    Well, last time I complained I talked about the guy I like being into another guy; there are good news and bad news. The good news is that the guy he liked is already taken (I'll better call it neutral news because it's not good news to the guy I like) and that the two of us are getting kind of closer as friends (and just as friends, even tho it's kinda dumb because I think our friendship is based on both of us being gay and having the same major). The bad news is that I'm still having a lot of feelings for him, and spending time with him isn't helping... what should I do? I still think I don't have much to offer him. It's kind of hard to explain.

    ...it feels nice to vent, too.

    I'm sure you have more to offer than you know.
    Even when we self reflect we can't really know the true value of ourselves you know?

    Well...the other good part is that you already know he's gay.
    Try bringing up the subject a little at a time. You could tell him that there's someone you like but you're not sure how to tell him and see what his reaction is.
    You could drop little hints and see what he says.
    I don't know....but good luck in whatever you decide to do.

    Yeah, that's good; but that's the problem, I'm not sure of what to do yet... :icon_redf

    He kind of confuses me.

    (*hug*)

    Just because I know crushes are difficult. Whether they end up happy or not.

    You'll be alright. (*hug*)

    Unfortunately that's often the way things work out...

    You like someone.

    They like someone else.

    Or they're taken.

    Or they're gay straight.

    And then every now and again you find someone you like and they like you back.

    Good things come to those who wait.
