What is Gay Friend?
1.
An insult, although not meant to disparage actual gay people. It is a pheneomenon in which a heterosexual man unsuccessfully attempts to woo a woman and winds up being an intimate but wholly platonic friend instead. The man naively believes that if he just sticks around long enough, and shows the woman his sincerity, a romantic relationship will eventually develop. In actuality, this will never, ever happen. Hence the man is the "de-facto gay friend." One can also be a "post-relationship gay friend." In this situation, a romantic relationship ends, but the woman says, "let's be friends; I still want you to be my best friend." The man, somewhat pathetically, agrees to this proposal because of confusion, cowardice, or simple foolishness.
Don't be the gay friend, dude, because she's not really interested.

A male who spends excessive time with girls who he believes are attracted to him, while in reality are just friends or think he's cute because he's 4 feet tall. Another component of the gay friend is the act of participating in outings, events, or trips, with solely females. The decision of whether or not someone is "the gay friend" is largely based on whether or not he has hooked up with one of the girls he's spending time with. 9 out of 10 times, he has not, and likely won't in the near future; determined to be The Gay Friend. The Gay Friend is never actually homosexual, but deserves the title since he assumes a similar position(and relationship) that of a gay man would with girls. Usually summed up by; if you're hanging out a lot with a girl(s) and you're not scoring...you're the gay friend.
