Hey all,
I'm looking for some advice. Actually, maybe it's more like strategy! I've always considered myself straight but have wanted to try something with a guy for a long time. In the past I have always turned down the opportunity for one reason or another (not my type, we knew too many people mutually, etc.) until I met this guy at my workout class. He was very straight-acting, which I prefer, and I wouldn't have had a clue he was gay if I hadn't found his facebook profile!
It didn't take too long for me to pick up the signals that he was interested (I'm somewhat of a looker, haha) but I was a little too shy to reciprocate in such a public setting, so I think he wrote me off as just another straight guy and moved on. I was planning to give him a pleasant surprise though. I would soon be moving out of my place that I shared with 2 roommates and into a place of my own. I decided that I'd wait until I was in my new place so we could be alone. But, as luck would have it, I caught a terrible infection (note: not an STD!) that put me in the hospital just 2 days before that move. By the time I recovered and got back to class, he was gone. I ended up finding his email through the aforementioned facebook page, and we exchanged a few notes, mostly telling him of my health issues, but have lost touch since then.
So I guess what I'm asking for here are any ideas for an approach other than "hey, remember me? let's have sex!" It's not customary for me to be so forward, not even with the opposite sex, and I know I could be more aggressive since I'm confident he'd accept my offer, but I think because we're talking about my first time with a guy I'm very hesitant.
If you've made it this far, I appreciate you reading this and look forward to any tips you might have! Thanks!
