    Went for a drive with my brother, and he just casually asked "are you gay?" and I didn't deny it.. He's cool with it.

    I don't know how to feel about it though.

    Congratulations! You must be glad that it went pretty well.

    What did you feel like when he asked you? What did he say? What was it like afterward?

    We were driving and he brought up his man-crush to the singer of the band we were listening to, then just casually added "are you gay?" and I just didn't deny it and he said it was cool, and just talked a little bit. I was pretty damn nervous and still am about it, but I had to answer truthfully sometime.

    That's great, congratulations!

    Really nice to see that your brother wasn't judgmental about it.
