I've never confessed to any of my crushes before.

You mean we're supposed to let them know? 8O

In all honesty some bad experiences from childhood have tainted many such opportunities of disclosure. While a couple from teens/adulthood were obviously non-reciprocal, chances are they already knew anyways and there have been one or two that if disclosed could have been potentially great girlfriends.

Am going through a personal re-evaluation atm but strive to be more open about such things in the future. Need take take life less seriously, after all.

Ive had alot of supresed crushes - it may be strnge, I dont know, but prety much any othr man who is remotly friendly or kind to me, I automaticly think abuot havin a sexul relationshipp with him if nothin else - maybe it is my way of showin an intens gratitude for giving me kindnes, somthing I am not used to. When I ask if thy wuold like to have sex thuogh, I somtimes am met with a staunch admitance that thy are heterosexul strictly, so I guess those are crushed crushes, thogh sometimes I do get lucky lol.

I’m straight, I’ve had a few crushes and I did absolutely nothing about them. I don’t even know if I could have done anything that wouldn’t be even worse. I’ve never been in a situation in which, for some reason or other, relationships didn’t seem completely unthinkable.

Hundreds of times and always suppressed it.
I was at primary/elementary school during the time when HIV/AIDS was first released into the general public so all the other boys at school were very anti-homosexuality and I guess I felt their disgust was justified. I felt disgusted when my mother discovered me and another boy cuddling in secret when we were about three or four years old so I suppose I always knew instinctively that there was something not normal about it.
