...is not close with his family, because they are homophobic and they are not comfortable with him being gay. Would you consider being in a relationship with him knowing that you will not get to meet his family?
 
Yes because he would probably need support for someone, especially if he used to be close with his family at one point. I never quite understood how mean some family can be regarding the issue, just never made sense to me.
 
Yes, it's not his fault that his family doesn't accept him. And I don't see why anyone should hold that against someone.
 
Of course I would- somebody in that situation needs all the love and support they can get. To be honest I'd rather not have to meet someone's family if they're genuinely bad than to have to meet someone's family who will pry into our lives and make it living hell. Sort of like my mom's family has done with my dad lol

I crawl into bed with him, not his family.

It wouldn't be a positive and would probably be a dealbreaker at some point.
 
absolutely. but we're a package deal. I wouldn't be comfortable if he maintained a relationship with them while leaving me out in respect of their delicate sensibilities.

But if he had nothing to do with them because they are assholes, then I'm not sure why I would want to meet them anyway.
 
Of course i would, it wouldn't matter to me that he had no relationship with his family.
Infact i'd be relieved, i hate the whole 'meeting the family scenario'.
 
I amend my last post. I misread the original post. I would date someone that had no contact with his abusive family. If they are abusive, I don't need them in my life.
 
The family isn't abusive, just not yet comfortable with him being gay. And he is not close with them but still sees them every now and then.
 
Yes because the one I'm into is him and not his family, even if you realise you want something serious with him it'd be nice to meet his family but if it's not possible I wouldn't bother, plus is just a date, right?
 
i wouldnt really care about your family, as long as youre a decent guy. sadly, fucked up families often spawn fucked up people, so it would be a red flag for me... i know its not fair, because nobody chooses to have homophobic parents, but im being honest. but if i would see that youre not fucked up yourself after spending some time with you, the family wouldnt really matter to me.

i would, however, want you to at least tell them about me, even if im not going to meet them. they need to know i exist.
 
If they're estranged from hm because they know he's gay, he's not in the closet. That I have no problem with.

If he's hiding himself and me because he's afraid of them, that I'd have a problem with.
 
YES! It is not his fault his family is a bunch of homphobes! The guy is going through enough with his family; don't make matters worst for him by denying him love, relationships, and sex.
 
Sure. That's nothing to hold against him, plus he probably could use some love, and might even be more loving and appreciative in return. If he's good enough for me he'd be quickly accepted into my family, too.
 
This might sound silly or even offensive to someone, but I have actually thought about this and I actually see it as an advantage; people usually hate having to deal with overbearing in-laws, and grandparents and parents can always like someone isn't good enough for their baby. Well, if their family disowns them, it's just you and him. You have the freedom to make a life together without having to worry about anyone giving you a hard time.

So, yes I would love to be in a relationship with someone who wasn't close to family. lol
