That's kind of sad.
For both parties.
Right?
Gee I love you two.
Obviously I know nothing about the guy's relationship, but that's a huge red flag to me. That said, who knows, they may have a very loving, healthy and stable relationship, and this is just a jokey gripe she makes for funsies.
You mean painfully, with jerky twitches, difficulty swallowing and ultimate brain death?
SICK! Super happy for you my dude! Was worried with what you'd said, but, obviously, that's a single sentence.
It's bisad.

I understand that I know nothing of your life. And I'm sure it's going fine. But the way you're framing it while defending the relationship seems like you need to have a bit more of a talk about it.
as long as you're feeling settled-for, that's what counts
My aunt once told my (then) 10 year old sister to "just marry a man you can stand". We keep wondering when aunt Wendy is going to kill her husband. He's a dick.
My uncle in law married the first woman who would have him. He didn’t think long or hard about it, just thought that to be the most expedient and simple. Thought that all women were good and kind and reasonable people like his mother and sisters.
She’s been a complete demon to him, totally solipsistic and money-obsessed, and is not only working him into an early grave but is also stressing him out such that he looks like he’s in his late-eighties. He’s only 64.
Never took to the idea of sex outside of marriage or an LTR (= min. 6 months, usually 12 or more), but daaaaaang… people need to percolate more before filtering down into a cup.
that's gonna be a fun nursing home confession one day
I have a bi ex who broke up with me because she knew her lesbian friend group would ostracize her for dating a man. The queer community can be incredibly discriminatory against the bi part of itself
It's always been the case unfortunately. Biphobia is as rampant among the LGBT community as homophobia is in the world at large. All the things that homophobes do to gay men, they'll happily turn around and do to bi men.
Or the trans part of itself. Or the questioning part of itself. Or probably the lesbian and gay parts, let alone the +. It sucks, but it turns out queer folks are just, well... Folks. So we gotta work on that.
sad to see that the scene from chasing amy still rings true
Uh. I hope she isn't using that particular word when talking about you friend.
