Want to answer more questions in the Relationships category?
Maybe give some free advice about: Friendship?
Being a gay male, myself, I kinda want to look at you and shake my head sadly.
Notes:
1). Gay people do not constantly flirt with people of the same gender but opposite sexual orientation.
2). When I came out to my friends and family, all I wanted was to share a part of my life with them that I had otherwise lived through alone.
3). Be a friend. Your gay friend is the same guy as he was before he told you.

How do you know your friend is gay? If he didn't tell you himself, then you need to be really careful about making assumptions. He could be gay, bisexual, OR straight.
If he IS gay, then what you need to realize is that he is the same. He's always been gay. He's always been attracted to other guys. He has not changed at all.
What has changed is the way you look at him. I think that a bit of time should help - it sometimes takes gay people awhile to get comfortable with their sexuality, and it can take their family and friends time as well. But even more than time, you need to talk to him.
If you are believing rumours, not really talking to him, or feeling weird about the situation, a good conversation can work wonders. If he's gay he could really need your friendship and support.
Of course there's absolutely nothing wrong with being gay, but some people don't understand that. You can be the one holding his hand when he has problems - but you can't be there for him if you can't even talk with him.
So go on. Be brave.
Good luck.

well he's your friend, you shouldn't see him differently beacuse he's gay. theres pretty much nothing for you to do to change the way that he is.. even if hes talking to a guy and you think its flirting or if he was, it shouldn't be a big deal to both of you, beacause thats the way he is, xox Renee

One, how do you know he is gay if he hasn't told you? Don't believe everything that you here. Two, gay people aren't a totally different species and they are not attracted to every guy they see just like you are not attracted to every guy you see. If you are really his friend, the whole gay thing wouldn't bother you. I guess just talk to him about it and either you'll become more relaxed or you will no longer be his friend. He's still the same person as he used to be just a different sexual preference, and his sexual preference probably won't even make a difference until high school.

how do you know hes really gay??truthfully gay guys are the best i wish one of my friends would turn gay their a girls bestfriend...you shouldnt look at someone differently just because their gay..

well you do like for sure are certain that he's gay? don't assume anything. but if he is then i think gay people are cool and just becuase he may be gay doesn't mean he likes every guy he sees gay guyz are like girls and i'm certain we don't love every guy we see. and he might need someone so don't ignore him help him out

First of all how do you know hes gay? and just think of it as a plus that hes gay . now you and him and your other girl friend can all sit around and talk about guys and he can help you explain why a guys being a jerk or soemthing cause he is one so he understands them better.and if you dont want to do that .then just confront him about his "gayness" maybe he isnt actually gay. i mean there are tons of rumors in middle school way to much drama for anyone to live with.and he probably isnt sure if he wants to be gay yet i mean he is only 13 or 14. maybe he just thinks he will have better luck with guys then girls. so maybe if you can get him a girlfriend he will change.it just all depends on so many factors.and when you do see him talking to another guy just remember its like you tlaking to a guy or guys talking to girls theres nothing wrong with it.

i think you should talk to him about it. i'd probably have the same reaction as you. you need to talk to him about it.. but not in a mean type of way.. i'm sure you'll feel better once you consult him about it =)

Well maybe he is confused right now, give him some time to come around, if you are one of his good friends he will tell you. Just because he is gay doesnt mean you should treat him any different try not to let it bother you because you still arent even sure yet. Just because a guy hangs out with all girls doesnt make him gay. But if you must know write him a note or just ask him online i dont think he will take any offense to it. hope i help -Diona xO
