Met this guy through IG a few months ago. We didn’t talk super frequently but definitely flirted when we did. Nothing overly sexual but that made it clear we found the other attractive. We quickly exchanged numbers and FaceTimed a few times.

Early on in our conversations, he invited me to hang out with him and his friends in ATL for pride. He’s from there and I’m from VA. I pretty much agreed from the beginning. The weekend finally came and I flew down here yesterday and will be staying for one more night.

It’s be fun. He has a massive friend group and they are pretty fun. I wish I had friends like this in VA but that’s another story. Anyway, while it’s been great, it’s also been way more platonic than I expected. Based on all our previous conversations, I imagined there would be some intentions on his side but nothing. I’ve tried to casually give him opportunities to make a move but he hasn’t.

Last night he started dancing with another guy which I didn’t care about at all. But after he asked if that was okay. Which was confusing because he’s been so platonic with me that I thought maybe I misread everything. But that made me feel like maybe he is aware. I said I didn’t know what his expectations were and he responds to get to know me and for me to have fun. Don’t really know how to take that.

Based on everything so far, it’s been very platonic and we haven’t really had a ton of time to get to know each other. But I still just wonder what changed. He picked me up at the airport and when I got out his car, the first thing he said was that he didn’t know I was so short. I’m 5’6. Not currently in the best shape I’ve ever been in. I can still see some abs but not like before. I’m also not particularly charismatic nor am I quiet as masc as I may initially appear.

I think all of this may be influencing how this trip is going. I guess I can’t be too annoyed since I’m at pride and he let me stay with him. But it’s weird sharing a bed with someone who I was pretty sure was interested but now is laying as far away as possible.
