I came out about 14 years ago and I have gone on a few dates but nothing ever serous. I went to a technical program last year. and i met someone, i approached it as just friends. I didn't know if he was gay. he is considerably younger than me, so i don't want to come off as a creep, but out of the blue he texts me to see how i am doing. I asked if he wanted to get together implying just friends. so should i just ask if he's gay? and if he is interested in me?

@tody,
Who knows?

Apparently he wants to get together. Maybe he wants to ask you for a loan. ( just kidding, but why assume or expect anything)

Just go for coffee and see what’s up.

@tody,
Why not see if there's a spark, first. He might just be a lox socially.

@bobsal u1553115,
What do you mean by lox?

I've looked it up and none of the two definitions apply, liquid oxygen or smoked salmon, there is a Yiddish word laks, which often is mispronounced as lox which means testicles, but that would only worked if he lacked them in social situations.

@izzythepush,
Here it's on the lines of "a cold fish", meaning there's no there, there.

My point was to get a feel for if there is a connection to made outside of sexual attraction.

I might wait to after he shows or doesn't show me a picture of his wife or girlfriend before I get into sexual identity, a conversation in this country that can have a response anywhere from, "So am I!" to murder, and all degrees in between.

Progressiveness and acceptance is not a homogeneous quality in the range of US citizens.

@bobsal u1553115,
well there seems to be something there like i said he is younger than me and it might be one of those things he isn't comfortable with. but he's a quiet type. as i said to a few friends, he could be a geek or an ax murderer i just cant tell and im typically good at reading people.

@Mame,
Right? these are things you have to ask Razz He could be carrying a small axe in his pocket, either that or he's happy to see him.
