Be friends with his close friends and ask them about him, if he's straight say something like: "Oh...seriously? Whenever I talk to him he seems really out of it," and if he is gay say something like: "Is that why whenever I talk to him he acts weirdly?" Or..something like that.
I wouldn't have any experience in this since I'm not out of the closet yet ( =C ), so if it seems childish to do that, I wouldn't deny it.

What makes 1st friend's advice so interesting is that she has a crush on me, and was crushed when I came out to her. I'm beginning to wonder if she's just saying these things to subconsciously "get back at me" if that makes any sense. But who knows?
I think she realizes what she's doing. I bet she is just trying to ruin your hopes for her own selfish desires. Straighties, who understands them?
