If a guy ignores you, is he gay?

Just got back from a business trip in Fukuoka. Tired but alive. Good thing about it is that the employees had the chance to meet those from the other branches and mingle, get to know each other and familiarize the face of the person behind the Skype name which we always message to every day.
So we have this male co-worker who maintained this frowning face all throughout the event. He seldom smiled. He spoke in the same way the dog barks. And I constantly made it a point not to cross his path.
But a female co-worker finds his scowl attractive. Not afraid of his presence, she made a few attempts to get to know him better. Offering him a sandwich or tea every now and then; doing a few errands for him; understanding his English; etc. etc. Futile attempts which made her conclude that he must be gay not to notice her advances.
Is my female co-worker correct?

Rubbish. It doesn't mean he's gay at all. He just doesn't fancy your friend. She flatters herself to think she's so irresistable. Perhaps he has a girlfriend or perhaps he's just got a lot on his mind at the moment but basically, he's just not into her.

Perhaps, the guy isn't genuinely interested.

@sol_cee admit it, some guys and some girls aren't genuinely interested. No big secret there.

@sol_cee I can't think of a Bible verse that would answer the question about if someone ignores a person would that make him gay.

Let me check him out first, after which i can make my own conclusion.
Not quite sure if one can conclude that man is gay when he ignored her. I haven't been ignored by many men including gays (I make sure they become my friends like that one in the picture), but I've been ignored by a lot of women lol!

@sol_cee But she must accept the reality. My husband experienced that from an office mate but even if her office mate were calling him torpe or bakla he did not mind because he had no interest with that woman as his heart belongs to me already.

When it comes to the opposite gender, I am really shy. Even though he is smart, handsome and friendly, those things will not make me do the first move. Despite my attitude toward other men, I still have many male friends. I have observed different behaviours. Some are very talkative while some are timid and quiet. I have observed that some male friends who are very talkative and have always something to comment are gays. Other males are just quiet and do not interact much unless they think of something interesting to talk of. There are other males who are chatty when they like a certain woman while gets quiet to the opposite gender when they do not like them.

@sol_cee If I am not mistaken, men really get talkative when they got drunk already. That is why I am thinking that maybe if I want to know the truth I should make my man drunk.

It was depends on the action of the guy, I'm a guy who always ignore some of the girl because I know that we'll don't have a same attitude that possible ends with "Enemies" and to avoid those scenario's i'll start by ignoring them, I might talk to them sometimes but not too attach or close..

He could have a partner though, so it is wrong to assume he's gay because he is not responding to the girl.

@sol_cee See comment originally from @Boingboing - your friend flatters herself to think she's going to be the one. What will be will be. If he's attracted to her then he will make a move. If not, then move on!

He may be or may not be a gay. Even if he is a gay there is no need to bark at all others. He can act normal. He can smile. No need to keep frowning face. All I can say he is trying to be over smart. Or he may be having some psychological issues. Even if he is not having any issue and he is normal it is not necessary that he should start speaking very nicely to all good looking or attractive looking ladies.

There could be many reasons for not reciprocating your (female) friend's advances by that guy. It is not fair to conclude that he would be a gay that is why he ignored your friend.

@sol_cee You are right. But in your friend's case it was one sided affair, as far as I understand.

LOL - just because a guy is not interested in a girl making advances on him does not mean that he is gay. There have been females who have flirted with both my husbands, and I would sit back and watch and laugh, because the girls never did and never would have a chance of getting their attention.
This guy could have been in a relationship ... or not looking for a relationship, especially since it was at a work function ... so he was not realizing or interested in flirting with her.

i'm glad that'cha'd the opportunity to meet those folks'n which ya correspond with so frequent. 's fer that fella? i'd not pass judgement'n his preference. sounds from yer description that he seems a bit haunted. who knows, a lovely lady might've jest broken his heart.
