Antonio, the protagonist of the story, is extremely good friends with Bassanio.
I have come up on a hypothesis that Antonio is gay and Bassanio is a bisexual.
Antonio seems to like Bassanio in a romantic way. Antonio is a male. Bassanio is
a male. Bassanio likes Antonio in a romantic way and also loves Portia, a female.

When Salanio comes, Salerio comes. When Salerio goes, Salanio goes.
