GAY DADS REACT TO "IN A HEARTBEAT" | Dads Not Daddies

[@danielvoigt5538]

My first crush ended up to be different than others... I am currently 15, but I had a crush on this boy that had recently come out to me and only me, so I came out to him and only him when I was 13-14. A couple months later after full DAYS of hanging out with each other, we expressed our feelings towards each other and have been dating for 8+ months! We kept it a secret for the first month then basically came out to our school, as we went to an all boys school in New Jersey. 4 months in we told our parents, and because both of our parents were both pro-LGBT and in the musical theater business, it was pretty easy!

[@minerchord9939]

Daniel Voigt that's awesome! I hope you and your boyfriend are happy 😊

[@DadNDaddies]

SO GLAD to hear you've had a supportive environment! Thanks for sharing your story, Daniel :)

[@Joey-pq4mh]

Daniel Voigt I read your comment and I gotta say........ that made me so happy for you, I think I just might come out now

[@danielvoigt5538]

I'm glad I can sway that decision! It takes a long time to decide when and how you're going to come out, but if your family is pro or neutral to that idea it's much easier than it seems. Another thing to think about is what YOU want and what will make YOU happy or more free and open.

[@kieranwichall4037]

Daniel Voigt I envy what you have because I'm 14 and surrounded by straight people but I'm happy for you

[@dollofvoodoo]

I'm straight so I've never had to go through the "shame" of being gay. I remember when my HS friend came out to me as gay. At first I thought he was kidding because he was always a prankster, but when I realized he was serious, it had no impact on me. He was still the same person I knew and loved. Years later, we're still friends and I was blessed enough to attend with wedding.

[@JamesCreasyTrisk47]

Love this film! ❤️ I'm 71 years old, and I was a very late bloomer - in my early 50s; and that is when I went through my adolescence. 🙃

[@jomon324]

"I was having those kinds of feelings when I was 27" Wait... you're not 27? You look 27.

[@DadNDaddies]

jomon324 Nope! We're 30. Rob still says he's 29ish though.

[@illusionsfan1]

This was my reaction too! But I see they're 30... so now I'm less baffled... I had assumed that maybe they were like 36 instead when they said that and look amazing for their age (mind you they still do anyway haha!)

[@HusbandandHusband]

Loved this SO much!

[@forrestadventures5038]

[@lunar_dreams]

My first crush was when I was 13/14 on my bestfriend which is literally terrible bc I was scared to lose her but she helped me realize I'm bi sexual. I know she isn't interested in me but I still get butterflies being around her and it's so frustrating because I wish she liked me

[@funwithakthechannelwherean4510]

I'm 12 now. And this year feelings for my best friend developed. He knows, but doesn't like me back. I know that he doesn't like me back, but I wish he did. I don't know what I am yet because I'm only twelve, but I do have a crush on a boy and I'm a boy so... idk

[@pumpkintea4101]

I have a crush on one of my friends. I don't think she knows I like her (shes pans and I'm bi).. I still like to think we might have chance which, judging by our relationship, might work out. Maybe its just the fact that you wouldn't expect her, extremely tall and looks about 3 years older than what she actually is, and me, about up to her chin and looks a little underage...it doesnt help that one of my friends has a crush on her too and that 2 years prior, the friend I have a crush on said that she liked a different friend and hoped he liked her back. Plus we made a new friend (not my friend we just have the same friend group) and he seems to be spending a bit more time with her than before...I feel ashamed to say that I'm jealous...i want to tell her but I think I need to wait a while..

[@achilldepresseddemon3708]

Yo so like I've moved and my now close friend helped me realize I'm bi but I liked to her that I was bi from the start cuz right away she told me she was gay so she had someone to relate to. I didn't like her immediately but now I just love her. I'm scared she isn't interested in me even though rumors are spreading. I want to believe them but I can't.💔 I feel jealous when she's around our friends and I feel ashamed about everything...I like to think one day we could get together ❤️ She said she likes someone and I hope it's me I told her I like someone too... Hopefully we can get together...

[@fandomfeels-ye3fo]

Thats exacly what im going through. Im 15 now and i like my best friend. I dont think she likes me back but im afraid even if she did then our relationship would make things defferent between us and the rest of our friends.

[@leolancaster8847]

Mediocre Metallix just tell her (if u haven't) if she doesn't like u back then DW things can get better

[@tsunderes]

the whole "delayed adolescence" thing was very accurate. every LGBT person I have met in their 20s has always felt like they never got to experience crushes and small dating scenes. its a really interesting thing to think about.

