What should I do if I think someone is LGBT, but they haven’t told me?
Again, remember that assumptions on your part may be inaccurate.  The best approach is to create an atmosphere where that individual can feel comfortable coming to you.  You can do this by making sure you are open and approachable, by giving them indications that you are comfortable with this topic and that you are supportive of LGBT concerns.  If the person is already “out” to themselves, and they feel you are worthy of their trust, then they may tell you.  If the person seems to be in conflict about something, it may or may not be their sexuality.  In this case, it is best to simply make sure they know you are there if they need to talk. Remember, they may not have told you because they don’t want you to know.
