How would you react?

It would be a shock! But I don't think it should reflect on your friendship..I have a few friends that are in the same situation...and it doesn't matter to me as long as they don't hit on me...that would not be the type of lifestyle I would chose...so don't push it on me!

i think she's really a lesbian.. you should talk to her personally

Like you, I may be taken aback. However, I will take it with stride. I just feel it is not the persons's fault and if moral support is needed, I may provide the support needed. I feel that such people should also be treated with respect.

Hi. celticeagle. This would have surprised me too. Life can be so surprising at times! The people that we never would have thought would do the impossible, has. Life is truly a mysterious. It can be hard to look at someone in another whole way. I am glad that you both have connected as well. At least you are still friends with her till this very day. I know a girl that attended high school with me. I recognized seeing her on Facebook and she has her hair cut. Her photos of her, shows that she works at a night club. She has on this outfit that looks really freakish. It seems to me that she is a dancer of some sort. I saw many other girls that were dressed like this too. I would never think that she would be doing a job like this. But hey, that is life. Many people are living their lives differently than what we would have imagined them to.

People and things certainly do change..wow...I bet that is a shock. I'm not sure how I would react. I know you are surprised, but I guess if she's happy..

well, things change. we cannot expect to see it the way we see it after many years. i think i would be taken aback but we'll see if the friendship will still work. it would be very uneasy a situation for me, to be frank.

Wow, that sure would be surprising! I'm not sure what my reaction would be.. courtesy and kindness of course, but I'm sure I'd be a little taken aback and it would take a little getting used to. Some of the very nicest people I know are gay however..

Hmm Well I guess some people try to hide it for a long time or maybe they just get fed up with it? Some people believe it is a birth defect, I don't know if that is true or not, I tend to believe that but with this example it's hard to understand. It seems shes waited quite a bit before having a relationship with another woman, or maybe it's just that she's waited so long before having an open relationship with another woman. I bet it was very awkward to comment on the picture to find out the person was actually a female, are you sure she wasn't yanking your chain?

I would be nice to her but i sure don't believe in relationships like that.

thats pretty cool. I wouldnt mind. i think lots of people dont realize they are gay for yrs. i tried to be once as so many men had hurt me and i had a really wonderful gay friend, but alas it didnt work. i hope you will realize shes still the same good friend.

That is pretty interesting. If it was me, I might get shocked too. Maybe unknown to others, she's already been trying to find out about who she really is in the past and has already been going through a phase. I would have a different perspectiveof them but I'll be happy that they're already out and being happy as to who they really are. Some of my former classmates and friends are quite the opposite. They were solid tomboys and now that we're grown up, they're already so feminine.

wow i think that thats alright for her so long as she is happy
