I think the guy I'm dating is gay?
I’m worried the guy I’ve been casually dating is gay. My first impression when I saw him was, “He’s gay.” I met him on a night out in a college town where all men usually wear jeans, t-shirts, and Nikes. He was wearing checkered/plaid shorts, a shirt with a design, sandals and a fedora. The guy friend I was with thought he was gay too so both of us were very surprised when he asked for my number.
He’s into fashion and decorating things. He told me that his lady friends would always come to him when they needed advice on clothes so he would go shopping with them.
We’ve now been casually dating for about 2 months and yes, I told him that I thought he was gay. He told me that he has been asked many times if he was gay and even approached by gay men but insisted he was a straight man. I still fear that the only reason why he’s denying his sexuality is because of his religion. His family is very religious and his country even beats gays to death. I’m afraid that I may start getting attached to him and then later find out I was just a cover up. What do you think about this situation?

He just may be a metrosexual meaning that he really cares about his outer appearance like a woman does but has masculinity. I have met a few guys like this and they were definitely not into guys romantically. You can be honest with him like you have always been and reveal the reasons why he makes you feel this way and that you would support him either way. Once he feels comfortable if he does turn out to be gay then he would just tell you. I don't think you have anything to worry about but in the mean time no baby making just in case he is.

I see a man who is on the bisexual side, and he has a very strong feminine side, while he is very good looking, 6'1" and about 175 lbs. Very strong, and lean. I don't mind seeing him -- we have a casual dating / sexual relationship and are close friends along with that.
What I think about my situation is - i am fortunate to have such a great friend, and to have met him. I have no expectations of him or any other man.
As far as your situation goes, i'm not sure what you expect? You'll have to think that through.

I act a lil like that and one of my friends is pretty much like that and I can assure I am not gay. Its just fun to act like that but I would never be gay

I can understand this one of my husbands best friends seems gay to me, but is a stereotypical metrosexual. To be honest it's best to just be direct tell him your concerns and fears.
