And even if they are supported in their suspicion, why ask if you don't wanna get romantic with them?
And if you are that sure anyway no need to ask, obviously you weren't just quite sure so you had to check.
I think the best is to just start owning it but I guess it's just much better to do that in your own terms and mention it when YOU want and not when pushed.
It makes you feel like you were trying to be "deceptive" or "pass for straight" if they ask u, when rly you never did either. Can ppl not do them without needing to be interrogated or clarify for ppl?
I don't have a problem with people thinking or speculating I'm gay. It's them knowing for sure - because I had to confirm it - that annoys me. It makes me more vulnerable.
It's like when a celeb comments a rumor in public it then becomes fair game for everyone.
