But you can go in to look. At the sports items, I mean *LOL*
Pretend you're interested in picking up a sport like running or so, and ask for his advice. This way you can start a good conversation. And then ask him what sports he's interested in, let him talk a bit about it, and then ask if maybe he could show you... his sport, I more…
Even with James being gone (soon), you can still continue your blog and keep us, your trusted friends, up-to-date with what else is going on in your life. It's good to have a place to vent, you know. ;)
And yes, there will be other gorgeous men in your life. Maybe not tomorrow, maybe not more…
Thanks for the comment. It only hurst becaue I like him so much. But I am lucky that he didnt run a mile or go and spread stories- that could have been difficult.
And next year, when he's gone..... perhaps someone hotter will come along. more…
Oh dear, been there, done that. It was so awfully frightening back then, and it hurt so much afterwards. Even when they stayed friendly. (Or when they ran back to their old girlfriends just out of fear.)
It will get better with time, though. That's maybe not much of a comfort now, but it will. more…
Well done for handling the situation so well. And I take my hat off to your friend who dealt with the whole so maturely - never forget that he knew you were gay and still actively sought to take you out. That makes him pretty cool, actually.
And something else you may have learnt - the cool straight men find it a big compliment to be more…
And now I know. And he will be going away soon, so I won't have him there all the time, oozing gorgeousness. I have told him I am going to miss him, I hope he will miss me a bit too.
He sounds incredibly mature. I'm trying to think of any guys I knew at sixth form who would have responded to a guy fancying them by saying they were flattered, and being ok with it. Hopefully you'll have managed to make a really good friend out of this, even if you do still fancy the pants off him! You never know who's around the corner ;) more…
Why shouldn't you have said anything? You did the only right thing: you addressed the issue. Congrats on your bravery!
But now you know for sure he's "straight". And he has no problem with you being gay or being fancied by you - why are you having a problem with the evening then? I mean, apart from the obvious, that you t more…
You two finally have a date ?!?!?!?!?! Congratulations!!!
Yes, he may not be interested in you as a lover, for all you know he may not even be gay, but at least you get to spend some time with him alone and have the chance to get to know him better.
Enjoy your date!!! And if nothing else happens, try to savour every mome more…
That's a shame. There's no potion, I'm afraid. And you know that there are other men out there and that you are still young and that it is all out of perspective just at the moment - so I won't bore you by saying it all again.
He likes you enough to want to be your friend - which must mean that you're a nice guy and fun to be around, more…
There really isn't anything one could say to take away your disappointment. You already know there will be other men for you in the future etc., but that doesn't help at the moment.
For the time being, maybe you can find consolation in your dreams of James. Just don't withdraw but ke more…

What are you afraid of? I'm seriously asking this, not just rhetorically.
Normally, people don't think anything of it when being asked for their name.
Just say: "oh, by the way, what's your name". Then tell him yours. And then continue with your conversation ;)
There's nothing wrong with that. And if you more…
