How to know if a guy you're talking to is gay?!?

Sometimes I talk to guys that i would think are gay, but how can you know for sure without coming across bluntly and saying "are you gay"?

    Dude, you are a top contributor in social science and psychology and you're asking this? Haha. I've never seen someone have so many best answers though... wow. You are very knowledgeable.

    I wouldn't mind if you bluntly asked as long as it's not in front of other people, especially ones I don't really know. I've also had straight guys ask if I have a girlfriend, and I just tell them I'm homo. It's not a big deal -- not to me, anyways. :)

    There is no definitive answer; men you might 'think are gay' may not be, and men who you think aren't may be. I'm not saying you're prejudiced, but why do you think these guys are gay? Also, is it really necessary to know a man's orientation (unless you are yourself gay and are interested in which case you should definitely ask him).

    Why in the world would it be important to you? Ask yourself that question before you ask anyone else.. I don't see how it could matter to you. GW

    Not out is not gay. If he's hiding it, it doesn't matter what his sexuality is.
