Please help, this boy likes me but I'm not sure I like him back!:(?

Okay too start off with...I'm gay, I'm happy with it and I don't care what homophobic abuse you'll throw at me- it simply will bounce off leaving no effect over me.

Okay I need help.

There's this guy I just met and he's lovely:D I love, love, love him but only really as a friend:/ The thing is he likes me...as in...he has a crush on me. But I don't like him like that, at least I don't think I do...I value his friendship so much and I would give him a go for a relationship but I'm scared that if it doesn't work that our whole friendship destroyed and that's the last thing I want because he means so much too me! I'm scared that by not going out with him I'll break his heart...also if I do have a relationship with him I'm worried that sex will take over the actual love:/ He's my first ever gay friend and I can tell him stuff I couldn't even tell my best straight guy and girl friends:/ So losing him would be shit :/

I'm that sure if I am gay though...that's the other thing...I'm confused...I would like to think I was. I've liked girls in the past but they never feel the same. So having a guy like me feels nice...at least I thought it would...

Opinions&advice would be appreciated:) xoxox

Tell him that you think he is a really cool, nice guy and you love having him as a friend but don't want to mess it up because of a relationship. I had to do this with one of my friends (girl) and we are now still the best of friends. Good Luck!

If it was not sor your age and if i did not know you so well, I would think you was the guy i like ha ha :D
Well i like this boy but i am probably sure he knows but he could be like you, Thinks i am nice but never wants to date me, So you know, We could carry on being good friends, And yeah i would be a little heart broken and would still be waiting to date him, But that is life and i would have too move on.
So maybe just be good friends with him still and just try to let him realize nothing would happen, Or try to drop not to obvious hints and make out your straight or something, I have seen it work a lot, If you want help with it, As we talk, I can help you because, I have tricked my friends into thinking i am straight for like 3-4 Years now and none of them noticed am gay, I kinda got good at acting and lying ha ha :D
