Question: Hypothetically speaking.... Lets say your best friend, a guy you hung out with all your life and was cool as , came out of the closet one day and told you he was gay.... How would you react?
Seriously.... picture your best friend and it turns out he was gay all that time you hung out together. No indication during that time. Would you suddenly abandon him because your that phobic?
I'm just curious.
I'll be honest. I was pissed at my brother when he "exited the closet" but after a while I realized he was still my brother and still acted the same around me.
It's unsetling when something like that comes out from someone you thought you knew, but at the end of the day (or weeks, or months, or years) you realize they are still the same person before their announcement.
