AboutMatt Expertise I can answer questions on coming out, sexuality confusion and reactions from friends and family - I have been through all of this myself. Feelings, thoughts and does the "he/she like me" stages too. I may be younger than some of the experts but I am talking from 1st hand experience and I know what it is like. Having problems at school or don't know how to tell people? I can help with that too. Don't hestitate to ask me your questions, I am here to help.
Experience I am a bisexual teen who has come out to family and friends. I have been through the stages of "Am I gay or am I bi?", the reactions and opinions of students at school and also had trouble from people because of my sexuality. It is something I feel strongly about and want to help others, like AllExperts helped me.
Education/Credentials I am still in full-time education and have taken my GCSE's. I have got 10 A-C at GCSE and am now at Sixth Form studying for my AS & A Levels in ICT, RE & Psychology.
Question well first of all I am the one who just asked you the question about coming out to ppl and I would have made this a follow up question but this is completely different.
you see there is this guy at school that is really nice and stuff and I sort of think he is coming on to me.
first of all during swimming at school we had free time to do what ever and we were getting bricks from the bottom of the pool and once when he came up he groped me and I don't mean like he grabbed the closest thing I mean he looked, reached for my crotch and squeezed (gently) and he also started feeling up my crotch with his foot and we both just ignored it.
also during science (witch is the only other class we have together) we both sit next to each other (by choice)and during class he scoots really close and our legs are touching and so are our feet also he has no problem getting really close to me like grabbing something on the floor and getting his face really close to my crotch. also he writes poetry and he never has let me see any of them even though we are kind of close friends and he shows it to other people.
so my question is do you think he likes me and if so how should I ask???
Answer Hey Levi,
Erm, there is a chance he could like you, or it could be accidental - but how many coincidences do people have?
To find out/ask if he likes you, you should test the water in the same way you will when coming out to your brother.
Firstly, does this guy know you are gay? If not, come out to him firstly then see what his reaction is. If he reacts in a positive way, more of a chance he is into you, if not, then there is your answer.
So, if he reacts well, you could then "test the water" by asking if he has ever thought about being with a guy or his opinions on it. If these are all gaining good responses, then you can move in and come out with that you "have feelings for him more than you do a friend". If at this moment he is shocked or anything, then you should stop. This is the moment you leave it and let him do what he wants. But if any time up to here you get negative comments from him, leave it.
