How do I support my queer Muslim friend
I hope this alright for me to post in here, but I am currently about to enter my final year of uni and have become good mates with a guy who came out to me as gay last year.
He is from a Muslim family and is absolutely terrified of what his sexuality could mean for him and his family.
He’s opened up to me about being scared of uni being the last year he has to actually be himself before he has to go back to living a lie. I am well aware that he is really stuck between a rock and a hard place, but I have no idea what I can say to make this better.
I have made it known that my door is always open to him, even at short notice, but I don’t know what else I can say or do to help. Any thoughts would be really appreciated.
Well, he’s an adult, can’t he move or something? Like, no one forces him to be around them if it puts him in too much stress.
