We spoke every day and then I realised after a couple of days that his ex was my crush. We spoke about him a lot. We actually got on really well and after a few months of talking I confessed I sent a fake pic although everything I told him about me was real, and I listened to him rant and say bad things about my crush... He was angry and blocked me, I did find away to apologise to him but he wasn't forgiving. I'm now worried that when he sees a pic he'll out me for catfishing - (1)because he'll know I liked his ex and (2)because he'll be worried I'll tell my crush things he said. I wouldn't tell, I don't like that kind of drama... What do I do about my date? Do I somewhat tell him about the situation or do I wait and see if he does say anythingAny chance that nearly a year later his ex might have forgotten about it?

 Truthfully I think you should avoid going on a date with him. You cat fished his ex so I doubt nothing serious can ever happen between you two or else he will find out and it will be a lot off drama. Maybe find someone else to go on a date with and cross that chapter from your life.

 If someone told me they catfished someone else I would run a mile. It's extremely odd behaviour therefore If I were you I'd keep my mouth shut.
If he finds out then it's your own fault for doing something dodgy in the first place. There is NO EXCUSE for faking your identity to someone else, confused about your sexuality or not.

 Wait and see how it goes. You could casually fit "I did a few stupid things when coming to terms with who I am" into the conversation and own up if he asks for more info, but don't make it about you. You may be able to talk about silly things you've both done when figuring your sexuality out, but I wouldn't say who you did it to.