[@gabrielleauclair254]

I have seen this short film a hundred times (and cried the first times), but now you made me cry again too :') So much emotion, and your reaction was beautiful

[@billmarshall5040]

Gabrielle Auclair Yes it was. “So many feelings “ , just adorable!

[@sleepy6658]

Oi... can you be my fathers? Like... please?

[@TheCaliMack]

Part of my channel's purpose was to be a haven for people to explore some gay games. But since I started seeing short films geared towards LGBT games, I'd been thinking of expanding to covering gay media in general. You know what is the sucker punch here? Being afraid to come out to family, that's what. I wish I could explain in detail the social blackmail and emotional manipulation my family uses to put me in a box but that's as apt a description as I can get. I guess my point is: when you get that courage to come out, go for it. Sashay with a flag down the halls or something. Live!

[@amandaelainewinn]

I had to pause at 2:31 when you guys were both making identical smiling faces, lol. Cutest thing ever... along with this film!

[@bonryu3565]

I'm so nervous to this guy in college. Everytime I see him I feel like crying because I feel like I'm not worth it for him. I learned he's gay and single now, and he's the only crush I ever had in my life. I always get so emotional when I see him, then I run to the bathroom and start crying because he's just the most beautiful man I ever seen in my life and I feel like I have no chance with him. I never experienced so much pain in my heart for a guy

[@DocMitchell69]

Anderson Benitez Just go for it honestly. It could be the best decision of your life. I know how it is, you end up losing someone you've yearned for so long, and the regret hits you so hard. It's nerve wracking, yes, but don't sell yourself short Anderson. You say that you don't feel worthy, but don't think that way. I'm not saying to give all you have to that person, but just show what you're truly worth to him and he just might see it. :)

[@TheMaru666]

[@flyingthief2394]

Hah, you reacted exactly the way I did :D My first crush was as early as age four. I still remember that she had her long brown hair always in fancy updos, she wore mostly pink, and she was the most fun around of all our friends. During nap time, she wanted to mess around a little and pretend I was a boy and kiss (like very young children do sometimes), and I agreed, trying to stay cool about it. Of course, I was much more into kissing than she was. After that, all crushes on boys and girls alike ended up being unrequited, but this is a memory that always makes me smile.

[@DadNDaddies]

Innocent young love amiright?

[@sonatamoon8187]

Oh, that is so sweet!

[@robcunningham7837]

you guys are too funny.... loved the film. I wish it was around when I was a teenager. It was tough growing up and not having anyone to talk to about what was going on. Now when a coworker comes to me and says their child just came out to them, I let them know it is ok and if either of them need someone to talk with that I was their for either of them. Take care....

[@DadNDaddies]

So important to be a resource for people (especially for those of us who didn't have any when we were young) right? Thanks for sharing :)

[@purplejon2]

I had a crush on a boy when I was at school in the 70's (yes I am old lol ). but I could never say or do anything about it. Like one of you said I had to stay away from him just incase I was called queer or beaten up. I like how nowadays things have become a little more easier for young people. This sort of film will make it easier for young people. We just need more of them :)

[@dcembervesalius]

I think my first crushes started happening when I was like 17-18. At the time though I didn't know that what I had were crushes; I didn't know about sexualities and what it meant to be gay and I always thought I just wanted to be friends with the guys I was crushing on, but as I look back now I clearly see I had crushes... I liked spending time with them and really wanted to spend time with them alone and not with everyone around and I got this sort of nervousness whenever I sat next to him. I find it sad though that I never knew before, but at the same time, it was safer for me, because I have been pushed back into the closet, even if my friends do know who I like and all... I just find myself enjoying the representation that we need.

[@fchino-jr.3340]

Awww, you guys are so freaken cute. I've seen this animated video a few times now, and every time I do, it makes me cry like an old queen. My first crush was on my 3rd. Grade teacher Mr. Tray (guess I always had a thing for older guys, 😬 lol!) it's about time there is a animated story with two gay characters falling in love with each other, it's very important step for the lgbt community in general. ❤️ Love & Hugs Guys.

[@DadNDaddies]

Thanks for sharing, it's so exciting seeing more LGBTQ+ representation in art and media!

