    Does she have social media you can message her at? Send her a message on messenger and see how her replies are. :slight_smile: Just ask how she is. From there you can invite her out :slight_smile:

    yeah we're facebook friends.
    idk if I could just strike up a chat randomly without a purpose! it would be totally uncharacteristic of me. But maybe I can say like 'hey you mentioned so and so last week, id love to hear more about it'.

    I just have to get the guts to do it lol.

    ill keep you all updated if I work up the courage.

    Well, it's definitely something to be on your guard against. I don't think I'll allow what happened with V to happen again because I'm going to be watching for it. But, when I was just starting to get comfortable with my attraction to women, I met her, and she was lovely and friendly and caring. I was dooooooomed. You may avoid these situations if you go more directly into dating women who openly identify as gay... find them through apps or groups, etc. And avoid any new friendships with straight girls for a while.

    Who knows when I'll be ready. I'm still caught up with my girlfriend in a LDR, who there is no future with. I'm not even divorced yet but it's inevitable. I'm at the place where I'm lonely and would love some company but still so sad. I joined a dating site that allows you to look for friends, but no one on there is looking for friends.

    And when I'm ready to date. I will still be living in the same house as my ex. I'm sure that will be a sell! I'm feel doomed. Why am I coming out again? What is all this going to accomplish?

    Aww hugs, I know it's tough but you are not doomed. You are coming out so whatever happens you can say you were true to yourself and the best you that you can be and that in itself will bring you confidence and self worth. Sure there are people who will be put off by your situation but that just means they are not the right person for you. Everyone comes with their own baggage that is yours and someone else's might seem like nothing to you but to them it seems bad. You have many qualities to offer someone.

    UPDATE: Last Saturday I was with a friend who's boyfriend went to school with the girl I'm crushing on, and without me saying ANYTHING about my crush, my friend said "she gives me gay vibes but I think shes closeted" :astonished:

    This is the second person who randomly tells me that, which means she for sure gives off vibes *shrugs*

    I've been actively interacting with her more on social media. Liking her posts and such. Still haven't worked up the courage to ask her about her networking events.

    She has a boyfriend? If she does, then I will not support this! Haha. Just be careful. :slight_smile: It's okay to be friends with her, if she's really straight then she wouldn't assume that you like her just by speaking with her so youll be fine :slight_smile:
