Should I ask him to be my boyfriend? Over the past 1-2 years, I have met this bi/gay 17yo boy (im also 17) who lives in the same country, just on opposite sides. We’ve gotten to know each other a lot and have seen each other face to face via skype. I really like him a lot because he understands me and gets me, plus he is super funny and cute. I would love to ask him to be my boyfriend, albeit a long-distance one. However he has had some emotional issues with previous boyfriends and I don’t know how to help him. I don’t know what to say to him or how I should say it. I would love it if he was my boyfriend, and I think he likes me. Should I ask?
