writes: My partner left me back in august and i put an advert in my local classifieds for a female friend to go shopping with etc. Paulines reply came a week and a half later and we hit it off straight away. The thing is she told me in the first week that she was gay, i said i wasn't that way inclined in anyway and she just joked that it wasn't an issue and that she didn't have to pounce on every woman she knew. She's very tactile though, she hugs me a lot and has a mischevious streak. I regularily have ice cubes dropped down my back and if she can catch me off guard and hold me down she'll tickle my sides or the bottoms of my feet until i'm in tears from laughing so much. A couple of my ex's, and even my brother, have done stuff like that but when pauline does it i feel awkward. Am i overeacting just because of her sexuality? She's a great friend and i'd love to get these hang up's out of my mind so that i can relax around her more.

 It will take time to get over the fact she is gay, and many different wasy help different people. Just try and forget the fact she isnt straight and like her for who she is, you obviously liked her before you knew so just think about then and try and be like you were then. Hope this helps and just remember it will take time

Sounds like she's just like that. You both were looking for new friends, you met up and get on well. That's a good result! I can understand that you might feel unsure of things but she's been upfront, you get on as individuals and that's what counts. If she is fun and makes you laugh, keep her in your life.

 It must have been hard to have your partner leave you for a woman. But it is good that she came out and didn't hide it forever. When she was hiding it she wasn't herslf and it must have been hard for her to act real while being fake. I don't think you are overreacting. It is alot to get used to and it will take time but give her another chance. Good Luck.
