Riese, I’m going to college in the fall and I’m terrified that people won’t like me/I won’t like them/I’ll just be awkward in general. Help?

you know i went to college in the fall once upon a time, and nobody liked me and i didn’t like them either and it was totally awkward. but look, now i’m like 30 fucking years old and I really like all my friends! actually i know this is rare, and most people seem to have intense connections to their college friends above all other friends, but natalie is really my only friend from college that i still have. i’m much closer to my friends from boarding school and my friends from new york (and now LA) than to anyone i was attached to in college. it’s sort of strange, actually. but i had friends, eventually, who i liked and we had a good time, mostly. it was fine. and a lot of people arrived and were terrified that people wouldn’t like them and eventually it became the best experience of their lives! in other words, i can’t help you, but i still think you’re gonna be okay.

Ask Riese a brand new thing

How much does one’s style contribute to the workings of the gaydar? Like is it true in that scene of The L Word when Alice and Shane are explaining it and showing how the gaydar works to Dana?

It depends. If you have G-A-Y shaved in to the side of your head, yeah it’s going to contribute a lot. Otherwise, maybe not so much.

Nails though. Nails are a good one.

How do I stop being ignorant about things I don’t understand? Especially since I’m a lesbian and I know how that feels

reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaaaad

and then ask a bunch of questions and talk to people who aren’t you and then question yourself and everything else. question the people who aren’t you and then listen to everything they say about themselves. then talk about it.

then keep reading.

my ex-girlfriend has been in an icky relationship with a guy for 3 years, but i suspect she might lean more heavily towards the ladies & she sends me the occasional semi-flirty text. i would never want her to cheat, but could a coffee date be appropriate?

I probably wouldn’t go on any type of date with an ex-girlfriend. Not because it’s inappropriate but because I’m a fragile little bumblebee and I don’t like it when people trample my heart twice, you know?

Ask Laura if, why, how, when, or what.

what advice would u give a butch wanting to dress stylishly butch this summer? (not sure if it worked sending it the first time. sorry if this is a repeat!)

JCrew’s Stanton short (http://www.jcrew.com/mens_feature/NewArrivals/shorts/PRDOVR~79653/79653.jsp) with light weight button ups rolled up to your elbows. Avoid short sleeve button-ups.

Easy on the basketball shorts, T-shirts and baseball caps.
