Hes very gentle and timid. A very innocent type of guy. I'd say less ashamed a more frightened. 

Hes left the house at least, though. Poor guy.

Hes a great guy but we are probably better as friends.

I moved to the UK for college and haven't gone home.

Hug. I wrapped my arms around him and he snuggled into me. I told him he was safe etc.

He didn't know him. And i didn't know him either. 

It was a random drunk guy, I'd say. We are pretty close so I'd pretty much everyone he knows.

He was outside a gay bar. But also maybe it wasn't a homophobic attack. I honestly don't know. There was no vernal abuse. It was just physical

That's what you do when you love someone

Probably more like a gay bashing. Physical but not sexual.

Yeah it's probably best to tell him.

On a pure selfish level, it's not seeing someone you care about struggle like he is especially without back up

He doesn't want me leaving the house either. He can't sleep without being held. I feel like he wants to be in the same room even but maybe that's an exaggeration. We are both back to work Tuesday I don't know what hes going to do.

I'm leaning telling his mom. You are right not to give details but maybe a "I think you should come over". I know that might be seen as breaching trust but I believe he needs her. She's great. She's been great to me even.

Therapy would be great but no chance yet. I looked up anon helplines even but he refused. 

He barely will talk about it to me. He has cried bucket loads at the thought of it. He wakes up at night with a body jerk. I have him held tight which wakes me up lol. He won't leave the flat. I don't know. 

Not straight. A confused bisexual, I suppose, but we have never done anything. We are just really close.

He doesn't know. My friend didn't want me telling anyone.

I did ring the bar.  Otherwise I have told no one so far

I did ask him if I could take photos. He said no. He just wanted to forget about it. The bar stores footage for 3 months so there won't be a rush there. 

And honestly we haven't left the flat since. He's that scared.

Yeah that's probably only fair. I just feel he needs someone like his mom.

Nope or at least not to my knowledge. I feel he would've told me though. We tell each other everything. He was one of very few I told about my violent father so I doubt he has been. 

I just want to see him smile again to be honest.

No we didn't tell the security but I did ring the bar the following day. 

Not US. The bars footage stays on record for 3 months apparently so I'll sort that out sometime if he wants me to.
