I dont tell anyone about being gay, I thought I could trust him enough to discuss it with him. It did seem he really wanted to get to know me even if it was just friendship -but it did feel I was doing the talking sometimes. Maybe I am worrying about the whole situation too much - it is not like we have much time to talk in work anyway. It just feels very stressful and frustrating because he has changed his attitude so abruptly. I dont wont to confront him about it.

I am male, 25 and in the closet. There is a male co-worker at work that I know is gay (he hadnt told me and I hadnt told him). I started saying hello to him and asking him how he's get on with work related things. Then he kept staring and glancing at me regularly - we just seemed to look at each at the same time. He also made a point of getting my attention a number of times. But since I am in the closet and shy I got nervous with his intense eye contact and kept looking away. I even started avoiding him and he seemed to avoid me - but after all that I still maintained a good friendship and kept talking to him depsite not knowing him that well. He has never asked me if I am gay - and the whole situation got me down so much I made a fool of myself one day and said, "Can I talk to you sometime - I could do with some advice' he was so distant I just said ' it doesnt matter' Now I never see him he just seems to avoid coming anywhere near me - the glances are still happening but not as often.
