Russian Orthodox and Gay with a Romantic Friend

Here to mostly vent. I’m a recent convert to Russian Orthodoxy and soon after baptism I met someone that I really click and get along with and have been seeing him since mid December. We both agreed I don’t I want to date and he does and settled on that. We are going through a rough patch and I will work on my anxiety and trust issues in the meantime which is a lot of time and effort.

That does sound like a rough patch, given that you both do not agree on the path forward. It can be difficult to "remain friends only" when romantic vibes are sparked.
