Is this 'normal' in a friendship?!


Question: Is this 'normal' in a friendship!?
My best friend was over at my place last night!. Both of us are athletes and we have an athletic build!. He took off his shirt then asked me to do the same, because he wanted to 'compare the build of our bodies'!. All he did was compare the build of our torsos and arms, then changed the subject!.

I'm puzzled to his request!. Did he just made a simple body-build comparison between he and his best friend, or is there some deeper meaning to it (like maybe he's gay or bi)!? We are pretty competitive in sports, school, and just life in general!.Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
Hey, if he would have touched you in an intimate place on your body or said "Take off your pants", I would say the gayness factor would be pretty high, without a doubt!. But he only made the physical comparison and then went on to something else, thankfully!. Guys like to make lots of physical and academic comparisons, so that's normal!. Www@Answer-Health@Com

If he's your best friend he is probably very comfortable around you!. That does not sound like he is gay at all, unless he has been doing other things that have also made you think that!.

Women talk about their bodies with each other and many women even show each other their bodies, especially if they are concerned about something!.

I don't see why that wouldn't be normal in a friendship!. Its basically the same as flexing arm muscles and comparing them!. Unless you did get a gay vibe from it!.!.!. then he could be!. But if not then there's no reason to think hes gay or bi!. I wasn't there so I couldn't tell you, but by reading what you just typed it seems as though he really just wanted to compare body size!. People who work out and are competitive would do that!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

well i love that you used normal in quotes because nothing is ever normal!.!.!. but if you think he might be gay or bi does that change that he is your best friend!? and if it does than you need to rethink your friendship!.!.!. also!.!.!. guys are competitive!.!.!. in everything!.!.!. and as you have said you both are very competitive people so it could be nothing!.!.!.!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I am not going to say its normal, but I doubt it has anything to do with being gay!. I think your friend may just be insecure about his own body and wanted to compare with someone else to see where he stands!. I had a friend who would do this with her weight, breast size, etc!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

guys are competetive for like everything im sure why this was going on you were thinking oh no no my arms are way bigger than yours and stuff!.!.!.!. lol males are naturaly competitive!.!.!.!. and if u are competitive in everything else that would make sense !.!.!.!.!. but there could of been something gay about it idk Www@Answer-Health@Com

Hmm!.!.!. it kind of depends on how he is eg) personality!.
It is kind of hard for a stranger to answer your question!.!. but maybe!?
You never know!. Would it be too weird for you to ask him yourself!?!?
Good lucky, buddy!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
