Firstly, congratulations on coming out - as a male - as @only1jae has just pointed out to you we seem to be well in the minority here.

Not sure where you are from or your age (and I don't really need to know) so I'll keep this general. You have I assume (and that is a word that makes an richard simmons of u and me) an understanding of your own culture so you know what is considered acceptable and normal between two guys - where you live.

Here is probably the really big thing : Once you come out as gay, you can't get back in the closet. So before you think of doing anything be really certain in your own mind that you know who YOU are, and that you have accepted yourself. In our story Kongpob is really fortunate that Arthit has come to consider him as a friend. So he keeps the secret. Declaring your feelings to someone who is in serious denial can be as disastrous as your average macho straight guy. They may not keep it a secret. Are you ready to handle that ?

As Arthit mutters to himself in the mirror. Act normal. How well do you know the guy ? Does he have a girlfriend ? How well do the pair of youse get on ? Get inside his personality (not his shorts). You may find it difficult not to become possessive and jealous of his other friends but you need to try. First and foremost make friends with him - you only say he is a roommate, not already a friend. After that, let things develop. Do not do anything that might make him feel threatened. Kongpob asked Arthit to go shopping with him in payment of the bet and as Arthit replied "That's all ?". I think in the book I read somewhere that they then went to the cinema, but by then that would have been in Arthit's comfort zone. Now if Kongpob had made the bet - sit in a darkened room with me for two hours ! Keep the guy feeling comfortable when you are near.

He may realise that you are showing signs of having feelings for him. That is then for him to deal with. Hopefully by not asking the forbidden question in the way Arthit did. Sadly he may not be capable of accepting your attentions. Better to keep a good friend and put it down to life's experience.

Take your time, and above all else be VERY careful on the Internet with what you give away about yourself to strangers. There are some very weird people out there (cackles like Ming the Magnificent and rushes off to check on his death ray gun !)

Wow thank you so much for your advice. Actually we are very close friend. And he's the one that asked me for living with him as a roomate.

There's a lot story that i want to tell, but english is not my first language, so i can't explaine much. But, once again, thanks for the advice.

I really admire Bittersweet's descrition of Arthit and Kongpope's relationship compared to other BL, as well as the writers' + the actors' depiction of them. It's significantly more realistic.

Not every single relationship between two guys is super touchy-feely, especially if they aren't aware if the other likes guys or not. Their interactions aren't composed solely of stilted conversation mixed with awkward touching solely to appeal for skinship fans; you can actually see how their relationship changes, through words, actions, and very detailed body language. You can see the struggle that both Kongpope and Arthit both have with reconciling the fact that they like guys, and how self-denial and an issue with identity isn't always something that can be turned into comedy. There aren't any unrealistically "bad" or "good" characters, or manipulative pieces of trash; it's people that are trying to get on with their daily life.

It seems odd, but one thing that really stood out to me is the fact that their schoolwork is actually brought into the picture (their essays, books, HW, etc.) Idk if it's just because I'm still in school right now. It isn't  dismissed as "the main characters are just really bad at studying." Their lives are based around how their college life goes, including their academic prowess, while it still includes funny anecdotal stories of drawing portraits of a teacher's face or praying during a test. It just makes it seem all the more realistic

 

Ahh :/ I've had a similar experience, but with a best friend. All I can say is, good luck. Do you know if he also likes guys, or not? 

 

 

I don't know. Maybe not. But he likes to backhug me when we are sleeping. And i take that as a casual friend hug, since he did that without any intention.

And that's really torturing me.

Hi, i just create an account here. 

I've been quite long as a silent reader, but today i just can't help to share my story.

I'm a guy and i've been living with my roomate who also a guy of course.

I just found out about SOTUS last month and now i'm totally fell in love with this series. All this time i always secretly watch SOTUS in my room while i'm with my roomate without him knowing it. And as i follow this series, i think i'm just realised that probably i have a crush on him. And this feelings is keep stronger and stronger each day.

I know this is really out of topic. I just wanna share with you guys, since i have nobody to talk about this.

And also thanks a lot to @delightful for the sub.
