Is he gay or just...different?

Has he made any other moves like that?

 

He doesn't seem shy. Ask him.

 

Foot fetish?
No but seriosuly I have no idea how to analyze this, except he really likes feet. Personally for me feet creep me out and even then i doubt anyone goes to great lengths such as that...

 

Does he know you're gay?

 

If you want to know more about him or how he feels about you, then I think you should come out to him. He might be gay, but hesitating to come out because he's not sure how you'll react. Or he might be straight, but it sounds like he'll be accepting anyway.

 

Dude this is the weirdest thing I've ever read, seriously! It's funny how I don't what to answer to such a story, his foot fetish is just weird, and I think he might be gay

 

Yeah, okay, so it's a bit weird. That doesn't mean there's anything wrong with it, though.

 

If you are ok with it, I don't see that there is anything wrong with it.

You should come out to him. It's impossible to date same-sex people who don't know that you're queer. So, coming out to him is the next step.

You might also go ahead and ask him about the whole foot thing, and let him know that it was cool with you. He might be embarrassed of it. On the other hand, you let him do it for half an hour, so he's probably not as worried as he would be otherwise. I expect that most people probably get weirded out when he does that.

In the end, did you pull away, or did you let him keep your feet on his face until he wanted to stop?

I'm not sure that there is a non-sexual way to interpret that behavior. My guess would be that he's a gay guy with a foot fetish. If you are okay with the foot fetish (as you seem to be), I think you should go for it. Come out to him, and ask if his interest is limited to your feet.

 

If it makes you more comfortable, you could probably lead into it with the foot thing. Like, "I notice you seem to have an interest in men's feet. I wanted to let you know that I'm gay, and your attention to my feet is okay with me. You probably noticed that when I let you keep them on your face for half an hour, but I just wanted to make sure it was clear. Maybe we could hang out again next week. How about Tuesday?"

Seriously, I think you're in.

 

I can't see how he wouldn't be at the very least bi-curious. I think you'll be fine.

 

Sounds hot...OK, I'm terrible. But from the fetisher gallery, just sayin'

 

Um, no. I don't think he's likely to be judgmental with you. I mean, it's sort of possible that he won't be interested in you like that, but the foot thing is something that a lot of people will find weird. If you are accepting of his foot fetish, and let him put your feet on his face without really even discussing it, I don't think he's likely to be unaccepting of your sexuality.

Just be clear that it's fine if he just wants to be friends, and I think it should be okay. I don't think that's what he wants, though. Putting your feet on his face isn't exactly normal "friend" behavior.

Don't wait for the hiking. Do it at the next study session. You will probably have an excellent opportunity when he puts your feet on his face again. (You know he's going to, right?)

Look, you should really consider this from his side. He's actually given some pretty clear indicators that he's into you. And, that comment about his telling the girl he's gay might have been his way of coming out to you--you might want to clarify on that. But from his perspective, you are a probably straight guy who let him play with his feet. (Or, more likely, he's just as confused and worried about your sexuality as you are about his--"he let me put his feet on my face! Do you think that means he's gay?!")
