You should have close friends ofc but one secret to many friendships is not opening up fully to others all the time. its okay to just enjoy a single thing with some people. That makes social circles a lot less elaborate and isolating.

Because recently my friends who is homophobics keep calling me he/him

#

So I advise them to use she/her

#

They don’t want to

#

Its common to come out

#

From what I gathered so far its best to only come out to your close circles and do it gradually bigger. A huge splash of new identity can isolate you becvause - well people assumed to be associated with a different version of you.

Im sorry

#

I don’t want to stay as a man forever

Oh I got that

#

I am not arguing for that

Lgbtq is normal

#

Trans woman is normal

I am sure that legal situations have been arranged for that but you cant make everyone arround you tolerant. You dont have to hang arround bigots but a coming out is a drastic change for most people and it takes time till things settle to normal.

They are homophobics thats why

#

I want to find a friend that is lgbtq friendly

As in if you go runnig with someone is coming out to them even relevant or is it a source of potetntial conflict? People dont say their political opinions in the first conversation with a stranger for the same reasons.

If you want to find friends on here, I think its best if you share your interests

I can talk for ages about stuff with friends without ever getting personal

Enough is enough

#

I already experienced it with 5 friends

I dont think you are very open and accepting yourself with a stance like this. Dont be bitter. You dont get to choose your friends, life does.

#

I just don’t want a homophobics one

#

There’s no point of arguing Im here to find friends not arguments
