We love him just the way he is and he was depressed since high school and yet when we talked with him, he was unable to tell us for fear of us rejecting him and his sexuality. Now he has graduated from college and works full time and has his own apartment. I hope this info has helped you. Don't beat yourself up. You are trying your best and that is all you can do. Take care.

You're right about looking into the past and not getting on with the future. As for my being gay - yes I am out to my family and friends - and came out when I was about 19-20 (I'm 32 now).
