I am a self proclaimed "f*g hag." It seems the only guys that are ever around me are gay and as much as I love hanging with my gays, I need a straight boyfriend! Is my overwhelming amount of gay bffs ruining my chances of finding a hetero man?

Yes. There's no other way to put it. And I've spent a few minutes staring at my monitor trying to evaluate if it's really that simple. It seems you are not putting yourself in places and situations that would readily make you available to meet straight men. If every time a single guy sees you, you're behind a fleet of gay men, it is not off-putting so much as just not easily penetrable, shall we say.

I suppose the same could be said about a woman that surrounds herself with straight guys. Groups in general, are difficult organisms to enter. But, if we can take the PC caps off for a moment, the vibe of a single woman flanked by Team Gay isn't exactly a calling card for most straight men. It doesn't make it a bad calling card, but it does make it a potentially Too Tough for Straight Men to Navigate card.

I say, don't burn your hag hat, but for god's sake where another cap here and there. For example, straight guys don't typically hang out at gay bars, piano bars, or Bravo show houseparties. If your calendar is packed inch to inch with non straight guy activities, think about restructuring your planner. Try going out with only one gay pal instead of a cast.

It's like a dude who wants to meet dudes, but only hangs out with lesbians or his grandparents. Sure it's possible, but why not create social opportunities that speak to that need. And, your gays should encourage you, to this end. They want a happy leader don't they?!

I just loved this response, A-dub.

I'm a designer and gay men flock to me like moths to a flame, and are always there with a "well don't YOU look fabulous....are those real Manolo's?" when you need an honest ego boost.

But, you're right, too much fabulosity can be distracting and off-putting to the dating game, especially if many of your conversations with Hot Straighty start with..."OMG...yes, Christmas was great....did you see the window design at Macy's? It was to die for!

The best of both worlds would be a gay friend who has a butchy sports side, and can text you football facts and scores while your date is in the bathroom.

I found dating sites (match, etc) allow you to peruse dating candidates, while not ignoring your friends.

Hags unite!
