Is it weird for a guy to give his male friend a massage?

[Macks]

I was sitting at my computer one day in my dorm room at college when a male friend of mine came by and suddenly started massaging my shoulders. At first I just thought that it was a friendly, "chummy" sort of thing; a way of greeting me. But then he just kept on massaging my shoulders, noting that they were tense and even unbuttoned the top two buttons of my shirt in order to reach the whole area. He then also massaged my arms and rubbed my feet though my socks. I'll admit that it all felt relaxing, but I also found the situation really weird. He is straight--he has a girlfriend and has been in a relationship with her for over a year. Before that, he had another girlfriend. What should I do? Is this normal? The massage felt good, but I don't know if I should be weirded out by this.

dumb question i would be weirded out by a guy giving me a massage u gay he gay

 

[Stephen K]

OK, I would be weireded out, as he went what I feel is a bit too far. If he did this (the unbuttoning) without asking first, I would be SERIOUSLY weirded out

Well being gay isn't "weird" it's just not as common as being straight. And just because he has a girlfriend, that doesn't mean he isn't gay or bisexual. The real question is, did you enjoy it? If you were uncomfortable, then tell him. If you weren't then it's fine. Good luck.

i don't think its weird, its probably just a friendly gesture. would it be weird if my friend that's a chick came up to me and gave me a massage? no, not in my opinion. and no its not any diff cause we're girls, its the same concept cause we're the same sex. im perfectly straight and i have a boyfriend whom ive been seeing for 10 months and i give my chick friends massages all the time. when their stress, knotted up.. etc.. your friend was probably just doing the same thing. but if he drops like really serious signs of being gay, like trying to kiss you. then just tell him how you feel, and no need to stop being friends with him just because of his sexual orientation.

he just came in and massaged u? sounds kinda odd, i mean i guess it would be ok if u asked him to massage u if u were sore or tense or something, but for no reason is what makes it weird. Maybe he has a man crush on you, or has bi-sexual feelings for u.

You know son...we have a " Don't ask, Don't tell " policy.

I would have suggested this earlier to you but I was at the range taking target practice.


Good Luck Son. You'll need it.

HOO-RAH !

No, its not weird. He was just trying to help. The massage would only be weird if it ended in an happy ending. I wouldnt let it bother me. I would take it as a compliment.
