    I would accept the fact that he's gay. But i just wouldn't accept him as a friend anymore. I mean, look at all the questions posted on this site asked by gay guys who are crushing on their straight best friend. I wouldn't want something like that happen to me. It would be really awkward. It's just...i can't even imagine the shame.

      Come on now. All gay guys don't hit on their straight friends. The chance of that is one in hundred.
      And even if he does fall for you, just take it as a compliment and move on. Reject him respectfully. But why would you lose a friend over it?

          No. But my brother was. Was because he committed suicide because his friends abandoned him after he came out. He was bullied constantly at school and not one of his ex friends stood up for him.
          See, it's probably just shameful or awkward for you to be around a gay guy. But that guy is a human too. A friend. Being gay doesn't define him or change his friendship towards you.

          You don't deserve having friends. People like you make me sick, seriously.

            That's a bit harsh. Some people just aren't ready for that. Crusades didn't say anything out of line, he just gave his honest opinion. Maybe he will change his mind someday, but talk like that is the last thing that will make that happen.

              It's not harsh. If someone is being a bigot, they need to be called out on it.

                In the only place in the world where people can be their true self in front thousands of other people? Many guys feel the same way as him so I think it's worth knowing. Many of them feel that way simply because they've never had a gay friend before.

              Maybe you are right, maybe he is just struggling with his own homosexual feelings. But people talking like that just make me angry.
