Reply #67: I had a roommate in college spread a rumor I was a lesbian.

[jmm]

She had a boyfriend but that didn't stop her from throwing herself at men. The second semester we lived together a guy moved onto our floor that she liked. He turned down all her advances so he had to be gay. When he and I started spending time together I became a lesbian. I pretty much ignored the issue until somebody confronted her in front of me. I figured my friends knew I wasn't but more importantly they wouldn't care if I was. I took it as a good opportunity to weed some bigots out of my life. She got upset when she realized I knew what she had been saying but didn't admit it sooner. I basically laughed in her face and said it wasn't like she was hurting my chances with men.
