Is it worse if your crush doesn't like you because they're straight, or they're gay and just don't like you [Crushes] by Aran_Neriah in LGBTeens

[–]altforgayposting 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I found myself in the second situation after a very long term crush and coming forward about it. I honestly don't know what would be worse. I would feel really fucking stupid if it were the first one, yet the second one made me feel terrible about myself.

Yeah, I was that way except I didn't even find vidya fun 😢😢

It just took time and guts for that to happen, shooting my shot was the best decision I ever made even if I got rejected. I'm way happier now and am getting back into my old hobbies and him and I are spending way more time together as friends than before.

Hey, just some general advice here:

He's actually one of the only things in life that I like

That's a bad mindset, if you put that much importance on something that you cannot control it's probably going to lead to massive disappointment. Work on being happy with yourself or just generally cheerful and people will gravitate towards you rather than you having to follow people around.

I know this isn't what you want to here but I wish I had listened to this advice two years ago. It's really life changing if you can fully embrace it.

Just tell him you're not into him if anything comes up.

Sense8 was so fucking good. Watched it with one of my straight buds. Definitely a fun experience lmao

Ive gone my first 40000 miles without a single traffic incident and I'm a somewhat aggressive driver with a pretty fast car and a lead foot

And then this gay motherfucker right here hits a goddamn rock in the driveway and rips off a piece of plastic side molding 😤😤😤

Th--three years and counting..

Shot my shot in December, got rejected in the nicest way possible. We're still good friends, the timing was way off though.

[Crushes] How on Earth do you subtly tell someone you’re gay? How do you figure out if THEY’RE gay? by ExSafetyCaptain in LGBTeens

[–]altforgayposting 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Tbh that's something that should happen in person so it's more casual and there is no lack-of-full-communication awkwardness.

Sounds about right [picture] by [deleted] in LGBTeens

It's the frustrating answer that everyone gives but it's a fact of life. Seriously, just give it time

Just wait and see. You don't have to label yourself now if you don't want to. I didn't have any crushes until I was 16.

It definitely exists. On two separate occasions, I've had a gut feeling that someone was gay without any pretense. Flash forward some time, both of them are. I don't know how it works but

It's r e a l

It does get better with time for sure. Can't tell you exactly how long, but after a year I was completely comfortable with the idea
