    I have a closeted bisexual male friend that is interested in mostly men, very few people know and his family definitely does not. Sometimes in person he will discuss his being bi a little bit, but never through text. I have many gay family members and I've had a few gay friends, but I've never been close with any of them. Sometimes I get scared I'm going to say the wrong thing to him. What are ways I can bring his being bi up without offending him in any way, what would be appropriate and what wouldn't be? How do I let him know I am here for support? He's admitted he's been trying to find himself for years now, how can I help him do this? I am also trying to find myself, in many different ways. It's one of the things we have in common. Would it be wrong to try and find him dates? I know this is a lot but I'm not sure how to make him feel completely comfortable discussing it with me
