Could my friend be gay? Huh?!
Question: Could my friend be gay? Huh?
This guy, my friend, is really, really shy, to the point of being socially awkward. He only wears clothes from Hollister. Why is this?
Also, whenever I ask him if he would date (fill-in-the-blank-girl) he gets really awkward and nervous and says NO really emphatically. Why does he write everybody off? Could it be because he's secretly gay? Or is it another reason I haven't thought about?
Also, he's fully mature and very tall, but his voice is still high. He's 16.
Answers:
maybe he's shy because he doesnt know anybody, prefers to be quiet, or his breath smells LOL. and when you ask him if he will date someone, he says no cus you a girl.
Judge not - lest ye be judged.
He's just in an awkward stage of puberty that he's having a hard time dealing with. His male hormones are raging from one end of the spectrum to the other, trying to figure out where to settle down. Some guys experience issues like anxiety, depression, stress, fear, doubt, attitudes, mood swings, animosity, issues with buddies or girls, issues with parents or siblings, increased appetite, loss of appetite, too much sleep, not enough sleep, excessive energy, loss of energy, fatigue, unexpected or unexplained sexual arousals, etc. just to mention a few things Most guys handle all these issues reasonably well - but - some cannot & find it all overwhelming - but must learn to deal with them in a positive manner.
well,he could be,but,just because he says no to a blind/fixed date.he could just be looken 4 wat many people call "the magic" wich is just simply finding "the one" on your own and just a connection.but then again,he might be gay,just ask him.
Ur could be a lot if things.. Like a lack of self confidence, low self esteem, or maybe he's just the shy type. He needs for u to continue to b his friend and if he's gay so what... We're not all str8. If ur seriously concerned, sit down with him and ask him to do things with ya (no gayness included) ..I'm sure he'll come out of his shell if u just continue being his friend...a true friend.
Id say as long as he isn't trying to get on your d**k than Id just let him do his thing
You'll only know if, when he kisses you goodnight, he closes his eyes...
The guy want to look cool in Hollister, do you blame him? You should compliment him on his attire maybe he would open up. You say he is socially awkward, he is only 16, he is not mature at all just because he is very tall. It is like saying that a fat girl does not have feelings and people make fun of her.
Why, you must ask yourself, do you feel compelled to embarrassed him continually. If he does not have the social graces yet, you are not helping him getting them.
Please, try and stop putting labels on him and try to find out what defines him. Have you ever tried that. Do you really care about him. If not, please leave him alone because it is threading on close to being harassment.
Religion, personal beliefs, hating where he lives because he feels people are hicks and would like everyone else to conform . . . That may be where you could start to explore what makes him tic.
BTW at sixteen the voice may not yet be fully changed.
How did you get to be so judgmental?
Good luck to you, sincerely.
