    So there has been this kid at school who I've seen a lot, and I have been attracted to him. He acts gay sometimes, but I wasn't totally sure. Well my friend and him are close, and she just told me that he came out. And he is attracted to me! He said he wanted to go to the dance with me! But the thing is, I dont know what to do. I am interested in him, but I've never gone for someone before. Should I just go talk to him? We haven't spoken before, and how would I start a conversation? Another thing is that he is a freshman and I am a junior. Is he too young for me? I didn't think so, but some people think that it would be wierd. I have the whole weekend and monday to think about what to do, and I don't know. Tell me what you all think.

    Gumtree, think a year 9 and a year 11.

    Lacri - I say go for it, I think there's nothing wrong with that age and year level gap (I mean, why would I? I'm a year 10 who dotes over a year 7!)

    Start a conversation with him - be flirtatious, but not overly so. Just kind of get to know him, ask who he's taking to the dance.... and see where it takes you.

    I don't know if I'd ask him out if you've never talked to him. At least not yet. But do strike up a conversation with him. "Hi, I'm Lacri. (friend) told me you came out recently, and that's really great. I remember how hard it was for me to do that, too." And away you go. :slight_smile:

    Actually that sounds like a good idea. I was thinking of maybe talking to him about coming out today...
