    Hi there, and welcome to Empty Closets!

    Congratulations on your coming out journey thus far, and glad that it is off to a great start! :slight_smile:

    Some will make a distinction between their 'straight' and 'gay' friends, as the topics of conversation, and perhaps the feeling of having a 'special' bond with someone, can differ. Given that the guy is gay as well, I would interpret it as that he might feel that you have a 'special' place among his friends in that you share the same sexual orientation and can relate to things or conversations that might touch upon sexual orientation or discussions of relationships in a similar way, or can empathize with him.
