I don't feel I have a duty to my family, if you do that's fine. If I left the country tomorrow and my duties went unfulfilled that wouldn't bother me in the slightest.
How about breaking up a friendship between unrelated people to start a doomed relationship?
Looking at it from such a negative point of view seems to advocate not starting any relationships at all for fear that they will inevitably sour.

Various branches of Christianity treat the issue of homosexuality differently, as with most things. You obviously support a more liberal view of the Bible, there are others who will say that homosexuality is a sin punishable by death. I'm not just talking about half-arsed out of context quotes either.
Personally, I couldn't care less what the Bible says, I might as well take my guidance from a copy of The Lord of the Rings (yes i know it has christian undertones :P).
To be brutally honest with you, I don't like homosexuality. I don't care much for heterosexual marriage either. Whatever relationship goes on between people behind closed doors is their own business and I'd much rather not know about any of it.
Why parade around making your sexual leanings a matter of public knowledge, like anyone really cares what you personally do or don't do. You're not doing anything new or revelationary, I would bet that if you brand your partners balls with hot iron there will be someone somewhere who likes to do the same.
Scrap the whole fking lot of it, public declaration of love especially. Noone cares but your friends, so tell them, not us.
If noone knows your marital status, sexual preference or favourite colour then they can't be prejudiced on those grounds. Unless you're clearly a camped up raving bender or a ladyboy with big hands.
