Gateway Relationship

In gay culture: a relationship in which one partner is the other partner's first real homosexual partner, usually defined by one experienced partner and one non-experienced partner. The experienced partner usually helps the other person become okay with being homosexual and comfortable in homosexual relationships. This relationship almost always fails.

John: Yeah, but it's totally a gateway relationship.
Loyd: I know, I'm setting myself up for heartbreak.

Gateway Friends

Hey are you hanging with Jack?

No! Him and I are only gateway friends. I would only hang with him if Tony was here.

bad gateway

An annoying error message that seems to pop up on my phone's web browser, for no apparent reason other than to piss me off, that prevents me from going to the link I'm clicking on... Even if I was just there!
In worst case scenarios, I have to completely back out, and start over.
I go to Urbandictionary.com on my phone almost everyday, but I can't today cause it's a bad gateway...

I can't refresh the page I'm on, or go back to the previous page cause, for some reason, their bad gateways now...

I left the Facebook Homepage to check my notifications, and now the Homepage link is a bad gateway...

Gateway touch

A gateway touch is a good way to touch a woman and figure out if you can keep touching and talking sexual with her at work without getting reported, often starts with a subliminal massage.
Hey look at me I'm a d**k. I work in local government. Think I might start with a gateway touch and then ask the women to go swimming, maybe talk about fetishes, maybe I will run my finger up her leg, maybe put my body up against her body, maybe bring a book about vagina and pubic hair to work, maybe call her magic fingers in a meeting, see if it makes her uncomfortable, I did the gateway touch and she didn't report me, maybe I might tell her I can get it up. If she reports me I'll say lots of words like I can't remember, words like maybe and um and Uh. I should be able to get away with it.
