im staying at a mates place to night. he goes to my school and we have had sleep overs before and i like him and he likes me also. he has a computer so do you think i should tell him about EC???
<NEWBIE> very good question, anyway you might want to ask him how curious/ect he is and then tell him. Hope i was even slightly helpful:icon_redf Kibuki Kid <yes it was misspelt, so sue me(please dont:tears>
I don't know you're friend so I'm not much help. If it were my friend - Like the one I hang with now - I wouldn't do it. But if you guys are comfortable with eachother I would go for it. Actually....I'd play it by ear. Whatever the case, good luck!
he doesnt know that im gay but i think he is??? he is 14 but nearly 15 and in 9th grade but i talk to him on my bus to school and have knowed him for more than a year and a bit. im looking forward to sleeping at his place. his dad is picking me up at 6.00pm. ive already had a shower and got my bag ready. i will let you no how it goes
Well I don't think you should there are things you might want to keep private, however its past 6:00 now so yeah, you probably already have. ^.^
Jay, telling him about EC is one way to come out to him, if you have enough courage and sure that he still be your friend if he knows you are gay even tho he's not, then you can tell him
yes i did tell him this morning now 3 of my mates know but i still think he is gay but i think he could be. maybe he doesnt want to say some thing yet??? when i told him he didnt seemed to be worried that i was. i had a good night at his place and his mum and dad are nice
Probably too late, but I wouldn't tell them unless I told them I was gay first. Cause telling them about this basically implies your gay, so if you want to come out, go ahead! But with telling him about this is basically coming out to him.
Well EC is for those questioning their sexuality. Being a member doesn't mean you are gay, though it probably does mean you are uncertain about things and do not think you are straight. There are some exceptions though, such as Becky. Jayden's status is "Not sure (still trying to figure it out)" which would go along with this. However some of what he's posted comes across as being gay rather than anything else. He could still tell his friend he is not sure about things though "not sure, maybe bi, maybe gay, don't think I'm straight". Having said all that though, I think most people if you told them you were a member of this site would assume you were gay.
Good point. While it's not very common, there are straight people who use the site such as Becky, or those seeking advice for their friends.
hmm. telling him you are gay is one thing, if you are, and if you are ready for that. but telling him about EC is a different story. if he doesnt take it so well that you are gay, he could tell everyone at your school that you are gay, which in itself could be devastating. but if everyone at your school could read all your blogs and threads etc... that you posted with some kind of, anonyimity... perhgaps start by telling him that you are gay. if he says he is too, then you could welcome him onboard!! ...although its probably too late now anyway.. (if so hope ya had a good sleepover, im sure you'l tell us about it)
