Person help: Just found out my cousin is gay. - Help.com

family is family….don’t judge her, when someone has made a decision like that- it’s a hard life to lead, all this person needs is your support and respect..

I think she’s way confused about life. She doesn’t know what she wants.

I’ve been through this with a family member…
there’s no solution, you just have to wait and let them sort it out…
everyone is just trying to be happy, I would never risk taking that way from somebody.

I was very closes to my best friend. We were friends since we were little kids.
When she told me she was bye I was creeped out. I time I learn to except that.

How can you not be homophobic and yet you think it’s creepy and don’t agree with it?

well she is my best friend and I try to look out for her well-being. After all it isn’t her fault she’s bye and also it isn’t your cousin’s fault he’s gay

Sorry Sasuke, that was actually directed at the poster! :)

you should take it. its really hard to come out when you decide something like that BECAUSE its hard for others to swallow. don’t judge her BECAUSE of her sexuality. if she’s always mean to you and you don’t like her then thats fine, but don’t stop talking to her because she’s gay.

I think you need to just accept her for who she is. Who she is sexually attracted to should not affect your family relationship with her.

hello. Wow, so you just maintain the relationship as you normally did. You don’t have a relationship with your cousin because she’s mean?

What your cousin does in thier personal life doesn’t mean that they thier person has changed. the meaness may have had something to do with thier assuming that they would be met with anger and judgment and so there were premature walls put up in place to protect themselves.

If your cousin wants to talk with you about this, I would suggest being honest with them, but you don’t have to be harsh and mean. Let them know you don’t understand and how uncomfortable you feel, but that your love for them hasn’t changed. I would suspect that your cousin would appreciate the honesty more than the distance and after you get that all out in the open and clear the air… you do not have to let thier lifestyle change become a wedge between you. You can still be thier family member and love them and that doesn’t mean that you support thier decision.

Love is so confusing for most of us most of the time, and this is no different. Even if she’s mean to you… love her anyway as you would any other cousin… as you did before you knew this about her.

You will learn to accept her with time. Believe me, you will. Just give yourself some time to absorb this piece of shocking news.
