My best friend and his older sister know I'm gay. But his parents and his younger sister(he's the middle child) don't know. I don't know what to do or how to bring it up. I also don't want to lose my best friend because they don't want me to be around him. I am terrified of his dad as it is.
Why don't you just not bring it up? His parents don't have to know. They ain't doing much for you! Do you think there is a chance that they may tell their parents or something?
Well, they are catholic, but they are reformed catholic ---------- Post added 21st Jun 2014 at 03:16 PM ---------- His dad Is and FBI agent
You could just bring it up if they ask if you have a girlfriend/boyfriend or whatever. It doesn't need to be a big "coming out" unless you want it to be. You don't like girls and that's all it is.
bring it up casually in a conversation and see what their stance about the whole idea of LGBT. try thinking of certain topics and issues that might get them thinking without having yourself to come out. you can also encourage to where they might stand in comparison to their religion. it's true that they don't really need to know about it. i'd say approach it carefully.
What does your best friend think about you coming out to his parents? He may have a pretty good idea on how his parents feel about LGBT issues.
