There always is isn't there?

Well he's 'straight', he's said it many times but he also flirts with me a lot...I mean he flirts with me(seemingly jokingly) more then anyone else I know.

He says that he's just comfortable with his sexuality but I'm not really sure. I started wondering if it might be something more when he asked me to prom...

Oh, he also seems like he goes out of his way to touch me(not like that you pervert), but just little nudges and stuff.

I'm considering asking him about it but I'm not sure how to go about it.

Well it's a good thing there always is, right :)

My advice would be to go with him. Bring it up with something like, "Was your offer still good to go to prom?" or something else just as casual.

As for going through to prom just have fun and watch the signs for where the night takes you. Granted the act of asking you out can put one point in the column for being gay (okay so more than one point) but it is your prom and let's face it you want good memories so just watch the signs.

Those who go with good intentions can be often surprised with what prom brings :D

Well...That won't work since prom was yesterday, and I didn't go. (It was also my dad's birthday)

I haven't seen him yet so I haven't got a reaction of me not going to prom yet.

He's definitely not a bad guy, cute, funny, tall and a little socially awkward at times. It depends on your definition of 'like' though, I like him as a friend totally but I never really think of my straight friends as more then that usually.

Now now Drayk not fair leaving out things like the fact that you missed the prom (so not fair dude, heck even I went to prom; hmm than again that one really should not count :P)

Well, now your going to have to approach the subject without approaching the subject. (and yes I know people I normally say be more direct around here, but this is a different set of circumstances).

You could bring it up in the way of taking him to a movie since you could not make it to prom with him, or some other such thing (coffee, dinner, whatever you feel is more appropriate for the guy).

By doing that you could end up creating a situation where you can honestly end up with the same (although a different set of circumstances) thing that I was trying to get you to use prom for :D

Hm that's a pretty good idea I might have to invite him to a movie.

Do you think a group event might be ok, cause I'm not sure if he'd go for a one-on-one date-like idea?

A group date would be better at first.

And than you can always going out again if the first one goes well.

Now what I would do (not telling anyone to go off this recommendation because this is just what I would), is see if I have any obnoxious friends I would get them to do the group thing.

Give them exact instructions on how to act, have them mess up the evening just enough so I could offer another movie (or something else) to make up for the botched evening.

There's a good chance he might be into you... maybe if you show some interest in him, he'll open up a bit more... if he does feel that way, that is.

Invite him to hang out sometime. He's a friend at least, right? That'll give you even more of a chance to see how he acts around you... and just talking about sexuality as a whole will get some opinions from him about it... and maybe that'll lead into a conversation about how he feels about you? I dunno... but it wouldn't hurt to try.

If he is into you, it also wouldn't hurt to give him a shot. You may not be too crazy about him now, but maybe you'll grow to like him. Nothing's wrong with testing the waters. ;) Good luck!

lol David that sounds like something from a sitcom ❤

It sounds like it belongs in one :) I can not remember a sitcom that actually did something like that (but that does not mean there was not one).

However, I would probably do it exactly like that.

Yes folks, I am just that crazy :D

Yes you are crazy David :P

Drayk, my only advice is just try and ask the person. Invite him to any place you think you two are comfortable enough to hang out. Like they always say 'it is best to try than ponder on the what ifs after' :D

I don't want to crush you, but he's probably just comfortable with his sexuality, too comfortable. Maybe you should tell him he's leading you on all the time, if you're sure he's not gay. Unless you enjoy him leading you on, then by all means let him continue.
