Tom Daley was initially \u2018freaked out\u2019 over his attraction to boyfriend Dustin Lance Black<\/b><\/p>\n

Tom Daley is opening up about how falling in love with Dustin Lance Black quickly and unexpectedly answered for him any questions about his sexuality.<\/p>\n

The couple<\/a> first met in March of 2013 in Los Angeles at a dinner party held by a mutual friend.<\/p>\n

“I’d never had feelings for a person along those lines,’ Daley tells The Guardian<\/a>. ‘I’d been in relationships with girls<\/a> where I’d had sexual feelings, but it became so much more intense when I met Lance. I thought, “Whoa, this is weird. Why am I having these feelings for somebody?” It freaked me a little bit initially, but then it was like, “OK, this makes sense.” Lots of things started to make sense.’<\/p>\n

Adds Daley: ‘I always knew that I had that attraction to guys<\/a>, but I just thought that was a usual thing, being attracted to guys<\/a> and girls<\/a>. It was only when I met Lance I started having such strong feelings.’<\/p>\n

The 2012 Olympic bronze medalist is 20 years younger than the Academy Award winning screenwriter. It’s Daley’s first relationship with a guy<\/a>.<\/p>\n

‘It makes it so much easier, being with someone who gets having to work really hard, and gets how we have other things in our life that we want to be successful at,’ he says. ‘And we’ve both worked really hard all our lives to get things we want. I want an Olympic gold medal; he wants a smash hit in the box office or a really good film.’<\/p>\n
