Friends with a guy

Right now, I'm friends with a guy, and I have a sneaking suspicion that he likes me. He flirts with me a lot and kinda drops sexual innuendos. He saves a seat for me on the bus and texts me all of the time. I really don't like it, and I've been dropping obvious hints that I'm a lesbian. It's getting to the point where I want to come out to him and tell him, but I also don't want to lose him as a friend. Then again, I really don't like how he makes sexual jokes and stuff like that...should I be friends with him at all? What should I do?

@silentmelodyy Hi, well maybe he doesn't realise that your gay. Could be time to let him know and then take it from there? Let him know the rude stuff he says isn't acceptable that you won't ever be anything but friends. If he over steps the mark still then maybe he isn't a friend after all. Best wishes :)

@Hayley44 thank you very much, and perhaps I probably should finally tell him. Thanks again for the advice! :)

@silentmelodyy I know you posted this a couple months ago, but I'll give my input just in case. My best friend was a guy, and I had suspicions he liked me too. And it turned out he did, so I guess always trust your instinct. I didn't like him back, and of course, it's always hard to rejest someone especially if they're your best friend. I find the best way to communicate is to just be so honest with that person, honest and direct always helps. If you can, try and keep the friendship, it could be worth it.