[@cjcurmudgeon6714]

I am definitely experiencing the "delayed adolescence," I was raised Catholic and I learned to bury my queerness from such a young age that even when I had some crushes as a pre-teen and teen, I didn't recognize them. Now I'm 23 and I've accepted myself and crushes are so hard! I see a girl and she's so pretty and interesting but my heart beats too fast and I have no clue what to say! I feel like straight people are allowed to learn how to navigate romance and sexuality in an innocent and safe environment much earlier. And overall, it just helps with dating later in life. In retrospect, I definitely had a crush on one of my teachers when I was 15. She was from France and I would always try and stay after class to ask her how to say things in French or ask her about what books she was reading (we had similar tastes in books). I don't know if she knew I had a little crush on her, but she was always nice to me and gave me some good advice about high school drama so I appreciated that.

[@DadNDaddies]

Right?! We didn't get to practice through all of the awkward years. Now that we're adults we're expected to be emotionally mature and know how to navigate relationships but as LGBTQ+ folk, we have to kind of figure it out on our own without much of a safety net. It will be interesting to see how things change as kids are coming out younger and younger.

[@hannahstrayhorn1005]

As a bisexual, I had adolescent crushes that were both heteronormative and not. I think that the fear and awkwardness about first crushes is universal which is what is so amazing about this film! People who feel heteronormative love still experience the fear and shame of other people knowing what they feel. Everyone fears rejection. These feelings are signs of vulnerability...especially for young people! So this film normalizes the feelings that we have toward our own gender by showing how similar it is to the fear of being found out by someone you like of the opposite gender. I was afraid of what other people would think of me if they found out I liked a boy and particularly what that boy might think of me, so I typically only shared my middle school crushes with close friends. But even then, I would be afraid of what my friends might think of me. The judgment is there regardless of sexual orientation (although ABSOLUTELY much more so outside of heterosexual love). That's what makes this film so marvelously relatable for everyone!

[@seamus7585]

I knew i was gay since I was a little kid, although I didn't come out until I was 16. Took my boyfriend to prom (in 1984 Texas). I just never gave it a second thought; it all seemed perfectly natural to me. Guess I was just lucky, also, to have a tough outer shell. I was one of the "tell me not to do something, and that's exactly what I'm going to do" people. I'm not saying I wasn't cautious, but I also wasn't going to let someone else dictate my life to me. Made it through the AIDS crisis, but lost many friends along the way. Now happily partnered with a great guy for 2 years now (I'm 51). Still in the same city in Texas, waiting to see what tomorrow will bring. Peace and love to all.

[@kelliesmith4035]

First off I am bisexual, and I had my first crush around my fourth or fifth grade year. She was this perfect blonde, athletic and popular, and at the time I didn't understand my feelings toward girls and boys, so eventually we became friends and she started dating my cousin during our early high school days. Unfortunately I am not currently out to my entire family, for the sole reason that my parents are homophobic and would disapprove of any LGBT+ in their family. I however have came out to my sister, a few trusted teachers, and my friends. Maybe at some point in the future my parents will learn to accept the LGBT+ community, but until then I am closeted around them. Baby steps

The heart coming out from the chest actually portrays that you can not control how your heart feels. You have to hide your feelings but your heart says you have to chase your love

[@meh3532]

I had a crush on a guy from kindergarten all the way up to sixth grade and only him. People thought I was weird because when I saw him I would tackle hug him and bury my face in his chest. He made me feel happy and I loved that but then in sixth grade someone went through my stuff and found a notebook I kept of little drawings of me and him that had hearts. Everyone made fun of me from sixth to seventh grade and went as far as nominating me as junior high queen. We haven't talked since the day he saw my notebook and it still kind of hurts even though it's been six years since then, he was my only crush during my entire time in grade school.

[@tristenmartineau6000]

My first guy crush was in high school, and it was one of my friends that I knew liked me by the way he was around me. I am also a Mormon that is leaving on my mission soon. I know that we have been taught that these feelings that I have are bad cause they are homosexual but they are my feelings in the end. I love that one of you was Mormon so you understand how it is growing up. My first girl crush was in primary school.

