is my gay/bi

[shiningmalik]

i have had a family move in my neighborhood recently. Their only son is my age and an avid cricket athlete. While he was playing cricket with a cousin on the street, i asked if i could join him too. He agreed and we pretty much became buddys after that.
The thing with him is that he is very touchy and feely. Like not a whole lot of days have gone into our friendship, but the way he treats me by always putting his arms around my neck when he is close, caressing my cheeks and shooting dreamy stares at me have started to make me think he likes me in a not so strictly friendly fashion.
I mean even my childhood friends would never go beyond shaking hands or hugging upon meeting. So what do you guys think? Is he a non straight guy or just too friendly??
Btw the reason it's been on my mind is because he is pretty hot and i'm curious . So maybe i could get to try out ''stuff'' with him but only if i could make sure if he would be down for it.

Many straight guys, especially athletes are very touchy. If the stares are as "dreamy" as you way he might be gay.

[NeuroTiger]

Many guys are touchy...it's not a sign for homosexuality.
Maybe the stare could be.
Keep monitoring his behaviour.

My feeling is that if you guys develop the right kind
of relationship you should not have to "get" him to do anything,
it will take place naturally. He sounds great though. You are
fortunate to have such a good buddy you like and who likes you back a lot.

He seems to like you a lot, maybe because he has lost contact with his old friends when he moved and now he wants to find other people. It's hard to tell his sexuality with the information you displayed, just keep analysing his behaviour.

I wish I had that friend.

I wish I had that friend.

Haha, same here :D

[shiningmalik]

thankyou guys for your responses.
Seems like this behavior of his is hardly a pointer to homosexuality, but could it atleast mean he is bicurious?
Like the other day, he and i along with our neighborhood friends ( they've been my friends for years but his only recently) were playing cricket in the society park. He and i were on the same team and he was the team's captain. One of the friends on my team bowled the first over, and whenever the batsmen struck a boundary, the captain (my friend) would get seriously pissed off and start yelling at the friend bowling. However, upon my bowling, if a boundary got struck, he would remain silent . Instead he smiled at me and bucked me on. Why would he act so nice ? I mean wouldnt mind being yelled at a little to boost up my performance.
This really confused the shit out of me and i'm wondering what does he think of me? Maybe he sees a good friend in me but the vibes i get from him hint otherwise. For now, i've decided to let our friendship grow and try to pick on more obvious signs.
Ps. He resembles tyler posey from teen wolf a hell lot and his smile is just so cute!

I lost mine...he was my best friend but now we just shake hands and say hi and that's it :'(

The touching is not a determinant of his sexuality.. many guys are touchy.

But, the stare could be. You just have to keep watching his personality when you're around him to be sure.

[Abyssal Echo]

he sounds like my last bf. its had to say if he's gay or bi he might just really like you. give it time if he's interested in doing stuff with you it'll happen.

[Joey.]

Some people just
interact that way, it's nothing out of the ordinary.
But maybe the stares could be,
If he is giving you flirtatious looks,
He may, or may not have interest in you..
Guys are complicated when it comes to trying to
figure them out :huh:

Ask him to spend the night and see what happens.

[Twilly F. Sniper]

A lot of guys I know are like that. They sometimes just act "gay".
