Coming out

I am not Filipino, but my boyfriend is. I need a few suggestions on how he should come out to his family. He is nervous about this, but I know that he is going to have to eventually do it. Anyone have any suggestions for me.

There is no reason to be nervous about if there really is nothing wrong with the relationship. You also did not specify why your boyfriend would be intimidated telling his family.

Filipino families welcome foreign relationships, and we will be proud if other cultures will learn to love ours.

Love should conquer all. :)
