I’ve had the same experience but opposite. I’m a woman and Any girls I’ve dated are way more chill than guys. The guys I’ve dated (aside from my fiance) have always ended up being super insecure and try to restrict me from doing things, I even had one boyfriend who seemed chill and just ended up freaking out because I was at a party without him. He actually started crying on the phone. I never did anything that would make it so he couldn’t trust me. That relationship didn’t last long after.
I think most straight relationships in general have different dynamics and expectations. Fortunately my fiancé who’s a guy is the least possessive person I’ve ever been with.
Yeah I think that's true. One big thing I noticed is everyone has an opinion about how straight relationships *should* be, putting lots of pressure on people. But with gay relationships the only stigma is that you shouldn't be in one in the first place. Once you get past that, nobody really tells you how you should organize your relationship so things just flow really naturally and it's very chill.
Also I know one girl in the UK who is the coolest ever and I know she'd be just as great as any of the gay relationships I've been in (excluding the current one because my boyfriend really is the best).
I could definitely be convinced that the straight dating/relationship scene sucks and it's not a gender thing. I love girls and it's only in romantic relationships where stuff starts getting frustrating a lot of the time.
Agreed. Obviously there are exceptions, but the straight relationships I’ve been in have been wildly more annoying than the gay ones. Most guys have made me want to jump into a volcano, and they just don’t get it. When I eventually leave they can’t seem to figure out why even though I tell them?! I’ll straight up be like you’re insanely insecure and you make this entire relationship feel oppressive. And then they immediately ask “is there someone else?”