[@thomashubbell8612]

Just found your channel on KZbin. Your are a beautiful couple and I love hearing about your relationship and children. I am in my 60s now and did not come out until the age of 50. I wish things in may day were as they are for you now. Love each other through good and bad times. Remember that there are many who have sacrificed their happiness in years gone by out of fear and you don't need to worry about that anymore so make the most of it!. Hugs

[@sennadelouea797]

Well, as a child I was terrified of men. This is because my matron's male accessory was abusive, hopefully just because I wasn't his. However, I had no problems talking to boys and being friends with them as I grew. My first crush at the age where I had interest in relationships was a girl I'd recently become friends with. When she confessed to me I shot her down by telling her I was confused and didn't know what I wanted at the time, which was true. I didn't realise how I felt until she was sent off to a detention center. She also showed me that my beliefs were more pagan than christian too, though she didn't do anything directly. I'll be grateful to her for as long as I live.

[@desireealexam]

I LOVE this short film! It was all over my Twitter and Facebook feed for a couple days after it was released. I think it can be seen as a message about love and all its complicated adolescent feelings between ANY couple; whether gay, straight, bi, etc. 💕💕

[@klyseet9346]

I'm bi and it really wasn't that difficult to come out mainly because I didn't really hide it lol. I would flirt with girls and even went to my cousins wedding with a girl (although she was and is only a friend) as my plus one. I still date guys though. It can be difficult because I tell my bf or gf that I'm bi and if they are the jealous type, they are suspicious of my friends and other people I talk to.

[@idcman6692]

I feel you 💓💓

[@drakkshells6906]

[@klyseet9346]

Christian Jolaoso Hello, and no. Bisexuals are people who like both men and women. Lesbian’s like just men. Although bisexuality is apart of the same community, we sometimes face discrimination in our own community for not being ‘enough’. We’re not gay or lesbian enough according to some gay men and lesbian women. I remember going to a lgbtq+ get together with some people and a lesbian, said that bisexuals were the sluts of the community because they liked both men and female. Some think that we’re hooking up with the same gender just for fun (although, I don’t think bi men are viewed in the same way; I think most see bi men as more gay). I’ve lately found out that I’m actually pansexual. I’m into a lot of different people, not just the traditional men and women🤷🏻‍♀️🤷🏻‍♀️

[@luce6764]

Relatable though I'm not like homosexual, I'm Asexual AND romantically attracted to the same gender. For YEARS I had these fake crushes on boys for the sake of ya know thinking it was the normal thing? First time I've met her and gotten to know her so well was the first time life changed for me, it was the first time the whole butterfly stomach effect that I thought was bs came true and I knew this was the norm for me, and not acting like I was straight. (I had friends who where gals but they weren't anything more and that is why the girl I met that gave me that feeling was well... true to my heart) I think I also shed a bit of tears from the video, good to see you guy's reaction! (Nice name btw)

[@ashleyabdalla57]

ever since i was small i'd have these deep infatuations with female figures on tv and (as cheesy as it seems lol) i'd make my female barbies kiss all the time and it never struck me as weird or odd until a friend called me a lesbian in 5th grade. i still didn't understand the concept that well but it stuck with me for a good while. i'd grow these crushes on my closest female friends and while they were nice i never understand why i felt that way. it took some research from google and a friend to tell me i was probably bisexual. (newsflash, im not. i'm a lesbian.) i considered myself pan until i realised i never really had any serious crushes on boys unless i was forcing myself to like one. im 15 now, and i've came out to most of my family. i don't know much about the future only that i hope that what i'm feeling is real and that it's not a phase or confusion. (as what some of the replies i got when coming out)

I'm a girl my first crush was a boy so it was totally normly in my brain then, one day I met up with my friend and, I didn't know what it was but I felt the same thing I felt with the boy. When I got home asked my mom if two boys can together and if two girls can together, she said "yes", "it's called gay and lesbian". The next day I saw my friend and realised I had a crush on her and on the boy! I AM BISEXUAL!

[@kyleiq1912]

i didn't have my first real crush til i was 17, before then i'd had "crushes" on boys in elementary school but really i just picked out the boy who dressed best and would say i liked him. i had crushes on celebrities, male and female, but i never fully acknowledged the female ones? i remember specifically feeling really weirdly excited when i found out megan fox is bisexual and i had no clue why lol. anyway, right before my senior year i realized i'm gay, and when i finally allowed myself to look at girls in a romantic light (i also grew up mormon, so as a kid i knew that Wasn't An Option) it came to my attention that i thought this girl that was in many of my classes was absolutely beautiful. she was on the dance team, and i felt really lucky because one of my friends was also on the team so i had an excuse to go to their performances and ogle her 😂😂 it definitely stayed very distant though, we had been friendly before but when i realized i liked her i psyched myself out too much to ever actually talk to her again, rip

[@graemenicholl2459]

You bring up some good points about how people who are attracted to the same sex can have a sort of delayed adolescence. I have had to think about that more and more lately and am hoping the process isn't too bad (who wants to go through double the equivalent teenage years?). I watched "In a Heartbeat" several days ago and hadn't thought of this topic at all. Great vid!

