What do you do when you like a boy who may or may not be gay?

Well asking him would just be best but not so much in an up-frontal way I guess maybe just go with him to the mall spot a hot guy out and say wow he is just to cute and see what he says and or does. Then maybe you will not have to ask bc he will tell you on his own. Now if he is gay then you can always still try or at least just tell him you have feelings for him but understand that he has no emotional ties to woman in that manner. If he is not well that's in your favor either way always be upfront and truthful because he will respect you more for doing so. Guys do not really like the beat around the ball approach they like directness I have 6 brother two whom in fact are gay so I hope this helped I apologize if not.
