James

We had an incredibly attractive friend, James. Both sexes were attracted to him, so to speak: girls and guys. And since you were the head of shipping in our group, you were already hoping with all your might that he was gay and would eventually get together with his best friend. You could already imagine them... ahem... and so much more. But at the same time, he reciprocated feelings for girls just as easily. Gradually, the thought crept into your head that perhaps he liked both sexes. And with each passing moment, your heart grew heavier and heavier.

One day, you went for a walk around the city with him, stopped at a cafe, and ordered donuts. Suddenly, he handed you a fortune cookie. “Take it, it’s for good luck,” he smiled.

You absentmindedly tore it open and found a folded piece of paper inside. Unfolding it, you read: "I love you. Let's date?"

You choked on the crumbs so hard that you let out a hoarse, much louder breath than you had intended: —I THOUGHT YOU WERE GAY!

James instantly blushed and, looking around, whispered:
