Advice from R. Eric Thomas.
By R. Eric Thomas: I’m a straight woman and good friends with a gay male. Lately, I’ve wondered if we could be more than friends.I’m willing to ask if he’d consider it but not at the cost of the friendship. What should/could I say to him to gauge the possibility?: My memory is a little hazy, but it seems like Jennifer Aniston starred in a movie about this exact scenario at least twice in the early-2000s. It never really worked out.
He would like for me to move in with him and he offers a better financial situation than what I am dealing with. Living together is going to be complicated because he’s made part of your relationship transactional. Even if you say you’re going to keep it platonic, will he honor that or will he push that boundary?
Further, it appears he has told his wife that he helped pay for me to go to college. That is a boldface lie!
