I obviously don't know you or your friend. As a neurodivergent cis man, amd part of the LGBTQ+ Community, I had a fair share of very awkward interactions. In many cases, people comming out / transitioning die not change my behavior around or with them, or made me ask those kind of questions. But sometimes, I really get confused. Ĺ
And ai asked the question "should I be worried we may hook up and loose our friendship". I asked it because it happened to me with someone. We hooked up, we broke up, and lost all.
I would ask him about this question, why he thinks it is a question worth asking.
Speculation is always the worst advisor
I asked and he said that it's because he approaches conversations with women with the intention of fuck-cum-sleep. Needless to say, the friendship is over.
jesus fucking christ, wtf
Outch. Would have made the same call in this case