[@theepilepsyfamily3288]

When you guys cried in the video it made me cry too. Its a very emotional video.

[@brunofanp1926]

I had been dealing with same sex attraction since I was 10, but my first crush was when I was 12. It was a boy at school. I remember as soon as I got to my room I started crying. But that was when I accepted being gay.

[@dannysimion]

Awesome video. Definitely helps to get the message across in terms of who you love and no shame in that. The heart stole the show. Its so innocent and pure and lovable! Good reactions. :) Its hard to pretend it anyways.

[@Nicole-pj6be]

one of my first crushes was on a girl when i was around 11. her voice was cute and i felt the need to protect her. i luckily had a really understanding and knowledgeable best friend who didn't make me feel bad for being a girl who liked another girl. but i can really relate to what you said about idolizing your crushes. i'm 18 now and i still struggle with my crushes on girls. i feel like i'm still partially in denial. it feels like i just look up to them and wanna be like them. but i know that's not what my feelings are. like for example my current crush. sometimes i think i just really look up to her and wanna be like her, but i know that's not it because whenever she's around my face goes red and i get really nervous. one time she held my hand and i thought my heart was gonna burst out of my chest. it's very hard to explain.

[@ellierose2849]

My first crush was on my best friend around 1 year ago. After feeling like that for a few months, I told her and she took it ok but continued to reassure me that she was straight. A few weeks later, she kissed me. I was stoked! I thought she felt the same way about me as I did her. When I tried to talk about the kiss, she would refuse until finally she told me it was just an experiment. The kiss meant the world to me but nothing to her. She currently has a boyfriend.

[@KennyVert]

Thanks for sharing your reactions. Ya’ll make an adorable couple. I really loved this boy in high school who was in the grade below me. It was the type of thing where, when he smiled, he lit up the room for me. I shared my feelings for him when I was 2 years out of high school, and... it confused him. I think he always saw me as a brother, so, for him, it was like having his brother tell him that he had romantic feelings for him. He’s married now with 3 beautiful kiddos. After my senior graduation, I told him that I wanted to be like an uncle to his kids (since I knew we’d never be dads together), but then, two years later, I take the risk of telling him what I felt for him... and 10 years later, we do not talk. So glad that you two found love... you give me hope. ❤️💔❤️-Kenneth

[@shaunstapleton3197]

When I was in middle school, there was a boy my age that I had a crush on. I remember talking about him with my friends and wanting to talk to him (I remember following him after recess one time), but nothing ever really happened. This is probably because I grew up Mormon as well, where there was shame associated with being gay. I still think that shame affects me today, even though I have long since come out... I feel I might be limiting myself in getting into a relationship because of that shame as well.

[@crummycreator5548]

I had my first gay crush on my best friend at the time (7th grade). But I had though I was straight since before then I had always had crushes on boys! We would be very flirty towards eachother jokingly till I started thinking “wow I would totally date you” and “oh wow girls exist too”. It didn't last as they weren't the best person in my life but right after I met some really awesome friends that told me about being Bi and Pan and stuff!! I've been out to everyone since (luckily my parents are super chill!) I pretty much scream “gay” at school with my pride bracelets and dyed hair!

[@razzleberry041]

I've watched in a heartbeat like 20 times, and I still cry when the heart breaks and at the end.

[@StorminMormin91]

Wait, you guys are both gay and Mormon? Did I hear that right? Bi Mormon here, mid 20s. Joined when I was 16, knew I was gay at about 14 and came out then. Eventually realized that I could still find women attractive and have romantic feelings for them. Loved the vid! Most memorable crush was a guy in high school. Could paint like a master artist, always dressed well with that signature dark green hoodie of his. We had the same history class together. There was one time we both had to represent two sides of an argument. though I thought my side had the more moral argument, I was actually secretly happy he won. It just showed me how loved and charismatic he was. Now he's off in California doing what he loves with film. We're still friends on Facebook. I remember flipping through the yearbook a few years ago, seeing his picture and my heart skipped a few beats, he looked so beautiful. I've never told him any of this.

