@OP

I'm quite certain Yang isn't gay, she just wanted Blake to be by her side for emotional support. I mean if Blake had thanked Yang for trying to save her instead of running away without a word, Yang wouldn't have been so crestfallen after the Battle of Beacon. And she wouldn't have dissed Ruby in "End of the Beginning", since she'd have known her efforts weren't for nothing. She still wouldn't have been able to accompany Ruby, but she wouldn't have been nearly as disspirited as we saw her in Volume 4, and may have gotten back on track a lot sooner.

So in short, wanting Blake doesn't always mean romantically, just for the company.
