3 AM and sitting here listening to 16 year old my son bawl his eyes out cause a girl crushed his self being.

So my son has been having issues with girls. He is a good looking kid, people seem him as weird though cause he has gauges and loves his death metal music. This narrows his choice of girls down.

Well he has been with out a gf for a while and he finally had a girl interested and want to come over to see him.

He has been talking to this girl for like a year through other friends. She live about 35mins away from us. He asks if she can come over. I of course say yes. He is all excited and wants to make a great first personal impression. We frantically clean the house, he cleans his room, blah blah blah. So the next day we drive 35 mins to go get her and 35 mins back to the house. We get here they pick out a movie and go to watch it. All seems just great for quite a long time. I keep dropping in on them see how everything is going, basically letting them know I am keeping an eye on them. So its about time for us to take her home and from his room comes a big bang and everything is quiet.

Well i yell down and say its almost time to go, he says give me a min. They come up in a min or two, and his face is red and so is hers. You can tell they have been crying. Needless to say the drive was all quite and not much was said as he sat up front with me and she sat in the back alone.

So we drop her off and as she closes the door and pull away my son yells out "That was complete horse shit!!!"

It seems that during their time together they had a grand time, he complemented her on how beautiful she was and what not. Of course they made out. The real issue was somewhere towards the end when her ex calls her. She then reveals to my son that she is a lesbian and that was just seeing if she had made a mistake by being lesbian. Well of course this blew my sons mind and he went nuts.

So anyways now he feels that all girls hate him and his life is shit. I of course tried to console him and make him see that he is young and these girls in this little shitty area mean nothing. I feel so bad for him and feel there is nothing I can do.

I feel i just need to ride this out. My gawd I hate having to see my kids in pain.

TLDR: My son was crushed because the girl he liked told him she was a lesbian after making out with him.
