Is it normal for a gay guy to frequently sleep with a woman?

Who cares what going on! But.. If he's getting meaner, you need to get out before you both get hurt. He's a confused gay.

He wants to end it if he's being mean. Trying to turn you off to him sk he cab go back to being gay, and not be reminded of his mistakes

gay, straight and bisexual are cultural categories. sexuality is complex, and fitting sexuality into a category can be difficult. if you identify strongly with your sexual category it is understandibly hard to deal with a sexuality that does not fit with yor idea of yourself.
i would tell him to care less about categories.
just look after yourself so you dont get hurt meanwhile...

he is confused. You might get aids too. I know of a couple men bi-sexual who got married have kids and have affairs with other men. Their ex-wives were devasted. Is this what you want? If he's getting mean back away, run away actually would be a better idea.....of course I've never done the friends with benefits thing it's all or nothing for me...

have him teach you how to give BJs and you can practice on him and then you might be able to tell if he's into it and see if he's REALLY gay

He's bi

Maybe he was gay, but you made him straight?

Firstly, you wont get AIDs, the person who said that is incredibly ignorant...but of course use a condom whoever you're with. Sexuality is a spectrum, and whether hes gay or straight, hes clearly attracted to you. How is he being meaner to you though? Like in what way?

He's probably more bi than gay.
I know a girl who's made being a "lesbian" her life's purpose, but she's not even gay, just really fucked up.

I think it's just another way to get attention, like "Look! I'm gay! Look how gay I am!...... oh, straight sex? sure! But I'm so gay!"

You must be pretty desparate yourself for banging a self-professed gay guy. Time to snap out of it.

I think that he feels a deep intimacy issue with you...it's friendship with wanting to be you at the same time...maybe his confusion in sex has led to him moments of infuriation...be careful...sex is sex ...but safe sex and knowing a man is deep into you is a different story..please be careful

If he's mean you need to walk away from the relationship. I think whatever he is, he is definitely using you, because you will never be his girlfriend right? So now you are in a situation with someone who treats you badly and is using you for sex. Step away from this.

hes just confused.... though sleeping (as long as its just sleeping) with a good girl friend, is normal.

My guess is he's either bisexual, confused, or strait and using you.
Just be careful.

oh, and yea, the sex is amazing.

haha. thanks everyone. and he is def gay. he's a craigslist junkie that likes to photo document his exploits (condoms are always worn and visible in photos)

Maybe he's not gay - maybe he just says he is so he doesn't have to commit to any sort of relationship with you. That could go hand in hand with him being progressively meaner too.

thanks for the comments, guys. this situation is so confusing to me. he's mean when we're not in together (on the phone or online chat), not during sex--just want to clarify that.

keep commenting! i could use all the insight i can get!

If he is progressively meaner to you I think he just might hate himself for what he's doing. Or maybe he's trying to make himself straight and is angry that it isn't working. I think you should stop this relationship. It doesn't really benefit either of you in the long run.

First, it is important that you are protecting yourselves during your sexual encounters with each other and others. The risk of transmission of a disease is high with monogamous couples with no other sexual partners, but increases when other sexual partners are added to the equation, and increases more so exponentially, when these other partners are of alternating genders...but that is in monogamous relationships, and you and your friend do not have one...so you see the level of the risk?

Okay, now, to your queestion: It sounds like your friend may be struggling with his sexual orientation and how to categorize himself. It may be helpful for him to do some research on the issue of sexual identity and to learn just how diverse people's preferences can be. I would suggest that you stop having sexual relations with him until you are able to clarify for yourself what kind of relationship you would like to have with him. If you want to stay friends, then cut the sex out permanently or know and accept that no matter how much sex you have with him, or how intimate it may feel, you are just friends and not sexually exclusive. If on the other hand, you decide that you want to be in an intimate and exclusive relationship with him, I suggest you weigh the costs and benefits, and eventually let him know of your needs. How he reacts is his responsibility, being honest with yourself and with him is yours.

Best of luck!
