<human>: ugh. I hate doing things like these..in fact i never have and hopefully never will again, but i dont have anyone else to talk to. i am a heavily and well closeted teenage homosexual. my best friend and i have known each other for about 6 months now, he is awesome, and ambiguously sexual. (and now we see the archetype forming, sigh.)

i don't know, i had gone between being convinced of his straightness-to utterly positive that he must be gay. i am no longer unsure of his sexuality. he's not bigoted, or anything, but he has some misconceptions about what gay men should be, and assumed that unless they were incredibly flamboyant they weren't gay, and if they were, it was immensely creepy.

i almost died when i heard this from him. up until then i had thought, almost for sure, that he knew, that he realized that i was gay, and that maybe he even liked me back a little? i don't know. this turned into a sob story, but my question to you, is what to do from here?

i really do care about him so much, and i don't want the fact that i'm gay fucking up our friendship. we had done mundane things like change in front of each other and other horseplay nonsense like that, and i fear that he will find the fact that he did that with a gay guy freak him out. (i never really thought of it in a sexual way- i don't know..but i feel horribly guilty as though i almost had taken advantage of him..) i can get over my feelings for him. that will just take time, i guess, but i dont want to lose him as a friend.

Can you give me a shortened version of the text?
<bot>: I thought my best friend was gay and, was wrong, want to come out to him, but afraid of his reaction because of things we had done together.
