So, if you have a LGBT friend or family member who feels safe with coming out to you, heres what you should and shouldn't do.
Reminder: If you're religion doesn't allow LGBT, that's fine. But don't be a jerk about it.
What to do :
If your companion should come out as LGBT, you should support them no matter what. You should also let them know you accept who they are, and let them know they can trust you with anything else. Being accepting towards someone, can really boost your friendship / relationship, and people will want to be around you more if they figure out you're supportive to them.
What NOT to do :
You definitely shouldn't say anything bad about them. If your companion feels they can trust you, but it turns out they can't? They won't really want to be near you. Being homophobic, or unsupportive can really ruin relationships with just about anyone. Then again, if you let them know it's against your religion, they should understand. If not, they're the villain in this situation.
But you should never be rude about someones sexuality or gender. If someone is non-binary and a lesbian, heck that's not your problem! It isn't your body, so don't complain about it. Like i said before, homophobia ruins relationships. So be supportive or, stop reading?
