Is the boy I like gay like me?

Seems to me like he likes you, and if he came out, even if he took it back is a pretty good sign of someone being gay. If you share looks all the time the next time he looks at you don't look away, keep stable eye contact. And just because he hangs out with girls all time dose not mean he's gay, but again a pretty good sign. In other words go for it just start by talking to him and use casual flirting don't make it obvious. Good Luck :)
