Advice from Amy Dickinson.
My college best friend is struggling with infertility and is near the end of the road with multiple rounds of unsuccessful IVF.
I truly want to honor her feelings and the hardship she has faced, but the truth is that my kids are the most central and important thing in my life right now. She might respond that this is simply too painful for her. Ask her to draw the parameters about what she is able to discuss with you; if she insists that she cannot tolerate any mention of your children, it means that you can only discuss the central aspect of her life – and not yours. You can no longer be intimate friends, which is another casualty of her fertility struggle.A couple of years ago I overheard my sister ask one of her teen grandsons if he had found a girlfriend yet.
I lack the words to describe to her the fear of rejection by their families and friends that many young LGBT+ people go through while working up the courage to come out to their families.
