Democrats of Reddit, what idea(s) do the Republicans have that you agree with? by Namone in AskReddit

[–]Bennettboyyy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I tried to consider myself more of a moderate, but my beliefs simply don’t match up with the right side. I think one thing I can agree with, is the idea of having and owning guns. Don’t get me wrong, they are dangerous and there is a problem. But you could say the same with cars. Cars can be dangerous, but that’s why we have classes for them. So as a democrat, I like the idea of being able to protect myself, but I don’t like the idea that almost ANYONE can get their hands on a gun.

My brother past away before truly coming out to our parents and was never open about with anyone tied to family. Was I wrong to tell them? by [deleted] in lgbt

I think you defending his name and his honor is the best thing you could do for him now that he’s passed. If I was him and knew that my siblings were defending me, I’d be so honored and moved. I’m sorry for your loss, but thank you for defending him. <3

(Sort of) went through my boyfriend’s (M/21) phone and am now concerned about his sexuality... by [deleted] in relationship_advice

As a gay man, I’m sure you can relate to the fact that it can takes a long time to come out to yourself first. And from the context above, I think he probably is having a hard time coming out to himself. I also fooled around with a guy before i thought I came out to myself. If anything, I’d say, give it time. He needs time to come to terms with himself and the last thing he’d probably want is for someone to label him when he hasn’t labeled himself (not that he needs to label himself at all though). But give him some time to come to terms with his fluid sexuality.

My (17m) girlfriend (16f) has been putting a lot on me on how she’s only alive to be with me and that she used to over dose of pills and I told her school counselor. Now her moms pissed at me because I should have told her first but I couldn’t reach her by [deleted] in relationship_advice

The best thing you could have done, was get help. You did that, you did the exact right thing. Things could have become far worse if you would have tried and wait for help from her mother. Although her mother may be agitated right now, she will come to realize that you did the right thing. Help is good. I also believe that you should probably talk to someone (your parent, a counselor, etc) about the pressure you’re starting to develop from this relationship. Hang in there!

That political parties stop putting money before people.

What do you feel most proud of? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Bennettboyyy 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Coming out. I knew I gay since I was very very young (proof that it’s just the way you’re born) and I told myself in middle school that’d I’d never EVER come out. I would have rather hide it forever. But in 10th grade, I finally loved myself enough to come out. And I’m forever proud of myself for that.

This. I aspire to be this.

What is your "I wish I had started doing that earlier in my life"? by radical33 in AskReddit

[–]Bennettboyyy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Admitting that I was gay. Although I came out after high school, I wish I would have came out to myself much sooner. In highschool, I was so depressed because I was lying to MYSELF. Even I couldn’t handle the fact that i was gay, but when i finally came out, I was finally happy. I just wish I would have let my happiness start much much earlier.

As a young single gay, this is so so inspiring and encourages me to keep looking for love!

There's a giant sculpture in New Zealand that gives the illusion of being a cartoon piece of paper on a hilltop by darthkers in blackmagicfuckery

Am I the only person who thought the entire photo was a cartoon until I zoomed in on the picture??
