How do you deal with the fact that one's sexuality and who one dates seems to be everyone's business on Tumblr?

Because i can't stand it...

I keep a lot of secrets. Honestly, even with how big a deal I made, ponies thinking I’m gay is little more than a minor annoyance.

I’m just running out of varied ways to reply to it.

From my perspective, could be a lot worse!

You aren't into fillies? What a shame

Bon-Bon is… Not that I know if she has her eye on any pony at the moment.

You’ve Kept Awfully Quiet About This Lyra! Who’s The Lucky Colt?

I’m meeting him for coffee tonight. Again, I have no idea if he’ll even consider this a date.

You're not? But... but... me and Vi were gonna invite you over!

When? I kinda have plans tonight.

Wait so you aren't a maresbian? I could've sworn you were.

No. I’m straight. I’ve always been straight. And by always, I mean going quite a long ways back. I’ve talked about it a number of times.

Wait a second..you're single?

That depends on how tonight goes, actually. I have no idea if he even realizes this is a date, to be honest.

I know you said you two aren't a couple, but have you to tried, like, experimenting together, or something?

Celestia darn it… It had been like a solid week since I got one of these…

I could have sworn you two were!!

No… No…

Bon-Bon is… I’m not…

Oh Celestia… You’ve got like over three hundred followers… They’ve all already seen that now…

uh 2 meanings? what are those i'm curious can you send me privatly? :o

Since Gilda asked about it too…

One is ‘doomed to fail’, the other passes beyond the what I deem to be appropriate on my page.

I’m guessing whoever that was referred specifically to the second. Suffice to say it involves intercourse.

Are you dtf?

Hold on, yahoofing the meaning…

Okay…

What the-…

Alright, I’ve found two possible meanings…

I don’t approve of either.

I'm very good thanks! >;D Just enjoying a peaceful evening.. how about you? what are you doing right now? I saw your answer from yesterday and i agree it is really bad to show something like that to a filly and it really wasn't okay! D:<

The Problem is that there are TOO many to talk to i wish i could talk to everypony but that is not possible not even in ten seconds flat!.. D:>
So sorry that i said you only wouldn't talk to me!

I’m at the spa right now with Rarity, Applejack, and Applejack’s Mom.

It’s okay. Sweetie never saw the story and Gilda didn’t mean to cause any harm! It was just a misunderstanding.

I know what you mean! To be honest, I don’t really want to talk to everypony. Where I am right now with answering questions and talking, plus practicing music, I’m busy all day! I can’t imagine actually talking to everypony! It just takes so much time to be social! I used to think Pinkie Pie’s special talent was kinda weird, but being social and throwing parties all the time must be incredibly difficult!

Lyra!.. you seem to talk with everypony besides me why is that i wished we could talk! :o

I’m sorry, Rainbow Dash! I certainly don’t mean for it to seem that way!

I’d say I really don’t talk to very many ponies, but I don’t think that would sit well with you either.

How are you? Everything alright?

Getting late and Battery is dying

Going back home and going to bed. I probably should have said something to Bon-Bon before I left in such a huff. Particularly with my taking her ipony again.

I like that bit of video I recorded though. I like watching the grass wave in the wind.

GILDA!!!

How could you-!

She’s Gilda. What do you expect?

That’s enough! I don’t want to hear another word about it! It’s resolved!

We’re Still Cool Right, Lyra?

Of course we are! It was a cultural misunderstanding, nothing more.

GILDA!!!
