Topic	Non straight CEppl: How is your view on coming out for your partner?
FF_Redux 12/06/21 6:00:34 PM #15:	philsov posted... Depends. I don't want to be a dirty secret. I'd like to go OUT on dates and have shared experiences together. I'd like to bring him over to hang out with my family/friends and all their events. If he's scared to even go into a gay bar for fear of being outed, that's too much for me. If he's a little averse to PDA, I could roll with that. I personally like hand on the thigh or knees touching while sitting. Or a kiss goodnight. I don't want him looking over his shoulder while we're outside of either of our private homes. If he's not out to his family? I could respect that, but I'm out with mine and he's invited over for christmas and shit. I get that absolutely. I think that if my partner shows some signs of progress it's good, or has goals and wants to progress to coming out. I don't think I could deal with being permanently a secret. My bf is taking steps, even if it's very slow. Just a month ago he told some friends about me. I've met his best friend several times etc. I've yet to meet his kids. (who are around my age). I'm not a total secret to them, they know me by name and being a friend at this point. --- https://imgur.com/hRsG4 https://i.imgtc.com/zZQ38Hb.jpg https://imgur.com/Z4cir https://imgur.com/qEyGS https://imgur.com/37KDT <cite>FF_Redux posted [p:960681008] in Non straig...
