(15,420 posts)That apparently some people thought my best friend in high school and I were gay and in a relationship because we tended not to go to parties, but we would do weird things like climb up on his roof or go out into the country and lay on the hood of a car, look up at the stars, and just talk, so when a classmate happened upon us, it looked kind of weird. I wasn't popular (in fact, I cultivated unpopularity because I couldn't stand most of my classmates), but my friend was very popular and very good looking - he was pretty much an Adonis because while we both lifted weights, he was just more genetically gifted I guess. But he didn't date much (although I often had to memorize phone numbers of girls we didn't know who would come up to him in a mall wanting to get to know him) because he also didn't care much for a lot of our classmates. He was just better at hiding it. In fact, he was the one that told me (after we had graduated) about our rep with some people, and we just laughed because we didn't care what anyone in our town thought about us.
