I don’t know if he’s gay like me though. I make him smile and laugh at lunch a lot. he walks close to me in school. and when ever i make a scrunched flirtatious face at him, he gives me one back. and he’s told me I have a pleasant smile. he did tell me about how he wanted to try out for cheer leading but didn’t because of what people might think. BUT his father is a pastor and he goes to church about 3 times a week. Which would be kind of odd for a homosexual I think. How do I ask if he’s in to guys with out giving myself away? Or without being rude? or to get the truth from him? were pretty swell friends. He talks with his hands a bit too. And when ever we look at each other its total eye contact the whole time. Like he’s looking right through me or something.
so your in school, right?
do you have any dances comming up at your school?
because if you do than you can casually ask-not intensenvly ask-:
“so who you planning on taking to the dance?” -or sonthing like that.OR
you could casually ask: “so who you got your eyes set on?”-somthing like that
sorry that im of little help, im no good at relashionhips, i havent really had one yet,im in school too, i just want my first relashionship to be special if thats possible, you know?
well it seems like he really see’s you, and notices you, exspecially if he told you you have a great smile. i think that he likes you, and he’s afraid of exactly what he’s afraid of. and maybe he’s being settle about it because-like you said-his dad’s a pasture. maybe he’s affraid of parental acceptance.i think he’s there with you pal.
and knowing you both might feel the same way might help you bew more open with him and understanding of eachother while keeping it on the down low.
relashionships take time.
hopfully i have somewhat helped you, maybe, possibly?

Yes. It did help me a little. It’s just when i ask him who he likes he says no one. I want to just ask him If he’s gay but I dont want it to seem like Im interested in him you know? Because not to many people know that Im gay. I dont fit any homosexual stereotypes. Im pretty **** manly. haha.

Hmm, I don’t know.
He kind of sounds like one of my guy friends. (who isn’t gay, b.t.w.) He looks everyone in they eyes, like he can see everything about you… and he probably can. He is always free with a compliment. etc.
Also, with my female friends- I can flirt with them like crazy, because it’s safe. I notice guys do this too. The more comfortable they are the more they appear to flirt.
My tip: You’re friends with him- Tease him about being gay, see how he reacts. I’ve noticed this is a fairly common joke among guys, so he probably shouldn’t assume anything (unless he knows you are gay… which if he does, he probably wouldn’t be so friendly with you unless he liked you)
He doesn’t know I’m gay. But im only 16 and he’s turning 15 tomorrow. So i don’t know. Im not in that big of a hurry to be in a relationship. I just want commitment really i think.
but i need help also. I’m not gay, but bi, and only one person knows.
Currently 3 people are on my mind, one guy.
So here it goes. I can read people pretty well, i am quite an intelligent person, but reading whether a person is gay, or bi is very difficult at times, because they hide, and if they are attracted to you (in general).
This guy, i have 2 classes w/him (this is high school), always calls my name during class, I’d say about 5 times, reliably, in the first class i have with him in which he sits kinda far away. When he calls me he will always make faces, and i will laugh sometimes and smile. In the next class, i’m next to him. I’ve once sat away from him to accompany another friend in the 2nd class, and he told me to come back, but i refused and told him to sit next to me, which he did after quickly contemplating. I don’t think he’s ever had a girlfriend, but he said he likes someone (female of course). We always talk and joke, and it seems like i’m one of his closest friends, though i’ve hardly known him for about a simester. He randomly texts me “what’s up?” at times. He touches me at times, and even when i try to work and pay attention, and tell him those are my intentions, he still tries to get my attention. He will ask me what music i like, and tell me what he likes, and when i sit away from him he always tells me to come back and sit next to him. He’s said “i love you so-and-so” a few times and “i hate you” in the way in which he’s anticipating a “u know i love you” from me, and one time a friend brought up my last girlfriend, and i said “i do miss her, she was beautiful” i looked at him right after, he wore a soft weak smile, and i’m pretty sure i saw depression behind it (his eyes were looking down is one reason). He tries to convince me sometimes that he’s a good person, which he is, but i always deny it because his hobby, (nothing bad like smoking, drinking or anything serious, he hates beer or any kind of alcohol or drug), but i’m really just joking. In our class there is a guy who is gay, obviously, idk if he’s open with it though, and not really any guys talk to him just this guy and one other, which i think would be because he is gay. In class presentations in which we ask questions, for some reason he will always see my hand come up rather than others’, and will call on me. I’ve looked straight into his eyes, and he kept looking, but i looked away, and when i turn around to see the time, he is always looking at me (in both classes), and smiles at me a lot, but also in general. If he sees me after class he always calls me. One time i was mad at him, and he also was mad at me (i told him he’s not my friend, but i wasn’t all serious but he was more mad about the fact that when he opened his arms for a hug cuz he knew i was mad, i refused and kept walking), and we gave each other the silent treatment, i was sure he’d break first, but i did, and this makes me think maybe he likes me because he acts the same. Two more things. One, he once pinched my but and i got scared, and was like “whoa!! dang you scared me man” haha, and two, when he walks his hips swing, haha, just a stereotype.
Anyway, I think he thinks the same way of me but is not sure enough of what i think so hides by saying he likes a girl. He doesn’t talk like he’s gay, but a lot don’t. I like him a lot, but if it doesn’t work, i don’t really care, it’s just high school. Bad relationships don’t hurt me too much, but he IS on my mind like 70% of the time. It’s hard to give you all the details correctly online, but i think i did pretty good. I am thinking of telling him that pupils dilate when you see someone you like, because i told someone else to test what they’d do (a guy i think is gay), and he kept looking at my eyes when i spoke to him after that. Sorry this was long, but anyone please help.
That sound alot like my issue. i think He likes you. then again sometimes your brain likes to think about what it wants to think about. and you might take something’s the wrong way.
