Hi, today I found out that my crush (who is also my close friend) is gay. I found out through my best friend because he kissed a guy at a party last night. I'm cool with the fact that's he gay and I want him to be happy, but I don't know how to stop having feelings for him. I've really fallen for him and it's tearing me up that I can in no way be with him. He'll always be my friend but I don't wanna feel this way about him because not only is it upsetting but it's awkward. Please help, B x
Hello love. This is a hard one to help with, as there isn't a lot of things, which you can do. Of course, I think you should tell him or I do just advise you to. He can't change the fact, that he's gay, but he might be bisexual. I haven't had any situation, like this, but my friend had and she just took it as nicely as she could. She didn't tell him, but they grew closer and now they look at guys together. I know it's silly and all, but I think you should try to tell him, if you feel comfortable doing so. Otherwise just try to be friends with him. If you can't get the crush to kind of cool off, you can take a little break or keep yourself busy. I had a crush on my ex for a long time, but I then chose that it wasn't gonna turn out again, and I have moved on. I just advise you to talk it through with someone you trust, keep yourself busy or even just try to forget the crush.I know it hurts to know you will never be with him, but in some sense, there is a fifty percent chance, that he might be bisexual or it was just a one time thing. Try to talk to him about, if he really is gay and just tell him, that you are there. Lots of Love, sweetheart!-Mille.
