Should I feel uncomfortable? I have to share an office with a lesbian.? |
I have to share my office with a lesbian starting next week, I am not bi-curious, should I feel unconfortable? What if she hits on me? You're so weird. Don't flatter yourself honey. It would be just as inappropriate (and probably less likely) as if a heterosexual male in your office started hitting on you. I would assume if she is profession about he job, which she should be, there shouldnt be an issue. If one arises, then you would treat it as you should any sexual harassment in the work place. I wouldnt be bias and look for reasons or assume something is going to happen just because of her sexual preference though. Worry more about your job and not whos gonna hit on you while youre there.. Are you serious? It's just like sharing an office with a guy, I'm sure she will keep it professional. You need to get over your homophobia鈾?/div> No. She should feel uncomfortable because she has to share an office with a WACKO. The real question is should SHE feel comfortable with YOU? She's no more likely to hit on you than guys are. As long as you don't send her mixed messages, you likely won't have a problem. If she does hit on you, just let her know you're heterosexual. Do you hit on everyman that walk the earth, or do you discriminate? same thing with lesbians, they don't like "every woman" so don't flatter your self, she'll probably pay no attention to you at all. Oh Please. You won't have to worry about her hitting on you but you may have to worry about her filing a discrimination charge. a man wouldnt seriously hit on a lesbian if he knew she was a lez right? of course not. so a lesbian wouldnt hit on a straight girl once she knew she was straight. especially since you appear to be homophobic I assume you're female? Why is this any different than sharing your office with a guy you despise, who might hit on you. Don't be rude, but if she makes you that uncomfortable, just try to avoid talking to her. If she hits on you (which I doubt she will if you're giving off very negative vibes) then just calmly tell her that you aren't interested, and would appreciate it if she refrained from that sort of behavior. However, you could try to become friends, and you may be surprised at how little difference there is between a lesbian friend, and a straight friend. I guess you couldn't check out guys together... contrary to popular belief, gay/bi/lesbians are not just wild animals running around looking for sex. Everyone always acts like if theyre around someone like that, that theyre eventually going to get hit on or taken advantage of. Im not saying that its ok to be like that.. Homosexuality is sorta like sexual retardation. but back to you being uncomfortable, dont worry about it. If she does happen to start hitting on you (dont be paraniod and think that every smile or comment is hitting on you) then ask to be moved or get over it... Even if you do not want to go to the party it is still nice to be invited. Be frank and honest and you will be fine. Just because she likes girls, doesn't mean she thinks or feels any differently than you. Would you harass a man at work that you were interested in, would you do things to make him feel uncomfortable, or say comments that may offend him? I have heard of sexual harassment in the workplace but it is not usually perpetrated by women. I don't think you have anything to worry about. Women think alike, and I am sure she would not do anything to put you in an uncomfortable situation, I am sure she will be professional. Please! Stop and think a moment. If, and I do mean if, this gal is a lesbian then I would not worry one bit. It's not contagious, the chances of her hitting on you are slim and none-she would like to keep her job too, given half a chance you might find out she could be a good friend to you. Would you worry as much about a str8 man? He'd be much more likely to hit on you than a lesbian would. Get over it. Concentrate on your work. It's okay to feel uncomfortable around gay people, It's not bigotry if you are uncomfortable. It's just how you feel. I would just try to keep everything 100% professional. Just don't open yourself up to her at all. Don't treat her bad or different, just professional. Try not to look so uncomfortable. Just be yourself and if she brings any relationship arguments to you, let her know you not interested. Try not to go anywhere with her, or be alone with her. Don't be curious about lesbianism, because you might try something with her and you get hook 4 life. When you try it once, you might never wanna go back to a man! a real lesbian will not hit on you if you are not interested. Interest is a two way thing. So maybe you are interested if you have a problem with it? That's just silly! No, you don't need to be uncomfortable. Just because I am a lesbian does NOT mean that I am attracted to all women, I have my own tastes and a set of standards. To assume that she will automatically be attracted to you and/or hit on you goes beyond self confidence. Even if she does become attracted to you, if she has the knowledge that you are straight, nothing will ever come of it. So just mention your boyfriend/husband in casual conversation some day and she will know. It's really not all that confusing or stressful as you are making it. Try not to be quite so self-flattering, it is an unbecoming trait to have. Because lesbians hit on every woman they meet. why uncomfortable? If she hits on you say no. The odds of her hitting on you are slim to none. You'll probably wind up really like working with her. Don't be negative....give her the same chance you would want. Your starting off negative, what makes you think she won't feel uncomfortable working around you? And what makes you think she's going to hit on you? Did it ever occur to you that maybe you to can be just friends.....Flattery will get you nowhere. She won't hit on you unless you make it seem like you want her to. If you're that uncomfortable, tell her you're straight. She'll probably think you're an idiot, but she won't hit on you. just act dorky and back off that lost soul |
