Huh, That's Awkward...

In recent months, I have let my online presence dwindle somewhat. Back in September, I deleted my grindr, my Adam4Adam, my Manhunt, and my recon. Last night, feeling horny and lonely, I remade my grindr and my Adam4Adam, against my better judgement. Imagine, to my surprise, when I opened Grindr and saw a familiar face staring back at me. You see, my 18 year old neighbor and childhood friend, has a grindr. I knew he was gay, it's been rather obvious for the past... 8, 10 years, but I didn't know he was out. Furthermore, how do I even properly approach this situation? I can't really hit on him, and even though he's cute, it would feel weird to do so. At the same time, I can't quite ignore him either. He lives 300 feet away from me, and blocking him or ignoring him on grindr would be painfully obvious. So, I did the only reasonable thing available, I sent him a message that said "Well, Hello . Glad to see you came out." I didn't really have anything else to say.
