Bi friend? Help?

[GarretGomes14]

So i had this friend who was close. And we would do everything together, he was my best friend.
Well one day (while at a summer camp) we were changing too go swimming and all the guys were changing together and vice-versa for the girls... So Me and him felt uncoformtable changing infront of everyone so we went into a corner... And at first I changed... He glanced a few times but lets be honest who wouldn't? So i didn't pay much attention to the fact, also we had seen each other naked numerous times (but I never gave it any thought). Anyways later it turned out he was bi, he liked me, and we kinda grew apart :( ... should I still be friends with him? I'm not against gays but I dont particularly wish to be bf and bf... Help?

It seems like a silly thing to lose a friendship over. If you still like him as a person and a friend, just let him know that you still want to be friends but don't want to take it any further. That's what I did when I found out my best mate was gay....

I don't get why if you seen each other naked numerous times, that one time would make that kind of difference. just because he's bi doesn't mean he can't understand your straight. boys in puberty check each other out all the time and like you said, who wouldn't? so still not really seeing a problem or any reason not to be friends with him if you want to.

[SillyShyGuy]

Be honest with him about not wanting to date him. Tell him that you still want to be his friend.

I think you may lose a friend for no real reason. He was honest with you about being bi, so be honest with him that you want to be friends like you always have. No romantic interest

Exactly. I entirely agree with this.

Just cuz he's bi doesn't mean you automatically have to become his boyfriend. You can stay friends without any strings attached. If he's a good friend I'd suggest going for that option

Well said, I recommend taking heed to his advice.

A few have said it already. Don't loose him as a friend, just because he is bi. Sometimes friends do drift apart, it happens. But if it's solely because of that, it's a shame. Chat to him, do what you would normally do before you knew he was bi and see if the spark is still there.

Sure be friends maybe you could jerk off together or each other.;);):D

You don't have to be his boyfriend but I think it's bad to break a friendship over him being gay. What is it with guys who think that if a friend turns out he is gay that they want to date you (Sorry for that). But if he wants to be your bf just say no and say you wanna stay friends it's terrible if you would break a friendship over this all

[clay morrow]

you shoul remain friend with him but let him know you are not intrested in being in a relationship with him

[Babs]

you can have a bi friend and not date. Unless you have a large reason as to why you shouldn't be friends with him, like maybe if he wasn't a nice person, I think you should be friends with him. Just make it clear to himthat you're not interested in him romantically.

[GoGoDiego]

The least thing you should is accept it. Remember, nobody cares if your lesbian, gay, bi, or a tranny, respect is the bottom line for that friendship.

[Pulp501]

Yeah, you should be friends with him. Just because he likes you doesn't mean anything is going to happen. What do you think he's gonna do?
