Turns out my bf of 6 years is homophobic

I’m pretty sure he’s not AFRAID of gay people. Literally no one is AFRAID of a gay person. Homophobia is an ignorant/ misused terminology. Anywho, I don’t like Republicans. My GF is a leaning-Republican. She knows I don’t like Republicans. But she also knows I’m not in the relationship with or for Republicans. Are you in the relationship with him for the LGBTQ+? Let’s say you assumed he liked dogs and then realize he can’t stand those canines, does that mean he doesn’t love you? Not expecting you to like my phrasing … but I know you get the point. A lot of people still love their racists white parents, yet date black people. I’m taking about my GF (white) I’m black. Her dad hates my guts and he is 300% MAGA. Yes we all know where we all stand, yet we fcuk like rabbits and love each other. She still does thanksgiving with racist pro-bad-cop MAGA Dad.

There is no mutual exclusivity in loving someone and agreeing with ALL their choices and state of mind on every SINGLE issue. All that matters is they LOVE YOU!
