My partner has become too feminine... and it's a turnoff

When I first got together with my partner he was a masculine gay man. Now he seems to be getting more and more feminine to conform to the gay culture. It's a turnoff that he's practically becoming a woman right before my eyes. Should I end the relationship?

He's at protests with arrests, government death threats

All week my partner has been watching the L.A. protests. I thought of Buff Boy because you guys are the only ones I know in that area. With the hype of these "No Kings" protests, my partner has insisted on going. I'm all for freedom of speech and protest I just worry he's going to get caught up in a bad situation, especially since things tend to get violent and there's threats of arrests and even killing people who protest. How do I handle this?

My partner refuses to drive, insists we take a bus - no thanks!

It's a new relationship but my partner doesn't drive. I hate always having to drive and pick him up. He said we can take a bus to go on dates instead of me driving. Bus is incredibly inconvenient so I end up driving and it leads to fights. Should he become an adult and drive himself around?

My partner insults with my insecurities during fights

My partner insults with my insecurities during fights

When I fight with my partner he brings up insecurities that have nothing to do with what we're fighting about just to insult me. He does it to hurt my feelings and thinks it wins him the fight. The digs sting long after the fight is over but he makes it too personal. Should I stoop to his level and make it personal or take the higher road?

I appreciate that my parents are accepting of my being gay. In previous years they've told me to go have fun at Pride and be safe. This year, they want to come with me and my group of friends to the parties and the bars. Should I tell them no or just say I'm not doing Pride this year and go out secretly?

My partner sings along to music when we're in public. He starts out humming a few lines but then eventually goes into full-on singing as the music continues. It's embarrassing because he gets into it like he's in a recording studio. Yes, even does the hand on his ear when he’s reaching for a note. It's weird! How should I tell him?