[@rainbowfarts920]

I'm Mormon and a teenage girl, and I've never really had trust in my church or any I've been to because they say things such as liking the same gender is wrong and drinking tea and coffee is wrong, and it's made me not want to go anymore. My mother and my grandmother( who is majorly homophobic, because she says it's against God) try every Sunday to make me go, but I honestly think they've given up. And if I did say anything, they'd probably try to give me a blessing or something, and I live in the deep south so it's even more prejudice, not only in churches, and especially in out schools, which are crap compared to most things up north. I'm not positive but I feel like I'm bisexual, but I would never ever tell my family, not until I'm already in a serious relationship in the future. And while there's lots of bad stuff, I'm glad to know I'm not alone, even if it's not the same thing. I'm sorry for ranting, I just need to say this to someone, even if you don't reply, thank you for sharing your story😊.

I loved the film! I think it is a very important step for the LGTB community! I'm working and studying for being a politician in Argentina and this is one of the main topics I want to emphasize here. But I don't know how people will react when they know about my sexuality. I just know that I can defend our community. I'm proud of this kind of video and happy! This is the first video from you I watch. Both are funny guys! Big hug! Regards from Argentina!

Damn I feel like the animation deserves so much more credit it’s honestly movie material

My first crush was on a boy I went to school with named Parker. (That's not his real name, but for the sake of keeping his real identity a secret that's what I'll call him.) We met in the 1st grade and I instantly knew I liked him. He was always nice to me even when the rest of the students weren't. We became close friends over the years and around 4th grade I realized that I'm gay. He and I are still friends all these years later, but I never told him.

[@DieHardRedemption]

Can you tell him now? Or are you still too afraid in fear that it might ruin your friendship? ❤️

[@fatboysgarage7984]

@@DieHardRedemption he’s married with three kids and he turned out to be extremely homophobic.

[@ryanthompson3737]

I think my first crush would have been in middle school. It started when I was 12 but grew further when I was 13. He was the popular kid in school but he was like a kind and caring one that just befriended everyone and even me. He was nice and caring and I just found him so attractive back then and even now when I look at his younger brother who is now 13 I am reminded of him because his brother looks so much like him now. I remember 2 instances that I can't ever forget which one was that me, my crush, and his other friend which was also the popular kid in school were fooling around in french class or something but it was a chill class that day so we weren't really doing work but I remember that I was sitting on a desk or chair or something and my crush went and sat in my lap sideways and put his arm around me as he was talking to me and his other friend and I actually ended up having to embarrassingly push him off quickly and cover my crotch with my binder because I was getting an erection and was afraid he'd feel it pressing against him but luckily he was making farting noises or something and so I had an excuse to push him off of me. The next instance was outside in the cold when a fire drill went on and I was just standing there minding my own business when he came up behind me and crossed his arms over my chest because he was much taller than me back then. He placed his chin on my head with his stomach pushed against my back and his arms across my chest and I almost died like my crush hugged me from behind and it was like a dream. I ended up coming out to some people and the other popular kid who was kinda cute ended up kinda asking me about it and when I denied it he kept seeing how badly I was lying before I told him that yes I was gay. He was supportive and told me that it didn't bother him and that he was okay with it but I never told either of them that I had a crush on them.

This film is also really relatable to me. I am also really afraid to come out to my extended family because Im afriad they will judge me. Sorry for ranting, but I hope you guys see this. Totally subscribing!

[@christiannunez6421]

I remember when i was younger and in the closet and i used to look up vids of people coming out and stuff, and i would just smile and get this hopeful feeling, and i honestly have no idea why, but your reaction just gave me that same feeling that i haven't felt in a long time

[@brittanycournoyer1900]

my first big crush i was in high school and he was the same age as me, he was cute and aboriginal. i loved his skin tone, his eyes, his black hair and he already had like a 6 pack at 12 yrs old. We are now friends on facebook for many years but itS' funny, when my cousin got married he was there and i blushed like a teenager, i'm in my 30s now so yeah, was awkward for me especially that he always knew that i had a crush on him as a teen. Even tho i'm attracted to girls also, i never had a crush on a girl that i met, but my celeb crush always been Alyssa Milano and i melted whens he followed me on fb with like 3 of her accounts.

[@youllneverknowmyname]

He said "When he was 27" and this whole time I've been thinking that they're in their mid-twenties!!!! how old are they?? *This is a compliment btw if you guys are reading this like I strive to look this youthful when I'm above 27* I hope that didn't come out wrong haha.

