so, ive seen alot of the theorys on this forum, and here is my own thoughts about the G-Man, this is my first thread, so please do tell me if i "misplaced" the thread 
now, lets get started: i dont agree with the "gordon is gman" theory, although i will admit that they could be related. Another theory says that GMan is there to stop Gordon from making a mistake, but the one thing that bothers me the most is that i cant figure out who these "employers" are. you might have noticed in the cutscenes, that he often mentions the so called Employers, and throughout HL1 and HL2, we see him talking to different characters. for instance, we see him talk to Breen in the start of HL1 (Breen is the administrator of Black Mesa). in addition, we see him talk to Odessa Cubbage in the sequel, HL2. My guess is that some of these people are "Employers" and that GMan, offers Gordons "services". my theory is, that GMan is related to Gordon, and that he wishes to correct his mistake, and then seizes the opportunity to offer gordons services to different characters. about this mistake, i think it was the black mesa incident. As Gman fails to prevent the incident in HL1, he wants Gordon to prevent the consequences in HL2. then another puzzle is to be solved: Why did GMan kill Eli? it is certain that Eli knew about the Gman, as he describes him: "our mutual friend". but why kill him? my first thoughts were that GMan had to kill Eli in order to scare Gordon away from the Borialis, and eventually, he and Alyx wouldnt go there. now, the Borialis was an Aperture-science ship, and as we know from Portal, their main field of work is portals. we know that Portals can affect time itself, because in HL2 you escape from Nova Prospekt and turn up in City-17 a week later. My guess would be, that the Gman is travelling back in time using Borialis's portal-technology. this would prove my theory about elis death, and the dissapearing of the Borialis.
this is just a bunch of thoughts and words, so dont expect it to make sense, but still tho, take the time to read it all XD
