You're standing in the library, talking with the librarian about a book you're holding. All in all, it's Pretty Insignificant Stuff.
A guy walks up just outside your peripheral, so you can't identify him, but you can tell he's facing the librarian and wants to talk to her.> Keep talking.> It'd be rude to keep talking if he has a question.You decide to acknowledge his presence and to terminate this discussion as quickly as possible.By reflex, or force of habit, or whatever, you turn to him, give a quick nod, "Hey," and try to close your conversation.> Say bye to the librarian.> Hold on, who the hell did you just nod to?> Catch a glimpse of him as you try to leave.> Turn again and study who you just greeted.Oh gosh! It's the resident Attractive Guy who Plays Sports!You've never talked to him, until now!And now you're looking at him (you know, again.)He gives you a Quizzical Look.> Maintain your composure.> Abort the conversation and run!> Fail to return your gaze to the librarian and blubber your goodbyes in the wrong direction.He and the librarian put on confused faces.> Coolly make an exit and head to second period.> Try to initiate a conversation with Captain Attractiveness.> Shakespeare away your inhibitions, very loudly, and pounce on his hawt bod.> Stumble out of the library.There's a strange sense of loneliness that comes as a part of the whole Gayness Thing, but that's probably the Oklahoma factor in the whole mess.Not that that keeps me from having Endearingly Awkward Moments with straight guys!The GSA here at the school dissolved last semester for - surprise! - lack of member participation or some shit.I wonder when I'll be able to make a happy relationship blog here :VI suppose I need advice or something.How To Find Guys For Individuals Lacking In GaydarYes, that'll do nicely :]
I've always thought it must be hard dating when you're gay. I mean, in a straight situation, the hard question is whether or not they're single. But how does one ask "Oh, by the way. Are you gay?" and sound convincing?
Guess it takes a lot of hanging out.Flip 'em.

I didn't think I would ever get worse advice than "walk up to him and ask him out."In all seriousness, there are probably other gay dudes at your school that you don't even know about, depending on your school's size.
And, honestly, why not just ask a guy out? Chances are he'll be flattered, if he isn't interested. If he's not a nice person or you know he'd react badly to your advances, you shouldn't be trying to get with him anyway.If all else fails, there are still tons of dating sites and forums. I bet there are a bunch of cool guys in your area.I dunno, he was really nice about the mishap where I hit him with a door, or that one time he walked into and almost knocked me over, and the other thing thirty minutes after I hit him with a door where I was trying to clean my angsty bleeding face in the bathroom ._.
It was lots of fun trying to explain why my forehead was bleeding >_>The school's student body is about 2,200 in number. There are about 900 students in 11th and 12th grade (I'm a junior, soooo)I guess it wouldn't kill me to go out with a sophomore though.Even if they can't attend prom.And oh my god asking people out isn't going to work if I have no means of transportation anywhere and no money and every guy here is conveniently a bible-thumping christian republican redneckWait, where do you live again?

AKA Utah.monland.I was about to say that your profile only listed a 'moronland' which for all I counted was an umbrella name for half of these states
A lot of times, children aren't the zombies their parents raise them to be.
Also, not all Christians are jerks - just so you know. :)
