16/m gay
basically, i have been crushin on this guy for a while, and i think he might like me back. he is always kinda flirting with me when we see each other, but i am not sure. last night, me and my friend both talked to him on the phone, and i asked my friend what he thought (he is bisexual), and he said that he really thinks he might be. he acts just like both of us did before we would even admit to ourselves that we liked guys. he acts super homophobic, if you ask him how he thinks another guy looks he will say "i dont know, im not gay". i mean, he just acts like he is in the closet. he is a christian, but i was too for a while. i am not sure, he is kind of hot, and i would like to go out with him, but i am not sure he likes me like that. is there i way i could be more sure if he does or not? and please dont say things like "you need to just let him know how you feel" or "you need to ask him if he does". thank you for your help
ok? then just nudge him in the right direction without actually shoving him. if you just go out and tell him he will freak and just stop talking to you and then you will be known as the freaky gay guy who no one wants to have a locker next to in gym. if hes really not gay you'll still have his friendship and if he is you'll have a newly gay boyfriend who you can....."show the ropes to"
lol ; ]

He may be gay/bisexual and compensating for it, or he might actually be homophobic. Whatever his reasons are it's pretty clear that he isn't ready for you to make any sort of advance or to hear about your feelings. He isn't interested. He isn't there yet. He isn't ready to talk about it.
Even if he is attracted to men, leave him alone. He will come to deal with it in his own time. There is nothing to gain by you forcing the issue or trying to figure it out. He needs to figure it out first. Give him the space, open support and good listener that he needs to help him figure himself out. [ Razhie's advice column | Ask Razhie A Question ]