This is the first video I've seen on your channel and its flipping adorable

[@alanjones3600]

Hey guys yet again a very interesting video 🙂 I was about 14 or 15 when I had my crush this guy was my best friend tho he would occasionally cuddle me I don't think he was gay at the same time I was still pretty much in the closet myself at that stage in my life. I remember my friend asking me if I was gay and I just denied it and became offended which was the normal reaction back then as I did not understand my feelings at that point.

[@jamhourzz2095]

Alan Jones Are you a boy or girl because if you had a crush on a boy and you had a crush on a boy then your gay

[@jamhourzz2095]

Crazy how friendships and crushes kind of meld together when you're young and don't understand your sexuality, right?

[@alanjones3600]

Electrowizard gaming I'm actually a boy/man or whatever you want to call it and yes I am openly gay having said that there were times where I felt uncomfortable around other men and thar's mainly because I have daddy issues pretty because of the my own dad and other men in my life had treated me during my childhood 🙁

[@rachellangdon3884]

I remember when I was a little girl, I always thought kissing people was normal.. because my dad and mom gave me kisses lol. So, if I thought a girl was nice, I'd kiss her smack dab on the lips and I realize.. oh this isn't normal.. because she told on me to our ballerina teacher. So ever since then, I realized that kissing is a bit too much, but hugs are just fine. Lol, the end.

[@ambersomers]

Growing up my best friend and my sister were bi so 2 me seeing gay people together is the same as a straight couple and my first crush was on Alan Rickman when I saw him in die hard when I was 5 or 6

I've always been very open about my romantic orientation ever since I realized boys weren't the only ones I wanted to hold hands with or whatever. I live in Sweden so I guess it's a more open space to be lgbtq+ in but unfortunately I still recieved a lot of backlash from both my mom and classmates but I've always pushed on. I've never stopped fighting for who I am or quieted myself when straight and cis people around me told me to stop talking about it.

[@SuperSzaucy]

sometimes i feel bad for those who struggle with homosexuality i moved a lot as a kid but by the time i was openly gay i was in an area with a lot of accepting people all my friends accepted me and i wasnt ashamed of myself i really hope close minded views such as homophobia cease to exist in the near future also my crushes were ridiculous i didnt truly like like anyone because i either didnt know them or they were straight o~o but i made sure to be honest with my feelings with the people i at least knew even though i was turned down i accepted it i wont lie and say it didnt hurt because it did but it didnt stop anything! someones out there òwó and ill find em! (or theyll find me)

[@darksoul98am]

My first crush was kind of a roller coaster of emotions.. I am 19 now, but I had a crush on my best friend 2 years ago and we were both curious at the time and we liked each other a lot and well.. She wasn't out yet and I was, but only to my family.. We were both pretty scared of what others what say so we basically made it seems like we were both with guys and well that hurt us both.. It was very hard to do... We were together for about 4 months and I finally told her that we needed to be honest with each other and finally be honest to the world so the day that I finally came out to everyone was the day she was feeling different things towards me. Kind of like shame or denial I don't know.. It was very hard for me because I started to feel love for her and she didn't begin to feel the same for me... I let it slide a little bit but when enough was enough and things were changing way too much I finally asked what was wrong and if everything was okay she told me that we shouldn't be together anymore.. It broke me heart.. To this day it still breaks my heart to talk to her or even see life events on Facebook.. But I will never stop having love in my heart for her..

[@brysonb5066]

I relate to Devon. I'll see I girl that I think is pretty, but I don't have any romantic feelings towards them. I'm still closeted, and I don't know how or when I should come out to my family.

[@cazi1326]

See, my many first crushes, which never progressed anywhere, were all to boys and, by middle school, I had my first and second boyfriend. (First one was a jerk that I only dated to stave off rumors of my best friend--later second boyfriend--and I) By the time I got to high school, puberty made me question a lot. See, I had never had a first kiss (unless you count on the cheek, which I definitely don't) and, in middle school, I always questioned what it would be like to kiss a boy then...high school. I started to question my identity and ignorance wasn't my friend. I wasn't hateful, at all, but I didn't understand my feelings when they came to me. I wondered what it was like to kiss girls, even once had a fairly vivid dream of marrying a girl (can't ever remember what she looks like though). My afab (assigned female at birth) best friend had even confirmed they had a crush on me, while I was still dating my long distance boyfriend (because I moved when I got to high school). At first, I was pretty shocked and they recoiled a little at my reaction. It wasn't because I was disgusted by the thought, but it was because I was still high in my questioning phase and, with no answers, another question was added to the pile. However, once I finally got my answers, I told them that I felt the same way...but I was still dating my boyfriend so we didn't officially start things until I could broach the subject with him. He had a relatively off-putting response to my coming out (better now but hurt at the time), so I broke up with him. Then, two days later, they officially asked me to be their girlfriend and, of course, I said yes. We've been dating for nearly two years now.

