    Hey! I'm not sure if I am gay or bisexual. I've had a boyfriend before, but not a girlfriend. To me, the idea of having a girlfriend is a bit exhausting. I also find that I get along with and can talk to guys more easily than girls. Thats because I'm interested in holding a conversation with a dude more than with a girl.

    It started in kindergarten....I had a crush on another boy named Dalton. So yeah, I started early. I "came out" to my family in 2014 but of course, it's 2017 and weve never talked about it. I live with my grandma, and she just doesnt seem too ok with the idea of man with man haha. It used to bother me, but hell, I dont let it bother me. A good thing though is all my friends and other family who know are supportive of me!

    Ok so....lets get started. I"ve had a crush on my straight friend Tyler since 8th grade. (I'm a sophmore in High School now.) And he knows I like him. Thing is, recently, he's been showing signs that he likes me. I was texting him one night, like a week ago, and we were talking about his birthday. I said I got him a birthday gift and of course his reply was "It better not be a dick pic." (It wasnt. I actually did get him something.) BUT hes seen a dick pic before. I wont get into that, unless yall want me too. Anyways, heres an exact copy of our text messages. (Yes, im typing them out for yall.)

    Him: It better not be a dick pic
    Me: Lol its not but dont be scared to ask me for one. Just sayin. But for real I got you something.
    Him: What is it?
    Me: Boy you've gotta wait. Your birthday isnt for two weeks.
    Him: I'm a man, not a boy.
    Me: And I admire that about you.
    Him: Lol.....
    Me: Show me. ( I was referring to , show me how youre a man)
    Him: No can do, I can only show my relationship partner.
    Me: Ok cool. Sorry dude. You know ive liked you since I told you I liked guys. I like to pull your strings every now and then.
    Him: Its cool.


    OK soo. After those messages, hes been acting funny. I'm 80% sure he might like me. Let me know what you think.

    Hey JohnHalbert,

    Welcome to EC!:slight_smile:

    What indications do you have that Tyler might like you back in the same way you feel about him?
