Re: Would you stop being friends with someone because of their political views?

[personal profile] toku_mei 2014-06-25 02:00 am (UTC)(link)
I'd like to say no. It's hard, but if we had the kind of friendship where we loved each other and respected one another, I think that means more than any political view.

That being said, the closer the issue in question affects you and who you are, it can be harder to stop being impersonal about it. I lost a friendship once because I was gay. We tried to make it work, and the more religious she got, the stronger our unspoken agreement not to discuss LGBT issue became. She knew I was gay, I don't think that made her care about me any less. But in the end, I needed someone who could support me. I didn't handle the "break up" very maturely myself, but I was frustrated that we were so close but I couldn't talk about my relationships. She was frustrated that I could sympathize with her religion.

I think if I weren't gay, but still supported LGBT rights, we probably could've made it work.