[@minanathans6005]

Does having a crush on a girl feel different from having a crush on a guy? It's been years now, but there's a lot of memories from when I was younger that are... vaguely confusing.

[@alluneedislessthan3]

My first gay crush I remember was on an older girl from summer camp when I was in 2nd grade. I remember thinking to myself "wow she's so pretty I wish she could be my girlfriend" and then suddenly becoming aware of my "sinful" thoughts and automatically thinking "i wish I were a boy." If only I knew. 🌈💗💜💙

[@captauron4514]

I was a child from the 80's and my experience was a bit different. I was NOT attracted to boys my age or boys that look like me, but was more geared towards older men (18+). It was 1985, in my 4th grade class, where all 4th grade students went away for camp. There were about 5 cabins on the boys side and 5 on the girls. Each cabin held up to 10-15 students and lead by a leader from a local high school within the county. I remember having such a huge crush on my leader. He was athletic, strong and tall. Back then, all students had to shower every night accordingly to their time slots and which cabin they were in. The showers was one big box with no privacy at all. Kids back then had no shame. We showered naked and it was whatever and our leader had to showered with us, according to rules, we needed supervision. It was not illegal or weird or creepy or paedophile about it at all. Everyone minded their own business, except me of course. I had to look at him and knew then and only then, that I am a lil perverted boy. Looking back, I don't remember crushing on anyone else, except when bodybuilding was on tv. (for reals, go look at bodybuilders from the 80s.. Bob Paris and Berry De Mey anyone?).

[@deejaymatsumoto1210]

My first crush was when i'm in junior high. He was my swimming class partner hahaha...suddenly i just had a flashback! At first i thought he was straight as a ruler but when i saw what was hanged on his locker door i said to myself bingo! He fantasized wentworth effin miller! LOL But when i confessed that i kinda like like him he said that he was not ready coz he had a girlfriend that time so yeah...

[@niomicrowell275]

My first crush was a boy I met in elementary but I never approached him at all. But, when I got into middle school I tried a dating a boy that liked me and didn't work out. Then I tried dating girls and that went on for two weeks and she broke up with me for someone else so I'm basically bisexual😅😅

[@nardjisshoucineexo-l]

you guys are so cute. in my country it is not that common and not allowed to like sommone from the same gender and iam actually not against it. i mean u can't control the heart and what it wants but if i see that in my country i will be startled bc we don't see it that much actually we don't see it at all bc people here r sricet and not that open minded but in my opinion that is cute and awsome bc i believe that gay and lesbian pp are so brave and corageouse just to be themselfs and don't care about others so god bless the ones who made this short film

[@mackpickar4991]

My first crush was on a girl named Emma and we got really close, even dated for 2 months but she always wanted me to do things I didn't want to. Like wear certain clothes or act a certain way, even come out to my parents when I wasn't even 100% sure I was gay, maybe Bisexual. When we broke up I lost a really good friend which sucks, but I'm out and proud and happy with my current gf of 1 year😊 (I just turned 17)

My first crush was probably a very innocent crush on one of my friends when i was a little kid but my "first" (more like second) crush on a girl was at 15 and i was like.... wait..... is this... an actual crush??? like the ones i get on boys???? is this real???? and then i was just like, ok guess i'm not really straight then!! and then in the months after that i kept remembering little moments from ages 10-15 that weren't very straight....

[@itskingsmua2442]

I had a crush on a "straight" guy in my school, literally 3 days ago I still had a crush on him, 2 days ago we went to a party, we got a little drunk hahaha but I still could think about my actions, we played a game and we kissed, he already had told me that he was bisexual, but today, everybody was asking him if we kissed and if he was gay, he denied everything, now he says he is straight and that we are just friends, now I hate him ;) (sorry for my bad English, I'm from Chile)
