What would you do ... ?

If you found out your best friend's "child" is gay and they were afraid to tell their family?

My best friend's adult child is gay and my friend is wondering why he doesn't "bring a nice girl home to meet them". >>> My nephew goes to uni with him and is fully aware and accepting of his boyfriend. I have attempted to broach the subject with his mother and she shuts the conversation down.

She's probably worked it out - but doesn't want to know,perhaps is in denial. Stay well out of it,don't risk jeopardising your good friendship with her.

@craig7 I won't. It's difficult watching people you love go through personal struggles. My deepest worry is that she is going to ask me if I knew and if I say yes, she will be angry with me.

I just want her and her son to know that everything will be OK and that they are both loved profoundly.
