About Me
- Name: Gay Mormon
- Location: United States
I was first introduced to blogging by one of my professors during Winter Semester 2004. I didn't really understand it then, and I'm not sure I do today. However, I have learned that a blog can basically be anything you want it to be. With that in mind, I have created this blog as a way to describe my little conflict. Here's my problem: I'm gay and I'm Mormon. If you don't know already, the two don't mix very well. Though very few people will likely ever read this blog, I plan to use it as a way to describe my struggles, figure out my emotions, and work to overcome my problems.
To begin, I was born and raised in Utah. I'm the youngest in my family, and I have to admit that being the youngest is the best. I graduated from Brigham Young University in 2005. I'm currently working a great job in a great area. (How's that for vague?) I don't have any special talents, but I do enjoy singing -- though I don't do it well. I'm also a fan of politics -- conservative. I know, it's ironic that I'm conservative and a homosexual. Anyhow, if you have questions about me, just ask.

If he calls to arrange another get-together (or you call him), maybe you could throw in a comment along these lines: "I really enjoy spending time with you. It's nice to hang out with a friend instead of someone who is interested in getting physical."
If he's interested in sex, and that's all he's interested in, he may suddenly have reasons for not being available to get together. If he's interested in sex, but also interested in being your friend, he may be disappointed, but then stop pursuing sex and shift to "friends only" mode.
The latter was the case with me and one of my new friends just after I came out. Once I said (in a gentle way) there would be no sex, that awkward matter was off the table, and we became really great friends.

This happens... just be nice and if he TRIES anything with you, you can politely decline. But as i'm sure you know, there are ways to hint at him that youre not interested, BEFORE it gets to that point. :)
