Older boyfriend wants to add a second male partner: what do I do?

Anonymous
asks:

I said that I was fine with it (assuming that he wanted another woman to join) but then he told me he wanted a man. I'm sort of uncomfortable about it. Does this mean he is gay?

I haven't been feeling anything at all and I've only done it once, just that night....
