There is nothing easy about our initial forays into the world of interpersonal relationships and dating but it IS exciting, new, wonderful and horrible all at the same time!<br /><br />I can't help but smile and wish you the very best in this part of your journey of self discovery as you reach out to others and seek. All of these feelings are a part of life's magnificent promise. To know and to be known. You are doing great and I am proud of you.<br /><br />daemon<br /><br />P.S. Remind me to share someday my story about the very first boy I ever asked out. :)<br /><br />daemonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09153553633523797522noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7915331161078019972.post-24476740549167618502012-11-17T21:24:25.588-05:002012-11-17T21:24:25.588-05:00I'm proud of you for having the courage to go ...I'm proud of you for having the courage to go back period.

This is what sucks about being gay. Unless you meet someone online or in a gay club, how do you know the guy is gay?

I hope you're not too frustrated with ...Hey JF,<br />I hope you're not too frustrated with yourself -I think you did really, really well. It's too bad your salesman didn't seem as interested the second time around, but that might not mean anything. Maybe he was having a lousy day or felt bad about screwing up at the checkout. Regardless, *you* did everything right. I love how fearless you were with the follow-up. Telling him you would return and calling him by name were good touches too. And I don't think you should feel bad about not flirting more - he wasn't really giving off that kind of vibe this time. <br /><br />Your last paragraph totally makes sense. Not knowing if someone is gay has got to add another layer of complexity that I can't begin to understand. I'm sure you'll get some good advice in that area. I would guess, though, that even if your guy is straight or already in a relationship, he'll be flattered if you ask him out. That's how I would feel.<br /><br />Good luck!!
