What do I do if I think that someone close to me may be gay? How do I approach this with them without hurting their feelings? She is 27, never had a boyfriend, have a close friend who is female and who she does a lot of things with, has no other friends besides this person, she lives at home with parents, and appears to be somewhat depressed. I want her to be able to talk to me about it but would hate to ask and risk not having it be true. Any suggestions?

It probably will do no good to talk about her possible homosexuality to her unless she brings up the topic first. You might not know how comfortable she is on this personal subject.

If your friend is into the opposite sex you should except her as she is as your friend. Don't worrie about it if she is gay. Don't confront her, in time when she is comfortable and only if she IS gay, she will tell you. If she really is that close to you that is. Well good luck with that.

if she is gay, it takes time to become comfortable with it, i know by personal experiences. as her friend, i would advise you listen out for any hints she may drop you about this subject. but best not to confront her, she will talk about it when she is ready. otherwise just continue to be a good friend and stick by her no matter what, do what it takes to make her laugh when she feelin down.

this person is my sister and i feel that she may be struggling with this but doesnt know what reaction she will get or maybe she's not even sure herself. i just wish she could open up to me about what is going on in her life. she seems depressed and struggles with emotional eating. i have tried to reach out and talk to her but its hard because she doesn't like to talk about personal stuff. i feel that i could really help her because of my own struggles with depression and eating issues i just dont know how to approach it.

I think you need to put the oxygen mask on yourself before you can help her
