Everyone’s out and about. There’s an energy this...

I identify as queer and really enjoy being with women. I have been with women sexually and dated a few of them, but I've always had a hard time with this idea that I "read" as straight. Several of my close women friends have expressed similar sentiments to me.

Reader Question: I role play through Facebook and met a guy. I kind of joked around when I got to know him a little more by saying he was the "perfect guy" and I was going to "steal him."

When it comes to attraction, many times we can forget that attraction can be simple. In terms of most guys, they usually overthink and try to guide interactions step by step to get to a goal they have in mind. That’s definitely a good intention.
