Hi all =)
I'm just really lost as to what to do.. I'm a girl (who likes guys) and I have a really close male friend. We've known each other for ages and I trust him with everything, though he doesn't talk about himself much. I thought I'd never feel that way about him, but recently I think I've started to have feelings for him.
I told him a couple of hours ago and he's really nice about it, though he said he won't ever feel that way. I was hurt, but I said "of course, I understand, it's okay if you don't like me in that way, I'm totally okay with it". Then he went, "no you don't understand. Do you know why? I can't like you.. I can't 'cause I'm not into girls. I swear if I were into girls I'd be totally into you, but I'm not". He said I'm the second person he's ever told about this.
Has this ever happened to anyone? I'm really lost at the moment. I'm totally fine with him being homosexual though, as I'm completely okay with this sexuality issue. But I'm just confused, though I know I have to get over him. He's considering coming out next year (which will be our final year of high school) and it will be so hard for him 'cause he's really popular and he might become our Head Prefect. I want to help him but don't know how..
It would be great if the other homosexual males out there could offer some advice! I've had no experience with this issue, but I'd really like to help him. Of course, for all the homosexual/bisexual people, if you ever feel like people don't accept you, I would. ^^ If anyone has anything to talk about I can always listen.
So any help would appreciated!! Thanks for reading :smile:
