writes: I'm a gay man and always have been, when I was in high school I got so badly bullied because of it and got no friends from high school at all. I started working for a company and met this girl, I go out a lot with this girl and she introduced me to the gay scene and I go out with her and a few of her mates.These are really the only friends I have, they introduced me to a few people who work in the gay scene and I was totally loving it. I thought things couldn't get better. I just love being around people who are gay, I just feel like I'm accepted. But now all my friends have got partners and they don't care about going out anymore. I've fallen for a few guys that work in the gay scene and they said how much they liked me. But a couple of days later I found out they were just playing with me. I've never felt so awful, I finally thought I was getting somewhere and I just feel so messed about. What do I do? I've really fallin for these guys and I just feel like my friends just don't care. Should I just give up?

I hate to be harsh... but this is pretty much how it operates... on both sides of the fence (so to speak). You just have to keep shopping around... until you find friends and/or boy friend(s) that are a match.
I know it's hard. Especially when you come from a background where you were bullied and put down. You feel like you're not worthy and such. You just need to work on your self esteem and truly believe that you are worthy and have qualities that others desire.
