My best friend from grade school came out of the closet and is a lesbian. We still go camping, etc. Nothing has changed in our friendship except personal details of our sex life is kept to ourselves. She was married to a man and is so not interested in hearing about it and I am not at all interested in her preferences, I find them personally a turn-off. Anyone else? How did it affect your friendship?

I had a close Aunt, that was also my God Mother who was a lesbian. We were like best friends. We hunted, fished, camped, shoped and hung out together. She never went into details about her sex life, though would do her best to give me advise on the opposite sex.

She passed away two years ago from Cancer. She went to the Dr.'s and died three months later. The chemicals she worked with caused the cancer, which in turn spread through out her body.

I have never really felt turned off by a Gay or Lesbian person. I really feel thats because of my Aunt's and my relationship.

One of my closest friends is a lesbian, and several of my friends are bisexual. Of course, since I'm demisexual and pretty much only straight because I prefer romantic relationships with men, most of my friends are of a different sexuality. It doesn't bother me at all.

One of my best friends is a lesbian. The only way it affects our relationship is that we don't really talk about her sex life at all, unless she just needs someone to listen, because I'm not exactly informed enough to offer her good advice. Other than that our relationship is exactly the same.

I have a number of friends who are GLBT. It makes no difference in our relationship at all.

One of my daughter's best friends just came out a few months ago. I'm glad we raised her to be a tolerant, good friend to others. Their relationship has not changed, except for the fact that her friend is less available to my daughter, having now gotten into a very good love relationship with an other woman, which is what this young woman needed to be pleased and happy all along.

One of my friends is a gay guy, and we're pretty cool. Doesn't really come up outside of remembering which gender is appropriate when discussing his love life

After 10, when my dad came out, I was surrounded. But now that I'm in a hetero marriage, I'm not. I'm making more and more gay friends, now that life is starting to settle down a bit, but no besties. Tons of family friends though.

never had someone come out while we were friends. i've had many gay friends of both sexes...but they were gay when the friendships began. if one of my friends did come out...it would not affect a thing, i can't imagine.
