    At least straight people can openly flirt with each other, which is already hard as you have to become friends, close friends, romantic relationship, maybe a kiss or hug and so on. I can't even start at first base. I'm literally attracted to 4/5 of the guys i see on a daily basis and its driving me crazy.A cute guy asked me to play table tennis and in my mind i was like, " He's talking to moi! I do manage control these feeling to focus on my work but the feelings are still there.

    Hahahha this kind of happened to me on my first year of college (I'm on my 4th now). I was overwhelmed by all the cute, handsome and sexy guys and I always found something to say they were gay, so it was a lot worse for me. Thank God I'm better now, I still drool when I see cute, handsome or sexy guys, but I'm better at controlling myself. Now I just assume everyone is straight, unless they are the obvious gay guys.

    haha same here. I have to keep checking myself to make sure I'm not staring at every guy who walks past.:wink: I try and cope with a vivid imagination and some hot porn clips. And some cereal.:grin:

    I don't really have an answer to that. I'm personally very shy and socially awkward so I came to the conclusion I will die alone in a flat somewhere...

    But if you still have hope (and you should) I guess Internet dating may be a way to explore. Or finding a LGTB club somewhere.

    Don't give up!

    You could try to flirt with some, if you know they won't frown upon it. :icon_bigg

    You are still in the closet? Now I can understand why you feel this way a lot better. I guess you are the same as I was when I started college indeed, being closeted and all that. I guess that after coming out this year I could finally be more carefree about things like flirting or saying this guy is cute blah blah. I don't understand your circumstances and why you need to be closeted for several more years but, believe me, once you do this feeling of apprehension will subside and you will feel more relaxed.

    in the same boat with ya, dude. I'm in my junior year and literally all I want is a boyfriend. or even just a kiss would suffice tbh. a random hookup wouldn't dissappoint me either. I guess we just gotta be more out there and wait till the right time. bummer

    I also don't really know how to flirt or start flirting so could also use some tips

    I agree completely. You'll feel much more at ease once you're not in the closet anymore.

    If you're going to clubs, people may see you and may suspect things, but it's a good way to meet new people.

    Ahh I see. I can totally understand why you would not come out then. If it's for your own well being then try to be discreet when you flirt with other guys and all that.

    As for flirting advice, I'm embarrassed to say that I have no idea how to flirt with people. I'm totally awkward and I'm sure they will burst laughing at my weirdness than actually think I'm flirting :lol:

    Maybe someone with more experience can help you on that aspect. Good luck Chrome :grin:
