So I put this before the group. I have a successful new internship, doing what I love and will probibly do for the rest of my life, but thats not the point. At my internship there is a guy, that I work VERY close with. He is my age and I think gay as well, however, and here is the conundrum, I don't know for sure. So, my question is, Should I act on this work place romance with possible risk of crash and burn syndrom, and if I do act, how do I approach him. If I do ask him out this will be my first. I'm not very forth coming with my sexuallity and only a select few at work know about me being gay. So ANY HELP OR SUGGESTIONS WOULD BE GREAT. I am quit torn in whether to act at all.
Coming out to people is hard. But i suppose your right thats the only way i'll know if his is or not.
well. do you have any close mutual friends at work? if you do you could maybe have her/him help you out with talking to him and stuff. like.. have them test the waters for you or something...
You need to be very careful how you go about this. Many states don't have laws protecting against glbt discrimination in the work place. Also, be careful what you say, it could be mis construed as sexual harassment. I would hold off, it sounds like this job will help you alot in the future, dont ruin it over a crush.
Well, if you think it's too hard to do right now, thn dont, just come out whne you are ready, but yeah, like one said above, be careful though, well, just come ou to him, maybe, but dont act like a gay man in the work place, my teacher in my school was fired because some kids said he was gay so yeah, be cautious
