    Why not ask him? Just act a little flirty with him and see how he responds. From that you should be able to tell whether or not he likes you.

    I think thats really good advice.Make suttle flirtty advances and see what he does.You should know quickly if he's intrested,if not try to be ok with it (or at least appear that way)if you want to keep him as a friend try not to make him feel uncomfortable.[​IMG]
    Sounds like you got a good chance though.

    Never know if you don't ask,.
    Good luck!

    Ask him if he mirror's your feelings. A lot of times the other person does. If he doesn't then you guys can go on being friends and nothing is affected. Good luck

    I actually think that telling him to tell the other guy about his feelings flat out is rather silly. Unless SteveO is fairly confident and knows his friend very well, it will probably be far too hard. You need to be subtle in your approach and judge his reactions from that. But yeah - if you have the confidence to go through with it, just ask him flat out, though many people wouldn't be so willing to try something like that

    hey,
    i'd be very careful if i were you, you wouldn't want to ruin your friendship,
    however i know EXACTLY how you feel as i'm sure many other of us bi-sexuals do.
    my advice is to casually raise the subject of homosexuality at an appropriate time when you two are alone, then read his reactions. or you can even talk about it when under the influence so you can say you weren't responsible for what you said (but i think that's a pretty extreme idea). the problem is though that if his intentions were similar to yours he too would fear awkwardness, embarrassment, rejection, etc. so there's something of a problem in the fact that there's no sort of easy way around it. test him by acting flirtatiously but i wouldn't overdo it. see how he responds. keep us posted!

    hope this helps although it seems as though alot of other people gave the same advice...

    I came out to my friend while on the topic of homosexuality, once he had told me he was fine with the idea of it, and wouldnt think any less of sombody if they were, I took my chance and just told him.

    My advise is to find out how your friend feels about same sex relationships. Ask him if he would think any different of sombody if they were gay/bi/lesbian then if the response is positive, go for it, tell him

    I would agree with the comments that you should try subtle hints. I'm guessing this would be your first move on a guy? It would be nice if it goes well for you, and if he didn't feel the same that he reacts to you with respect. If you declare your feelings outright with no warning he may be shocked and react negatively (gay or not) even if he wouldn't mean to. So I think it would be best for yourself to gradually test the water, and to give him time to think about his reaction. I agree making a general comment/question about gay people would be a start. Maybe say you've been chatting to a guy on myspace or whatever who's just told you he's gay and was asking you for advice on reading people's feelings/intentions? Obviously at some point you would need to make your feelings clear, but if you've had good feedback from him you'd feel more confident and relaxed. Play it by ear! Good luck!
