Gay couples, what's a relationship problem you've run in to that straight couples don't have to deal with?


  1. "So, do I tell them we're just roommates, or friends, or boyfriends?"

  2. My ex and I wore the same size clothes. Whether or not we should make a habit of wearing each others' stuff was sometimes a contentious question.

  3. "So who's the woman?" We're gay. There's no woman. That's the point. EDIT: for all of those who are confused by my username, I’m bi. I hope this clears everything up.

  4. If you're dating someone who isn't "out", it can be awkward and makes your relationship feel superficial. When I was with my last boyfriend we had to pretend to be best friends around his family. The only plus side was that we were allowed to have sleep overs during this time. The minute he came out, no more sleepovers for me.

  6. When you have two cats, and she has three cats, then you move in together and *boom*, you're now crazy cat ladies.

  7. Being "behind" your straight peers in regards to relationship experience after years of being in the closet and a few years of not really accepting myself. It can feel like everyone else around you is settling down, and you're just figuring out what you want in a LTR. Also finding some solution to getting lube on the sheets, because otherwise you *will* get lube on the sheets.

  8. Back to back periods ruining chances of sex for 2 weeks instead of just one.

  9. My friend and his boyfriend constantly had to worry about looking like a couple when we left the country. They rarely held hands when we were on vacation, except maybe in the resort.

  10. If we have kids, which of us gets to be dad 1? I mean, if our kids just say "hey, dad!" It's going to get confusing which one they mean. Should they call us by our first names? Can I be "papa" and my husband "dad?" I dunno.
