    Awkwardness

    So a friend/acquaintance from school invited me to his birthday party via Facebook. The party is situated at Club Unity, which I'm told is a prominent gay club in Montreal.

    I already have plans to spend that day with my father because he's going to China for 2 months. Yes again. No, I'm not going this time, and it sucks.

    So fortunately I have a genuine excuse to avoid going, however I'm just curious as to how many straight people would actually go to a gay club if it was for their gay friend's birthday.

    I imagine feeling incredibly awkward and standing in a corner.

    Your thoughts?

    I'm comfortable with my sexuality, so I would probably go if I knew him well.

    Maybe I'm vain but I just imagine being hit on all night extremely uncomfortable. >_>

    that'd be a little weird for me for sure. I would make an excuse not to go then give them a lavish bday present to make up for it ^__^ my friends are pretty easy to buy off

    I probably wouldn't go. For one, I hate clubbing. I find it boring, since I don't drink and I'm a terrible dancer. Also I can only imagine it being a little awkward.

    My opinion... is exactly the same as blueys.
    Clubbing doesn't appeal to me at all.

    Our first night in Spain (Spring 2007) we accidentally went to a gay bar and we didn't even know it was a gay bar until the night was over...

    Whatever.
    Who cares.
    Loosen up.
    You're only young once.

    He should definetely go with his dad though. The fact that we even think about the decision "clubbing vs dad for the last time in 2 months" is sad to me.

    I don't like me dad but at least I'd respect him enough to go along with him like Adam is.

    awha??

    Peter, that was a total non-issue in this conversation, I was just explaining why I couldn't go.

    Of course I'd spend time with my dad before going clubbing...

    My opinion... GO... But it would be better if you go with a girl... We have a famous gay club here, but if you go with a girl, they leave you alone...

    Some of the girls will feel awkward too.
    They'll be indebted to you if you pretend to "be their boyfriend" for the night.

    Find out the girls that are going, and be a cool dude.

    Personally, I'd go with the Dad thing. But, other than that.. when you go to Uni, you're not going to see him for ages, so.. man up perhaps about that?


    I'd go with the Dad thing in this case, but in future, make sure you find out who else is going.

    I'm hanging out with my dad, that's already decided.

    The university I'm going to is in Montreal and a 20 minute drive or 30 minute train ride + 15 min metro ride.

    So I'm not leaving the house to go to University.

    I can survive without my parents for 2 months, it's more that I won't be seeing him and so I felt that more important.

    Neither did mine, I don't expect him to, still my dad.

    Yeah I know it's a non-issue, was just pointing it out to the ones who'd choose the other option.
