    Woohoo! Ok, now you have to figure out how to get to know him. Do you have any friends in common, maybe you could organize a group outing or activity?

    So you're Facebook friends? And he recently came out on FB? If so send him a FB message about how awesome and brave he is for coming all the way out like that and ask if you can take him out for a celebratory ice cream/coffee/drink (depending on how y'all are of course)

    Ok, so if you didn't have a crush on him and just wanted to become friends how do you think you'd go about it?

    Does he know you're gay?

    Is there a gay coffee shop, or pride event coming up that you could ask him to go to with you? Like as back up? Or, since you both are inti theater, a LGBT centric play?

    Actually, if he knows you're gay you could just ask him to hang out by telling him you really would like to have a gay friend.

    Ask him to hang out! If there isn't any community centers in your area, you both could use the support of another gay person! Try the "I need a gay friend" approach!

    Sure thing! Good luck! :slight_smile:
     
  19. I'd just strike up a conversation with him.

    "Hey what do you think about that drama group? You excited, nervous?"

    See where that takes you.
