OMG I have a new neighbor, and he is very hot!?

Taylor, Taylor, Taylor.

He's a little too old for you, isn't he? If you don't think so, the law thinks so.

And besides, I thought you learned your lesson about how to ask a guy out. Directly, honestly and openly FACE TO FACE, with no beating around the bush or playing any silly little girl games like writing letters or notes.

That's why everyone here was so proud of you when you asked that other guy out. It proved that you were a man.

Leave this guy alone. You don't want to get him into trouble with the law. However, for future reference, here's some good advice:

A lot of guys come here looking for a risk-free method of telling whether someone is gay, bi or straight. See my answer to this question for a discussion of how futile that is:

Besides, knowing someone's sexual orientation is not very useful. It really doesn't matter whether he is gay, bi or straight. All that matters is whether he is interested in YOU. He could be totally gay, and not interested in YOU at all, or totally straight, and still be willing to mess around or experiment with you. I've done it with a lot of my straight friends and schoolmates.

The best way to find out if someone is interested in you is TELL them you are interested in them, openly honestly and directly. You will almost always get a complete, honest and useful response.

The key word here is TELL, not ASK. TELL them openly, honestly and directly, without beating around the bush and playing silly games. Look them self-confidently straight in the eyes, and put on a great big warmhearted smile. The chances of getting a negative or hostile reaction are very low if you do this. Negative reactions are precipitated by sneakiness, creepiness, and hesitation.

I've told more than 100 guys using this method, and I've only gotten a handful of ambiguous responses. My success rate is 27% for gay and bi guys, and 19% for straight guys. That's pretty darn good.

Don't waste time analyzing "signs" and agonizing over "signals". You will never be satisfied and sure. Just hit on the guys you like and don't waste their time, either. You'll save a lot of time because you immediately get a useful answer. Even if it's "no", that's great. It frees you up to turn your attention to the next guy.

Cowards rarely find love. Sorry, but that's just how the real world works. Learn to follow it's rules, and life will be easy for you. Try to find a way around, and you'll end up sad and lonely.

Hope this helps.

Good luck!

I would get to know him a little better before you do something involving your sexuality. Next time you see him be like "Hi, my names Taylor. Whats your?" Strike up small talk and in the middle of it tell him your gay. If he's cool he'll be like "Oh, thats cool." or "Really? Me too!" then you guys will make out and have super hot sex. Joking, but yeah do that and I think you'll be fine.

Hope this helps!

Sending him the letter would be incredibly creepy/stalkerish.

If you want to go up and talk to him, seriously, just push yourself to do it. If you have to, start it with, "welcome to the neighborhood," but force yourself to talk to him. That'll be good for you even outside of the context of a relationship. Sometimes forcing yourself to do the things you're afraid of can be very rewarding (gives you a good rush anyway).

Talking to him is the only way to get to know him and find out what his orientation is.

Good luck!

Was 'Male Box' an intended pun?

Either way, do not put a letter casually inquiring about a stranger's sexuality in their postbox. That is *incredibly* strange.

If he's your neighbour, it's likely he'll be sticking around for a while - you'll get to know him eventually if you take it easy.

Maybe you should talk to him!!!!!! Just go over with like a pie or something (that's what they do on tv. And tv is always right) and be like "Hi I'm *insert name here* and I live next door. I just wanted to say welcome to the neighborhood" The he'll say something. Then once it's over you get out of his line of sight and then pee in your pants.

just be like hey whats up im your new neighbor i live in that house *point* just wanted to welcome you to the neighborhood and if he tries to make conversation there you go your in the clear and if still wants to talk to you he might be interested or you can find out if hes gay, bi, or straight

Do NOT put a note like that in their mailbox -- that's a very bad idea.

Just be a courteous neighbor! Go over and introduce yourself. Say, "Hi, my name is Taylor, welcome to the neighborhood. What's your name and where are you from?"

Be brave. Just do itt.

Hmm, what are your hopes, Taylor? Be brave -- good luck for making a friendship.

A male box? I wish I had one of those... O_o

Anyhow. The letter is a bad idea. Seriously. Conversation. Haz sum.

That would be terribly wierd and creepy! Lol, you're gonna have to ... **** if your out then ask him to the movies and then you'll know if he is gay or not! If your in, then you'll have to befriend him to find out... find out his full name then find his myspace, if he has one, and see what he's all about.

DO NOT do the letter thing. that is creepy as hell.

just try to talk to him if you happen to see him outside. welcome him to the neighborhood and ask him to hang out.
