Should have asked her if she wants to join him watching the lunar eclipse.
Lunar eclipse? As in a new moon that happens every month?
No. “New moon” is just the night side of the moon facing us. A lunar eclipse is when the Earth blocks sunlight from the moon, which can only occur on a full moon approximately every six months.
A new moon is when the moon is between the sun and earth. A full moon is when the moon is behind the earth, and a lunar eclipse is when the earth blocks the sun on the moon during a full moon cycle.
a new moon only blocks the sun periodically because the moon’s orbit has a 5 degree inclination:
Sounds aromantic and/or ace to me.
Uhm, lunar eclipses aren’t visible. Or did i mix that up?
Yeah they are, they happen when the full moon passes through the Earth’s shadow
Lunar eclipses are visible everywhere you can see the moon (roughly half of the earth)
Solar eclipses are only visible in the shadow of the moon, which is very tiny comparatively.

There’s an old quote, ‘never blame on malice that which can be explained by incompetence’.
I would adapt that to be, ‘never blame on homosexuality that which can be explained by stupidity’…
