Bonus points if the person saying the offensive thing thought they were being complimentary.

    I’ve never even dated someone, but I’ve walked with male friends and had someone shout out he was taking one for the team and thanking him for his service. I’ve also had someone say loudly that they would be embarrassed to be seen with someone like me (fat and ugly). I’ve had someone stop him and ask if he knew “it” was following him (We were in different sections of a store while I was approaching). I’ve had people say he must be rich to keep “something like me” fed. I’ve had friends called “pig fucker” while walking with me. I’ve had people, when they thought I couldn’t hear, praise him for seeing “what’s inside.” I’ve had people insinuate that I must be good in bed for anyone to want me. I’ve been called practice. I have had someone loudly exclaim that “damn, if that’s all that’s left I’d just be gay.”

    So, not a “relationship,” but friendship. Sorry if that’s vending the rules a bit.
