    My friend is a coward. Simple as that really.

    It pained me so much typing that out because I think I’ve been in denial up until this point lol. I would be dishonest if I said it doesn’t hurt. Feels like a nearly 13 year friendship circling down the toilet.

    I don’t hang out with that group anymore tho so it’s all good.

      That's rough. We expect our friends to have a line that an asshole will cross and hope they'll shut that shit down when it matters.

      My friend in my original post seemed to be okay with me coming out, but then sat by and let her (closeted) boyfriend say horrendous shit around me. I won't say how you should feel about your friend, but you deserve people in your life who respect your values.

        Hey I just wanted to thank you for your kind words at the end there. I really needed to hear that.

        I tend to lose sight of the fact that there are so many people in the world who can relate to nearly everything in some fashion. It gives me hope every time I remember that.

          Of course. You deserve people who have your back just because you're a human being, but you're a comrade too and I hope you feel that at least while you're here. :heart-sickle:
