I would tell my mom that I was disappointed but it's not my place to meddle in her marriage.  I would tell dad to talk to mom about how he feels.  I would also tell him to follow his instincts, after all, he should know her better than anyone else.

If he was truly saved, and is falling into the temptations of Satan, he will turn away from it (one day) and go back to following Jesus. \n\nIf he was never saved, then it will be harder for him to resist these temptations.\n\nSatan knows that God hates homosexuality, and he is using this to either spite God, or to keep this man from ever receiving the Blessing of true salvation. \n\nWhen you speak to his mother, pray with her--everytime, as often as she comes to you. Tell her to love him, no matter what. Tell her that no matter how mad her son may get that it is her duty to quote scripture to him about homosexuality. Tell her not to shun his partner, but to love him as she does any other person in Christ. \n\nThat doesn't mean that she should accept them behaving like lovers at her house or in her presence. She needs to set ground rules and say, "You may both come here, but you may not act unnaturally in my presence. And, as your mother, I would ask that you respect me enough to NOT act this way when I am in your presence, at your home." \n\nHer son will reject her and Christ, as long as he feels that he is being attacked. She must find a way to love him, unconditionally, just as God loves all of us. \n\nShe must also share this with as many true Christians as she can, so that they can pray for her and her son, as well as his lover(s).\n\nI would also like to add that she needs to let her son know that not only is he sinning against God, but against himself, and the men that he lays with.

i had the same thing with my bezzie a few years ago, and for some reason out of our little gang he felt he couldn't tell me...he told everyone else.  don't ask him, just be a friend and make him feel comfortable in himself be open so he feels he can talk to u about it if he needs it.  He didn't tell me coz he thought i'd hate him and dissaprove!\n\nI love him, he's a mate!\n\nIt doesn't really matter whether he's straight or gay aslong as he's in your life!\n\ngive him time  \n\nxxx

Well, I always assume people are gay until proved otherwise...\n\nSo, I would say, be gentle, let him set the speed, and use lots of lube...\n\nOh, and don't forget the condom.

It's not the woman's fault, the man was always gay and knew it, he just wasn't ready to come out the closet or ready to admit to everyone that he was into men. Nothing wrong with realizing who your are, but in these type of situations someone always gets hurt.

He dont even know who he is himself yet, and he wants to educate people on how to live. Classic. \n\nWould be better off asking my teenage son, who isnt gay, because at least he knows the basics of relationships. Man and woman.

My son came out to me when he was 17.....I had known he was gay long before that though, probably even before he did.  Your parents will love you regardless.  Even my parents, who used to say things like "All gays should be shot", have now changed their views radically and say "to each their own".  Don't be afraid, parents just want you to be happy, no matter what.

Tell him you are straight.

a closet straight?  he told you he is bi but more gay than straight.  what's the problem?  you want every person in the world to know he is bisexual in the hopes that no one will sleep with him except you...you sound very immature and jealous/obsessive.

kind of a dumb question. how would you know they're gay? would someone say, "help, i've fallen and i'm gay!"\n\nunless you just pushed them over because you just found out they were gay, then I guess you would not help them and they'd get up themselves. hopefully, the "gay" would punch your lights out then.

Why did your Mom tell you this? Is he telling her these things,and if so,why? I would tell him to lay off or you will slap a slander suit on him for telling others, lies about you.

Well, I'm not against it but my parents are.  When my brother finally came out of the closet, that did nothing to change their minds.  They were furious and my father told him he was sick in the head.  He was 19 at the time and had to move out of our home because my parents were being really horrible to him.  My Mom even 'disowned' him as a son at the time.  \n\nThey lost touch with him for a good 10 years.  My sister and I still kept in touch with him though.  It wasn't until recently that they are back in touch with him.  I guess they have somewhat accepted that he is gay but it is not discussed when they are around.  It still hurts him to this day and them reacting the way they did has messed him up a bit.  He knows he has the support of both my sister and I but sometimes I feel really bad for him not having the support of my parents.  Even though we are all adults now, it makes it no less hard to not have the approval of one's parents.  It's unfortunate because it's not like getting angry at your child and disowning them is going to make them any less gay.

your son shouldn't be accepting because homosexuality is WRONG. i say u call off the engagement. maybe you can continue to date the guy but what the F. is the world coming to when we feel as though we are not correct in shunning things that are unnatural, blasphemous, and disgusting!!

Feel the situation out.  Do you know how he feels about gay people?  In the right time and place you will be able to tell him you are and how you have felt.  If he is not gay then you can't change him, don't try it won't work and do'nt push it.  Many straight people have gay friends.
