Whos the most understanding person you know - Empty Closets - A safe online community for gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgendered people coming out

-Michael- · 3rd Aug 2008, 01:54 PM

Im talking to the most understanding guy on the planet.

Okay so this lad from my school who i never really liked added me on myspace and was like
"finally come out ey?"

We've been talking for like 2 hours and he's the most out spken guy i know.

Everyone else just beats round the bushbut he's really forward and just asks and jokes

Im really enjoying the conversation.

So...

Who the most understanding person you know (who you're out to).
The person who oyu can just about say anything around.

**Lexington** · 3rd Aug 2008, 02:32 PM

Most the people I know are really understanding. I'd say my parents are at the top of that list, though.

Not to be self-centered or anything, but I'd say that I'm the most understanding person I know. Everybody speaks bullshit and nobody really cares for what I have to say, or what's bothering me, and yet they all come crying to me every time I need advice.

I think I need to rethink my friends.

3rd Aug 2008, 03:32 PM

I'd have to say my mom is the most understanding. I can talk about literally anything around her and she never judges me or anyone.

xballetxbeautyx · 3rd Aug 2008, 03:52 PM

Well it used to be my best friend and I guess it still sort of is, except when things get incredibly awkward thanks to me being stupid enough to tell her I had a crush on her... thankfully that's gone away.

Paralyzer · 3rd Aug 2008, 04:27 PM

I don't have any understanding friends.
They are either too emotional or too logical and it doesn't work out that way.
No one seems to balance those things out..

Actually, I think Jedd is probably the most understanding of everyone I know.
He'll probably hate me for saying this, but he understand others more than he does himself. haa..

jazzrawr · 3rd Aug 2008, 04:36 PM

Hmmm...My mom, (<3<3<3)
My friend Ingrid and my sister.
Theyre the people i tell everything and they don't judge.

(I'm trying to get my mom to be an EC mom. It's starting to work ^.^)

TeeJers · 3rd Aug 2008, 04:50 PM

Mine would have to be my sister. We are kinda like Yin-yang we really balance each other out and she always listens and understands what I am going through.

ok455 · 3rd Aug 2008, 04:57 PM

My ex best friend before she let drinking drugs etc and her ex boyfriend take over her life. She used to be really easy to talk too we would talk on the phone for hours and hours and she understood me like a book.

Geist · 3rd Aug 2008, 05:16 PM

I would have to say my friend Win. But that is mostly because she is the only friend who totally believes me.

Absentminded · 3rd Aug 2008, 05:27 PM

I'd have to say, either my exgirlfriend, or my best mate. Probably my ex though, because we have a lot of the same issues, on slightly different levels, and she understands some of my girl stuff more.

SwissBoy88 · 3rd Aug 2008, 06:01 PM

I's say it's my mom. All my friends think she's really cool, and she really is.

I can tell her everything and she does not judge me.

Tim · 3rd Aug 2008, 06:08 PM

Hmm, one of the people I consider a second mom, she's soooo supportive of me being gay, and personally, I don't know where I'd be without her, she gave me the courage and support to come out to my family, which even though it was through myspace I did it, I couldn't have done it without her.

Any problem I have, she's there, which is just plain awesome.

rosiejuly3 · 3rd Aug 2008, 06:34 PM

Gosh it has to be my old bff and the girl that helped me discover my sexuality while she was going through the same thing. I can tell her anything in the world and I know she will always be there supporting me. Shes also my best bi friend. I love her and I try to be as kind and understanding as her.

Cheese Love · 3rd Aug 2008, 10:31 PM

Probably my friend Elizabeth. She totally knew I was gay before it was said and we can easily joke around about it because she's bisexual.

We have this thing with reffering to pride parades as "libraries", saying all the librarians march in the streets and stuff... Oh, and that she's a part-time librarian, lol.

She has a humorous side about it, but is also very serious when it comes to the equal rights. You can't ask for more.

**Maddy** · 3rd Aug 2008, 11:14 PM

My sister, or a great Internet friend of mine. I've never met her in person, but we talk through MSN all the time and have for two or three years.

ditto... she was making gay jokes and talking about hot guys before i was after i told her.

FukingPerfect · 1st Aug 2011, 09:03 PM

The most understanding person I know is my boyfriend, Jay. He is the one who told me he was bi and he told me that he wished that everyone wasn't so scared to come out of the closet. So we talked for a while and he told me to be honest with my friends. So I told most of my friends that day and a month later, today, we started going out :-))

Leif · 2nd Aug 2011, 11:43 PM

My best friend Josiah. He's a few years younger then me and has been openly gay since he was 14. I have a huge amount of respect for him and love him more then I'll ever be able to explain. I honestly don't know what I would do without him. Even though we live in two different countries and don't get to talk much he still finds ways of lifting my spirits.

ilayis · 2nd Aug 2011, 11:47 PM

My friend Angela.Will listen to all my problems and have me over basically everytime I truly nee a friend.
