Odilia Posted September 29, 2014 Share Posted September 29, 2014 This is the deal: two months ago a good (gay) friend started to date again, after being single for almost a year, and being in a really bad relationship for over a year, with many trust issues. I'm really happy my friend found this new guy, and he seems like a really nice guy. However. Yesterday I was being bored on the internet, so I googled this guy's name. Then I found his Twitter. After reading it, I googled his Twitter nick, out of curiousity. I found his Twitter upates very amusing so I wondered if this guy had a blog or something. My first hit was a site for free webcam watching and broadcasting. His last broadcast: last Friday. He is on this site since 2008. I know for sure my friend wouldn't approve of this, and would consider this (showing yourself naked in front of a webcam, getting off and looking at other people) cheating. What am I to do? Should I do nothing? Should I hint something to my friend or even tell him? Should I confront his boyfriend in some way? All in all a classic gay drama. I know what the Church teaches about being gay, or homosexual acts. That is NOT the point of my question. This is a very dear friend, and I don't want him to be hurt by someone. I want to do the right thing, or at least, the best I can do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CatherineM Posted September 29, 2014 Share Posted September 29, 2014 He'll get hurt worse if he ends up on video with this guy. Tell him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blazeingstar Posted September 29, 2014 Share Posted September 29, 2014 "I was board" By my username you should be able to tell that I'm not the world's best speller. What's your issue with me? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhuturePriest Posted September 29, 2014 Share Posted September 29, 2014 By my username you should be able to tell that I'm not the world's best speller. What's your issue with me? I want to take this moment to say I do not hate you or loathe you, and 99% of the time I enjoy your posts. That's a months-long delayed response to a post you made saying I hated you, but I couldn't respond to it at the time because I was in exile.

I want to do the right thing, or at least, the best I can do. Woman up and tell him about the webcam. Don't be vague and talk about his Twitter or something, because from what you say you can't find out about the webcam from his Twitter feed. If you love him, tell him the truth. Sheltering him from the truth in the name of not hurting his feelings is uncharitable. If this situation were swapped, you would be offended and angry if he didn't tell you, so do the right thing and just tell him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blazeingstar Posted September 29, 2014 Share Posted September 29, 2014 (edited) I want to take this moment to say I do not hate you or loathe you, and 99% of the time I enjoy your posts. That's a months-long delayed response to a post you made saying I hated you, but I couldn't respond to it at the time because I was in exile. Thanks FP, don't hate you either. Hope you're able to find a place to go to Uni for a reasonable amount of money. Edited September 29, 2014 by blazeingstar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, there's actually a bit of a surprise for y'all I'll perhaps announce soon, but until then I'll just remain uncharacteristically quiet and secretive about it. :P I always announce things, so I'm trying not announcing something for a change until after it happens.

PhuturePriest Posted September 29, 2014 Share Posted September 29, 2014 Your small tv spot landed you a job at church militant tv? That would be amazing. However, amazingly enough, what I'm doing does have a direct connection with one of the guys from ChurchMilitant.TV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
