Nathan Walter is usually seen locked up alone in his room strumming his guitar, but one particular episode in My Life with the Walter Boys gives him the spotlight and introduces who he is.

This was when Jackie had a silent auction project to do with Grace (Ellie O'Brien) and Skylar (Jaylan Evans).

When Skylar had paint spilled over his shirt, it was Nathan who lent him an extra from his closet. This scene raised the question, is Nathan Walter gay in the series?

The two shared a moment and on the next day, Nathan mustered up the courage and asked Skylar out on a date, which confirms he does like boys.

This is a different take on Nathan from the original story in Ali Novak's novel.

Meanwhile, Netflix focused on Skylar and Nathan becoming an item, but it wasn't all smooth sailing. Skylar initially had to reject him knowing that he's technically Jackie's half-brother and Skylar feels weird about it.

Halfway through the series, though, Skylar starts avoiding Nathan all because the Walter boy wrote him a song even before they started dating.

Nathan hadn't known that the song was too intense a move until he asked his brothers for dating advice.

Thankfully, though, Skylar came around and officially asked Nathan out on a date because of how honest he was. They shared a kiss before even going on their first date together.

Take note that My Life with the Walter Boys doesn't directly confirm whether Nathan Walter is gay or bisexual but it's up to interpretation.
