In high school, I dm'd a guy in my class "you're handsome bro"
His response was something like, "you too man I appreciate it!"
We both assumed each other were straight after that, but like a week before graduation, he randomly tells me he had a crush on me. And when I tell him I felt the same, he was like "damn I assumed that DM was probably only a compliment"
Lost opportunity for love because he ignored the โno homoโ rule. Tragic.
Does this guy think straight men often slide into the DMs to tell other men they're handsome?
