    Okay this is really stupid but i dont know what to do... The hockey team I'm on is currently 12-1 (our last game a loss). So we recruited a new player to ensure it doesn't happen again... but he is realy hot and I think he's so amazing. I don't know how to control the way I feel and I'm afraid something is gonna happen that makes everyone think way less of me.. Ahhh! Any advice? Please help :cry:

    Not sure what the problem is.. Do you think you're going to slip up and accidentally flirt with him or something? Because if not, then just ignore your feelings and focus on what your team is depending on you for, bringing in the wins.

    Well, all I have to give is:
    Just treat him any other teammate.
    Why would people think less of you? Because you're gay?
    If you're pulling your weight on the team then they have no reason to think less of you.

    The only advice that I could really give is just to basically ignore how you feel about him. Like malachite said, treat him like you would any other person on the team. Don't focus on how hot or amazing you think he is, but rather on winning and playing good hockey. Once you're focused on something else, I don't think he'll be that big of problem for you.
