Well, at least you have one friend living near you! It must be challenging to live in such a conservative state, but El Paso seems to have a thriving LGBTQ community.

Several of my dad's relatives live there, and one elderly lady relative in her 80s is married to a young gay man. They seem to make it work well, in fact, we kids were jealous.

She had a young, hot, green-eyed guy who remodeled and interior decorated her entire house, so it now looks like it belongs in a magazine, is a top chef, a tech nerd who does all her media stuff, and an art photographer who gives her amazing wall art, including many photos of her. They travel together and do stuff, but she also lets him keep young male friends in the guest bedroom at times.

My parents, being liberal United Methodists, made no comment and accepted them like they do LGBTQ relatives and anyone else.
