I’ve been dating my bf for about a year. I’m ftm and we were discussing how to deal with his family in the future since they are homophobic. He’s taking some time to decide how to approach things ( coming out vs remaining closeted forever) what do I do?

He’s a total sweetie and feels conflicted about his identity as a bisexual man and his connection to his family. I don’t want to put him in a position in which he “chooses” so I let him know that when it comes to major life events I will exist as a man and if our relationship progresses he’ll have to find a way to address that wether it’s coming out or just setting boundaries with those who are weird about it.

Great news yall, he wants to be open about his identity and that includes supporting me as a trans man even when it comes to his conservative family 🎉🎉🎉🎉

I’m giving him space to decide whether he wants to operate in the world as a closeted man with me as his friend or as someone who will support and defend me as their boyfriend. Life goes on and I’ll be okay either way but I feel like I’m putting him in a shit position but at the same time I deserve to be out and proud and I know that’s the life he’s want for me too. I guess I just wanna hear what other people who have experienced this think
