    Hey!

    Recently, me and this guy became friends through my other friend, and he's really cool and we seem to really get on and it's great because I never usually get on with other (straight) guys and it made me feel like I was finally normal and I had a good friend and it could turn in to something good.

    But then my stupid mind kicked in. He asked to hang out and I said yes and I really wanted to, but instead of thinking about being friends whenever I think about seeing him or I see a photo I just think about being with him in a relationship, I think I have a crush on a straight guy? It's so frustrating because I know he's straight and he doesn't even know I'm gay and I don't want to ruin my only male 'friendship' because I can't stop feeling this way towards him.

    Obviously I can't tell him anything, but do you have any ideas about how I could get over it and be normal with him? :bang:

    I've had the experience and added complications of really crushing on dudes who are my friends too! I think you should just act like you do with your other friends; that's what I do with my crushes, who I'm pretty sure are all straight + mostly don't know I'm trans (which technically means I could be in a relationship with them 'casue they mostly think I'm female...). And if acting normal is a little too hard? Well I don't really know because I'm really bad with relationships so...
