My best friend is a guy. I don't know if he is straight or not, all I know is I feel like am hanging out with my girl pals whenever we're together. It feels so awkward to ask him about it. I love him dearly, in fact he is one of my best and closest friends. It doesn't really matter to me, but there are those spontaneous moments when I feel that our friendship will be stronger if he became more honest with me. :-)

Hi Arystine! Hmm don't make your life complicated.. You said It's not big deal for you whatever he is..Just enjoy with his company and wait for the right time if he want to tell you everything about him.. What he is etc... Don't push yourself to ask him it will cause things you will forget someday.. Just enjoy and make him more comfortable with you..;)

Hi jensky thanks for the advice. Yes, I am enjoying the company of my best friend and hoping that the time will come when he will be comfortable enough to tell me everything. :-)

As you said it doesn't really matter whatever is his real identity to you.I suggest one time try to ask in a friendly manner as not to offend him. There will be no bad about it as you are so close with each other, just be frank and honest for your peace of mind.Who knows he is just waiting for the right time to come out from his shell with your help and initiative. What matters most is the priceless freindship built between the two of you.Or to add the excitement why not help him to become a real man as you expect him to be?

Thanks for the advice. I really can't imagine asking him out in the open whether he is straight or not. I think he's still confused. I just hope one day he'll be free to reveal his true identity. I love him, straight or not. :)

Hello arytine. Since you have been very good friends to each other, there is no need to feel awkward with him. If it does not really matter to you, I am sure that the friendship between you will remain good to each other.

I don't think there is real friendship between men and women let alone deep deep friendship. Because this relation can easily turn to love, it is only a matter of time that one tells his or her feeling to the other.

I think this cannot be solved without asking and getting clarified the truth. So you can Let him know by some gestures that you are taking note of his girlish behaviour when he does it without letting him feel bad about it. Ask him sometimes indirectly!!! Then when he becomes consious of the fact that you are in fact confused about him then you can slowly and gently ask him. You can be as fast or slow depending on your friendship!
