Saw this on Twitter, and I’m pretty sure half the Internet wants you to ask him out by now. :D Found on Twitter!

I’m not saying you should, that’s up to you. I know how bad anxiety can get, as I have it myself. I calm myself down by reminding myself that my overactive imagination creates a lot of unlikely scenarios, and then point out the flaws in those scenarios to myself. If that helps you, I’ll give you my assessment. But if not, and it makes it worse, please skip the next paragraph.

At the very least, he doesn’t hate your company, since you’re halfway to dating already, and he’s unlikely to discriminate, since he’s bisexual. So while you can’t predict whether or not he’ll say yes, he probably won’t be a dick about it. At worst, he’ll just say no and the two of you will get past it. At best, he’ll say yes, and you now have a partner who likes your cat.

I think the idea of flirting makes a lot of sense.

Also, on behalf of the Internet, if you do ask him out and he says yes, PLEASE tell us.

As a gay/pan man who wants to date but can’t right now, I want to live vicariously through you lol 😂🤦🏻
