[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, this happened with my friend's sister. She came out to her entire family when she was in her early 20s. They were surprised, but very supportive. They did not question her and even met her girlfriend. It didn't last long before she realized that she is not gay. She has been very happily married for years and they have a 10 year old kid.

I think you need to move forward assuming that she is gay. Treat her relationships just as you would a straight relationship. This will help her figure out whether it seems right to her. If she does not have your support and starts to feel uncomfortable with her lifestyle, she will think it's because of you. But if you are supportive, and she still feels uncomfortable bringing her partner around, she might realize that it's just not the right lifestyle for her. OR she will realize that it is right for her and will be forever grateful that you were so amazing about it.

This is very insightful and good advice.[/quote]
