    I really like telling the truth, but I don't know if my extended family on my mother's side is homophobic or not... :eusa_pray

    Well, from your Out Status I take it you've told your mam, so maybe asking her opinion on how accepting they are. Next time you're with them you could try bringing up some recent LGBT+ news and gage their opinions from their reactions to that. Good luck anyway it happens!

    Ok. Yeah. I've told my immediate family and most friends. Thanks! By the way, good luck with your friend. I hope that things go well!
