BubbleBoy Posted June 9, 2013 Posted June 9, 2013 Don't quite know where to start, but oh well. I started work at the beginning of this year Monday-Friday. But on a Saturday I was in a really bad mood and didn't know where to go, so decided to go into work and take my mind off of the thing that put me in that mood, well anyway there is a young guy (he is 17 and just leaving high school he will be 18 in a few months) well I sort of developed a crush on him from the very first moment I saw him. I didn't speak to him or his 2 friends at all the first day I went in, because as I said I was in a bad mood, so the following Saturday when I went in I still didn't talk because I made the whole thing awkward. Well fast forward a few months, and I finally got the courage to talk to him and get to know him a little better. He knows I'm gay, practically everyone as work knows I am. But recently I noticed he looks over at me quite a lot and then as our eyes meet he looks down or away quickly. A friend said he liked a girl in high school but never really pursued her much. So I'm rather confused about the whole thing, is there a chance he likes me, I haven't noticed him looking at other people that much. I keep thinking back to when I was in high school and the whole gay thing, was almost forbidden to be spoken about around the guys. But when I was in high school I did the whole dating girls, and trying to be flirty and telling all my guy friends who much I "fancied" a certain girl and what not. So I really don't know whether he is in facy straight, gay or even bisexual. He only does a Saturday at work by the way, and I will be finishing soon as he will be heading to University soon. Should I maybe just buck up the courage and tell him I like him, or not? Hopefully there will be some gay members here who could help. I'm 23 by the way, and from the UK so the whole 17 year old thing doesn't seem as dodgy here as it might else where. Sorry for such a long post (and no doubt many spelling errors)
gaius Posted June 9, 2013 Posted June 9, 2013 Maybe just ask him out for an undefined coffee? Or some activity that will at least give you an excuse to get his contact information. So you can keep in touch after you leave. I think if I was a young gay kid who was uncomfortable enough with it to pretend I was into a girl I might find an outright "I like you" a little heavy.
