My friend is still in the closet and still lives at home.
A few weeks ago, I mailed him a card. It took a while for him to receive it. Today I found out that he finally got the card. Unfortunately, instead of being the first one to open it, his mom opened it instead. As soon as my friend got home from work, his mom asked him if he was gay based upon the contents of the card.
This is the first time my friend got upset with me. I apologized for making him uncomfortable but I wonder if there is anything else I can do. Classic case of good intentions gone bad, right?
In the meantime, I will leave my friend alone and hopefully, everything works out for him. Although, I’m trying my hardest to stop myself from reaching out to him.
Lastly, it wasn't my intent to let the proverbial, "cat out of the bag."
