How to respond when a gay friend comes out of the closet
Be civil regardless of your beliefs.
Not everyone shares the same beliefs and it's possible that you may have reservations about homosexuality. While you have every right to maintain any set of beliefs you wish, don't hold your friend to the standard of your belief system.
Options:
+ Even if you don't understand, try to appreciate the fear and stress involved in coming out to you. Your friend is still your friend, regardless of your feelings about homosexuality..
+ Acknowledge the fact that he or she just went through a long and troubled process and is doing this out of anger. If someone comes out, be prepared to listen to their comments..
+ Doing so can cause tension and excitement in your interactions, which can be disastrous for friendships. Whatever your beliefs are, don't keep them in the dark..
+ Try to understand his or her perspective and emotions without judgment or unwelcome criticism. If a friend comes out of the closet despite his or her beliefs, accept the fact that it's rude and hurtful..
Even if you don't understand, try to appreciate the fear and stress involved in coming out to you. Your friend is still your friend, regardless of your feelings about homosexuality.
