Today, I went to my friend's house to give him some moral support as he came out of the closet to his family. I left with a black eye. FML

Same thing different taste
Today, I was at the gym when I saw one of my friends at the water fountain. I went over and gave him a man ass slap while he was drinking. It wasn't my friend. I now have a black eye. FML
Today, I got a black eye while trying to break up a fight caused by some complete bastard making a "yo momma" joke at the funeral of my best friend's mother. FML
Today, someone very close to me came out of the closet. Normally I would fully support them, had we not just gotten married. FML
Looksmaxxing
Today, I accidentally gave myself a black eye. I would laugh about it if my friends didn't start suspecting that my husband is abusing me, and won't listen when I try to explain what really happened. FML
Today, at a party, I watched the guy I've liked for AGES come out of a bedroom with one of my gay male friends. They were in there for a while. FML
Living his best life
Today, my husband, who I love more than anything, announced that he was gay, couldn't live a lie anymore, and moved out of the house. I'm utterly devastated, and when I tried to cry to my friends, they said I should celebrate his courage and stop being selfish, then ran off to party with him. FML
What the frick?
Today, I was shopping with my girlfriend, when I saw my best friend. I jokingly did a double-take and said I didn't recognize him with his clothes on. We laughed, talked a bit, then went our separate ways. My girlfriend later dumped me, claiming I'm blatantly gay and cheating on her. FML
Today, I came out of the closet, after years of fear and shame, thanks to my mom making me to go to a church full of fundies my whole life. In the end, I was in tears. All I got was a frown and a "So? Want a medal or something?" FML
The punch from beyond the grave
Today, my brother‘s will read that everything would go to our other brother, so long as he punched me for having an affair with my his wife. So now I have a black eye. I’m gay, but I've never told my family. I didn't have an affair with his wife. FML
Identity politics
Today, I came out as a lesbian to my friends. They were supportive, save for my one friend, who accused me of copying her by also being a lesbian. FML

It's a sad day when you get a black eye for being a decent human being.

Some people just don't want to hear that their son sucks dick and takes it up the ass. Go figure.

It was good of you OP, but interceding in other's family drama never works well.

Maybe they will show up later to give you some moral support for your eye, and also apologize.

If he just came out of the closet, it's not the eye you should be worried about...

You're saying even if their close friends, OP should still fear him because he's attracted to males?

I see you say friend, but not best friend. My guess is that you might have thought you two were closer than you are and overstepped some boundaries. Unless his family assumed you were his boyfriend and flipped out on you. Either way, that sucks, but good on you for trying to be supportive.

Never do that

This needs a follow up. Did you two into a fight? Did his family flip out, taking out their anger on you? Did you trip and fall on your way out after a peaceful talk of love and acceptence with your friend's family? The world may never know.

Hey, you were a really good friend for doing that.. If it was him, just try to continue the support and he'll understand where you're coming from. If its his family just do the same but stay away from those jerks.
