I am in love with a guy who is already in a relationship

DEAR DEIDRE: I AM in love with a guy who is living with someone else.

This makes it difficult for me as I really love him.

I think he feels the same about me. I am a guy of 17 and he is 18. He keeps saying his boyfriend must never find out we talk on Facebook.

We do this for a few days and then he gives me the cold shoulder and I don’t hear from him for a while.

Friends say I am playing with fire and that I will get hurt if I keep in touch with him.

But the fact is I really want him. Am I a bad person for feeling like this?

DEIDRE SAYS: You are not bad but this guy has given you no reason to hope that anything will change.

He is living with his boyfriend because he wants to.

You have to make the decision to move on and find someone new.

If this is linked to other issues for you, my e-leaflet Gay Resources explains where to find support.
