Wait a sec. I think I'm missing a point here.

Should I inform the prospective LI that I'm gay, at all? And how long can I wait before doing that? I'm still on my 1st run and apparently on the default single route, but I've been very tight-lipped about my business - could that be the reason? Adam I informed first, but not at once, then a bunch of people at Q&A (as in, that was obvious, why else would I go there), then Jake and Co during his own scene... then Carlos while being on the phone with parents, and that was already past mid-October by then.

You'll come out to each of the LIs at an appropriate time, if you have enough affection to start on their path in October. (In Carlos' case, it'll be more that Adam accidentally outs you when trying to help him deal with his feelings for you.)

When you come out has no impact on the routes, other than potentially reducing the amount of time you have to get close to a guy (for example, if you visit Q&A later in the game, and therefore have less time with James and Dan before October).

Good to know, thanks for the explanation.

Also...  I only just realized that I never expressed attraction to any of the guys upon first meeting them.  That probably didn't help matters. Now in 2nd playthrough I've decided to become instantly attracted to Adam and Carlos and - wow, how the inner monologue changed! XD (Immersion is not as strong any more, though. Hard to say why, maybe the MC is just getting too bothered for it to feel realistic).

Great game, anyway. Thank you. It literally made my day today.

Being attracted to someone only impacts the "secret" route. It only affects narration (and some scene variations) for everyone else.
