I can’t tell if this lad I like is gay

    I’m going to sound horribly stereotypical, but we’re both doing a course that would traditionally attract women. Our course is probably 80% female. At any rate, for the last 2 weeks he’s purposely sat with or near me in our mutual lectures. He has waited outside of the lectures to talk to me a few times if we aren’t sitting close. He even waited a few minutes outside of a shop when he saw me go in. I ended up going to a bookshop and then coffee with him last week when we had nothing to do.

    My friend in our course is always teasing me because his face “lights up” when he sees me and he always seems to be around me. When he sees us outside of class he says “hi (my name)” despite knowing my friend too. However, he asked for my Snapchat last week but hasn’t snapped me yet. I can’t help but wonder if he’s actually gay and likes me as a friend or if he fancies me? It just seems like normal behaviour for a lad that fancies a girl? But the fact that he hasn’t so much as snapchatted me yet makes me think otherwise?

    Snapchatting? What's that then?

    Holy moly... interact with him in real life, never mind Snapchat!

    If you like him, ask him out.

    Drop the hand, that's the easiest way to find out

    He definitely, without any shadow of a doubt, fancies you
    We’re a two piece jigsaw in reality, easy to figure out

    Nursing or teaching? :D Sounds to me like he fancies you, particularly if your friend is poking fun at you about it. He sounds adorable.

    You could ask him directly, if you are friendly and he is gay he won't care (and most straight guys these days won't actually care either).

    If not, try to bring up girlfriends/exes as a topic of conversation. Or just ask if he has a girlfriend. He'll clear that up fairly quickly if he's gay.

    If still in doubt, then ask him out :P

    Good luck OP :)
