In year 7 my best friend who I've been friends with since we were both 3 came out to me. When he told me we were sitting on his bed and we were home alone he started to ask me about what I think of homosexuality, I told him I fully support it which i've told him before. Then his started to ask me if I thought being gay was a choice, what would I think if my brother was gay and more questions like that, then I looked at him and to him stop beating around bush and tell me what he wanted to and stop with the ridiculos questions. Then he turned to me and took a breath and said I'm gay then shoved his face into his pillow and started crying, I tried to comfort him by telling him I'd accept him and still be his friend. So it's been about 2 years now he is still gay and only I know a few days ago we were alone and i asked him why he told me , out of everyone her knew and he said it was because he trusted me, he also said if he told his dad he would get his uncle, brother and pop and beat him shitless everyday and his mom and Nan would disown him. Then he started to panic and look at me and started to ask me if I had told anyone, I told him no and i wouldn't without his permission.
My friend doesn't have access to wifi at home to find help onlineand like I said his family are pretty homophobic, he won't tell the school counciler because he is scared some kid will over hear then tell his brother, my family aren't against homosexuality but he is scared my mom will tell his and then he will be in shit. I know some people will think I'm stepping out of line but I want him to get help to guide him through, I don't want him living in constant fear that his dad will find out, but I don't want him to feel as though I've betrayed his trust. So please, help.

I know how he feels, sadly I live in a homophobic family, and Im gay as well. I would recommend just letting him come over your house and show him tjis website. It will help him out ALOT, yeah since he doesnt have internet and all, let him come over and use your pc, phone, etc. To access this forum.

I think you should just be there for him when he needs, that's the better thing you can do to him right now. If only your friend and you know about this, then he doesn't have anything to fear, because his secret is safe.

Is it possible to invite him around your house and show him a website called 'The Trevor Project' as he can't get wifi at his house? I think it might help him.
