a wildly random match up) is that it gives you a bit of stability in that you know what the common reactions are and can ensure that whatever they do, plays into your hands.

For example - A common reaction after seeing your 10 gate is for them to try a defensive 4 gate (the common expectation is that you're going fast 4 gate as well) which is fairly useless because you only have 2 gates and your attack hits before their warpgate finishes, leaving them with 4 useless gates and hopefully less Probes.

I follow up (even while still attacking) with a Robo and a third gate as I know that after you do eco damage and they use 4 gates they often counter attack. This allows you to get a warp prism and drop them while they are out of their base.

If they don't counter attack you expand to try and force them out of their base. If they do expand, I like to drop the mineral line and then attack from the front to kill/cancel the nexus while FFing the ramp.

The only things I have trouble holding is the 2 Colossus one base timing - I think the best way to stop this is to use Warp Prism Immortals, but only got it right once or twice. Also, 2 Proxy Gates is also a build order win as far as I can tell. You scout very late (with less Probes you need every mineral up until your Cyber is down) and even if you scout the proxy location (which you will have to do as Zealots will be in your base by the time you find their base) you've already put down your Cyber and have been mining gas for a while so you're very short on minerals.

This build also blind counters cannon rushes, which is nice because I fail so hard against them.

In terms of directly combating this build at the most important timing, the only build that really stands a chance is a 3 Stalker rush but it is extremely touch and go and they have to micro very carefully.

Edit: I realize that my light introduction to the build went a bit beyond what I was intending so I'll add:

tl;dr An interesting, aggressive PvP build.

He is also bilingual, and has a sexy accent.

I'm up for practicing together with everyone, just drop me a note whoever is interested when I'm online. My weakest is PvP too . On the note about MLG heck yes I'm going to Columbus.

If they have an MLG in Orlando, my Pokemon training ass will be there harder than a Metapod v. Metapod battle on a Summer's day.

I gotta start saving some serious money, though. I wish I could get money off my Pokemon battling skill. I'd be set for life.

jarrydesque this is the build I use: Korean 4 Warpgate All In (vs. Protoss)

Its a 10 pylon 10 gate. You only chrono the Nexus once and save the rest for wargate, you'll be able to chrono it from start to finish and if you don't miss a chrono you get ~5:10 warpgate completion (which is faster than any safe defensive 4 gate by almost 30-45 seconds). If you get really lucky with the early scout, you can sneak a pylon in their base, I've gotten really good at this, even with a probe followin' me I've managed a few times to hide a pylon, especially when they send a zealot after me instead of the probe (bein' its slower its easier to slip away for the second needed to hide)

Sneak a pylon in his base? What are you talking about... The point is you make like 4 pylons in his base right in his face and he can't kill them all.

I do that if I can't get a hidden pylon. But 9/10 games I get a hidden pylon. And when I don't I just drop 3. I do both styles but hidden is by far better than mass droppin'.

Ok :/ I guess at the level I play at anyway, hiding a pylon in someone's base is a monumentally slim chance.
