I like this guy and he seems to be showing an interest, but I'm not sure if he's gay or not. How do I get closer to him?

A male United States age 36-40, anonymous writes:

I'm a guy. There is this guy in my photography class. He has shown a lot of signs to being gay, like the way he talks, his movements etc. Even a few of my friends have said they thought he was gay. I've caught him looking at me a few times and whenever he's heard me say something funny he's laughed. It seems like a lot of the time he is deliberately avoiding my eyes..either because he's shy or because he doesn't want me to see him looking at me.

I can't stop thinking about him and if he's gay (even though my gay-dar has definetly picked up on him, you never fully know until he tells you) I really want to get closer to him.

How would I go about dealing with this situation?

cd206 agony auntHm could you go out as friends for a drink or something and when out ask him if he's comfortable with going to your favourite pub (which happens to be a gay bar) and say it's totally fine if he's not okay with it. Maybe you'll be able to gauge a reaction from that?

AskEve agony auntGet on to the subject of girls one day (shouldn't be too hard lol) and ask him in conversation what "type" of girls he likes - blondes, brunettes, tall, short etc and see what his answer is. If you chat to him more you could ask him out for a beer, coke, coffee etc I'm sure you'd find out soon enough.

Going up to him and simple asking him outright might offend him, especially if it turns out he's definitely not gay.

melschatbox agony auntHmm... I would suspect that you need to ask him something after class. Get his opininon on one of your photographs. (not you personally..lol, but one you've taken)One's sexuality whether hetero or homosexual is always assumed one way or the other. Doesn't mean we're always right on the money. And, it's not very mannerly to just come right out and ask. If your interested then show him the signs you speak of.

Good Luck
