hey bros, i’ve been a lurker on lemmy ever since the silly reddit API thing happened, and i think this is my first post?? anyway, there’s this guy on my high school’s robotics team that i really like. i should mention that this is a private christian school in oklahoma which is why i’m making this post in the first place. im unsure if this guy is really straight though. you see, he goes out of his way to see only me. maybe he’s just a really great friend who wants to see me, maybe not. but also the night before our state competition, he uh, let me sit on his lap and later on he uh…spooned me for a solid 2 minutes after the other guy in our airbnb we were staying at for the night fell asleep. he kinda played it off at the end like he was messing with me and maybe he was but i’m not sure. there’s some other stuff too like the way he talks to me. he doesn’t talk the same way to anyone else. i really want to ask him out but im just really worried how he’ll take it. pretty much all the guys at my school except a handful of them are homophobic…
oh yeah in case any of you are curious, im the programmer for the team and he’s one of the builders
If he is in such a homophobic environment, I wouldn’t make a big deal out of it. Don’t start with “Hey, wanna go on a date with me?”. Maybe do instead “Hey, do you want to go for a run with me?”. And just go from there. Or maybe just go straight for the date idea… I don’t know… You are the best and only person to know the right way to go about it.
Regarding the interest. The dude is spooning you and you sit on his lap and all that. I think it is fair to say that there is some interest there.
