Ok so there's this guy who's friends with my best friend and I'm kinda friends with him. I have recently become obsessed with him tho, I think he's kinda hot and I would experiment with him but I wouldn't date him. The problem is I think he's 100% straight and maybe a bit homophobic, I'm not sure. I also just want to be good friends with him, like to the level where I can just say do u wanna hangout and he be like sure. I guess what I want out of this thread is advice on how to get him out of my head cause I think it might be affecting my friendship with my best friend (I mention this guy a lot around him). I've had a crush before and Igor over her by not seeing her which destroyed our friendship but also my love for her. Now though it's summer and I'm thinking about him more than I did before, I want to include him in every event I arrange with my best mate. If u read this far thanks, I guess I also just needed to write this out and see if anyone has ever experienced anything similar. Btw no one knows I'm straight very curious/bisexual

If he's homophobic buddy, you can do better!:) I have no advice on how to get over someone as I am struggling with that myself. My advice would be try to limit how much you talk about him and in time you should get over him!!:)

Honestly being straight up with him could be worth it. Speak and see how he acts if you talk about a gay person

If he's that homophobic how was it you guys messed around?
And if your gay and he knows it, how's that work?
He's your best friend you said?

Well I think you can handle being friends with this guy. I also think you will be able to sense if he would like to experiment with you too. You can talk about sexual things and ask him if he ever had thoughts of doing things with other guys and see how he answers. Good luck to you.

This is actually some of the best advice I've ever got on a forum, thanks guys! I don't actually know if he's homophobic, but if someone came up to him from behind and gave him a hug as a joke, he would probably jump away and laugh whilst saying no no. I think the area I'm from people using being gay as an insult so guys would never indicate they were gay in any way if they were in a big friendship group so that might affect how he acts as it's the norm I guess
