Please help me help a friend

[neffam3]

Help me on this one guys I need everyone's Input on this one! Tell your friends about this. Share it. You may think I am insignificant along with this post but I am doing this for my friend. You see, my friend thinks he is gay and is ashamed and thinks his friends will hate him. Help me prove this wrong by giving your opinion so he does not think he has to hide who he is. So please, help me. If not for me but for him. Thank you for participating.

As long as he has a friend like you he should be fine

Awwww I agree. Give your friends a hug from me :) :hug3:

[Zachary G]

Yeah as he has a good friend like you in his life, it shouldnt matter what other people think, he should feel free to be himself. teach him how to love himself and be proud of who he is. help him be strong

You're an amazing friend, I wish I had a friend like you. After realizing how cruel and inconsiderate certain people are about the LGBT, I am proud of you for posting a thread on helping your friend. You should tell him to embrace who he is and be confident. If his friends don't like him or hate him... you should tell him to look for better friends. No need to spend his time on people who do not like him JUST BECAUSE of his sexual orientation.

[Hudor]

It is genuinely nice of you to make such a thread for your friend. It is always good to have supportive friends more so for someone belonging to a minority because that sense of acceptance is a major boost-up. Knowing that people won't judge you for being what you are gives a person a lot of confidence. Great job :D

Its not unusual for our age to have sexual thoughts and that does not mean he is gay.

[Body odah Man]

Poor guy. Hope he finds out he don't need to worry

[TheLoneWolf]

I'm gay myself and I don't dare to tell my friends yet because I'm scared they will look at me differently too, so I can totally imagine!
Two of my friends have come out to me and I don't look at them differently at all. At first I would be like 'Ooh, okay. Well that's different.' But after that I wouldn't even think about it anymore.

[Croconaw]

I wouldn't care if he was gay. I'll still be friends with him.

[Unde4dmau5]

I mean, I wouldn't mind if a friend of mine was gay. I mean, I would probably even be a bit excited (considering I'm bi, of course). But you are really a great friend for supporting your friend like you are!

[ChrisTJ]

I think it's amazing what you are doing for your friend. Your friend is so lucky to have a friend like you to be there and support him. Yes there are people in the world that will have a problem with gays and bisexuals but the people that really matter are the people who would put an arm round him and crack open a beer together as buddies. Please drink responsibly ;)

[neffam3]

Well the problem is that im not DIRECTLY his friend, we met online so it dosnt really matter what i think. So just because he has a friend like me dosnt mean anything

[JAKE1445]

give him a hug it took a lot for him to come out and come to terms with it, I know when I came out I was crying and I told one of my friends and she gave me a hug and it felt so good


:D:metal::yeah:

[SmokyChica]

Some people probably would perceive him differently and he would find some jokes at his expense, especially depending on his age. I think if he is ready he will come out and if he is not, do not push him. Just be there for him, tell him there is nothing to be ashamed of, and when he is ready he will take that step. Be glad he shared this knowledge with you and if he decides to come out, be sure you are there for him so he does not feel alone.

[James Dean]

That's very nice of you to care for your friend. He shouldn't be ashamed of himself. Yeah there are bigots and jerks out there, but they are a small majority. That's just one part of his lifestyle shouldn't matter to anything.

[neffam3]

Hmmm. You know thinking back when we were talking he clearly stated NOT to help him with this. Now I feel bad for helping...

[James Dean]

Well, you really shouldn't be feel bad. He might have said that but as his friend you want to look out for him and be there for him. Maybe he is too ashamed to be honest with you about it. You can still be happy knowing that you did a good favor for him by being open with him. Just supporting him regardless is what matters. The thing is he shouldn't be scared or try to change himself. He can't help who he is and I give you props for trying to look out for him.

[DeadEyes]

It would come as a nice surprise to me.

[Perfectly Flawed]

You have to remember that the results you find here will be very biased towards the pro-gay side. While I think most people are okay with having friends who are gay, remind your friend that he needs to be prepared for when he meets someone who isn't okay with his sexuality.

[Karkat]

Well the problem is that im not DIRECTLY his friend, we met online so it dosnt really matter what i think. So just because he has a friend like me dosnt mean anything

It's still really neat that you'd do something like this. If I was afraid how others would view me, and a friend did this for me, I'd be really touched. :)

[neffam3]

well it turns out that he doesn't care what his friends think so THIS IN COMPLETELY USELESS....

[vboy]

Tell him thatbit dosent matter if he is or isnt and if anyoneelse has a problem its them who has to deal with it

[CharlieHorse]

I said the second one because consider if I had a crush on that person, and I was going to ask them out, but then I learened they don't like my gender, then I'd have to change my thinking about them. That doesn't mean I would love them any less! :D <3
