Absolutely, Positively Not... by David Larochelle is about a boy who is gay. The full title continues on the inside cover with ... Gay.
Steven has known he was gay since he was a little kid. But he will not admit it to himself. He does everything he can to avoid facing reality. He follows a step-by-step guide from a book he finds in the library. He goes on a marathon dating spree. He has even tried playing sports.
But nothing makes him think about his favorite teacher any less often. Finally he has to face the facts. His best friend, Rachel, is thrilled that he has finally come out. Her family has known since Steven was seven.
