Man, you guys are great. I'm loving all of this positivity, and I like that problems are getting solved. Absolutely wonderful. Onto our next person!
This next one is a friend calling out for help for another person. Here, just read it.
A little while ago, a guy I like came out as bisexual to me and he seemed super positive about it at the time. He seemed happier, free-er, and all around like a better person. I know he suffers from chronic depression and this was during a time he was free from that. Then, he began worrying what his girlfriend would think (as she's homophobic) and what his family would think (as they're religious). Suddenly, he was back in the closet, and constantly addressing that he's straight.
This friend told us this because they wanted some advice on how to help him. They want him to be happy again.
This is a hard topic and situation to give advice on. I couldn't give you too much advice, because I can't really figure out a way to fix this. I really don't have any idea.
The best I can really say is to be there for him. Be the distraction he needs. Listen to him. Comfort him. Be an amazing friend to him. Support him.
If you have any advice, please share it. It would help a lot.
