So, What Happened When a Straight Guy Went on a Date With a Gay Man He Met on the Subway..?

A little backstory first. I did a post on Wednesday about a straight guy accepted a date with a gay man he met on the subway.

Reddit user Wellhowaboutthat13 had a chance meeting with a guy at a train station that confused and excited him.

He wrote:

“I don’t know where exactly to post this. I’m a traditionally heterosexual guy, only dated and slept with women. My porn is almost exclusively lesbian/heterosexual. I haven’t really wondered what it’s like to experiment with a man before, although like everyone I’ve run it through my mind a couple times to see how it feels.“

Long story, short, they flirted and the straight guy was freaked out but excited,

“‘We exchange phone numbers, and have really light and vibrant conversation the whole way to my stop. I get off and he says ‘text me, I’m looking forward to Friday!‘

I have no idea what this means for me or my sexuality, but I’m a little nervous and kind of pumped for possibly a new chapter in my life. I’ve been thinking about it, and I would be totally open to dating and falling in love with a man, if there’s a connection like this. I just never knew that I was capable of having one. men were always just buddies to me, you know?

I’m really excited, but also very confused. Why didn’t I ever really have gay thoughts before? Is this how people find out they’re into their own gender?“

In subsequent posts, the Redditor said he admitted to the guy over text about his lack of knowledge in the male-to-male department.

“He said not to worry about it, and that there’s no pressure. He just wants to see me again, and I feel the same, and we’ll see if there’s something there tonight!“

So, what happened on the date? The guy didn’t post the results of his “experiment” for a while but finally this,

“Didn’t go so well. I’m not hacked to pieces, don’t worry. He was just pretty aggressive and it made me uncomfortable, so it didn’t go anywhere. Sorry to disappoint!

I’m okay. But I didn’t want to update because it’s not a great ending. He was pretty sexually aggressive and it was too much for me, so I got out of the situation and cut contact. Sorry to disappoint, but hope this satisfies the curiosity.“
