(Its a long story, I’ll promise I’ll put a TLDR at the end) I’ve been friends with this kid since 6th grade. We were both weird, unathletic kids who liked Minecraft and broadcasting class, and he was my only friend for a while. The only conflict in our friendship was our political beliefs; he’s a Trump-supporting Catholic, and I’m a Dem. But besides from that, everything was fine, until today. Last year, I finally realized that I was bisexual, but I stayed closeted because I live in a Really conservative area and because I was still in school. I did tell some of my very close friends and my family, but I didn’t tell this friend because I was afraid of what would happen, and unfortunately, I was right. I told him today. He got upset, said I should’ve told him earlier. Then he told me that I should go to church with him, and that it might help. I asked him how it would help, and he started to go on this homophobic rant about how I was going to hell. This was a shock to me, because in all of our conversations he seemed to be very supportive of the LGBT+ community. I ended up leaving by myself and going home. TLDR: My friend went on a homophobic rant after I told him I was bisexual. It’s been 6 hours and I’m still not over it. Did I do something wrong? What do I do now? (Sorry if it’s written weird, it’s almost one in the morning here and I’ve been an emotional wreck for the past few hours) Edit 1: Going to bed now, thanks for all the kind messages (including those who sent pms) Edit 2: Wanted to answer a couple of questions: 1. What he said was homophobic, he told me it was disgusting that I could even think about gay you-know-what, despite the fact I told him i was more interested romantically than sexually in men. 2. I am an Episcopalian, who’re traditionally more tolerant of the LGBT community. I am not very religious though. 3. I’ve reached out to him, he hasn’t responded yet. 4. We’re both seniors in high school. 5. He said he couldn’t support my “lifestyle choice” and left. So yes, he never said the exact words “I don’t want to be your friend.”
