Alright, so I'm in a bit of a situation right now. I've been in a relationship with a wonderful guy for a little over a year now. Being together has improved my quality of life in many ways and I sincerely believe there is a chance we could be together for many years if not life. Now, here's where the issues begin.
My boyfriend has been living with his grandma to stay away from his abusive mother. (Yes, I have met her.) Recently, the people at her facility have let it be known that he is not allowed to live with her on the premises due to it being for retired people only. So effectively, he will be homeless unless he goes back to live with his drug-addicted mother who verbally berates him on a regular basis. Her house also looks like something out of Ravenholm from Half Life 2.
I've recently moved back into my parents house after rooming with a friend for a couple years. They aren't particularly gay friendly, especially my dad. They do not know that I am homosexual and it is my goal to keep it that way for as long as I can. I've been preparing to move out into a one-bedroom place with my boyfriend within the next month or two, however, my dad sincerely thinks I need to stay with them and go for my bachelor's degree. While this is obviously the most logical choice, my hand is essentially being forced to take care of the one I love. My plans to move out have not been a secret, but I have disguised my directive as a need for independence. I dare not risk telling them the truth.
I know lots of people on here won't take me serious because I'm a faggot, but I really don't have anybody wise I can talk to about this sort of thing in my life. What would be some good ways to deal with this situation?

Why can't you move together with your boyfriend AND go for bachelor's degree?
Also what's the worst thing that can happen if you come out to your parents?

even though you are a faggot you're also a man. move in with your bf and get your degree. don't come out if you don't see an immediate net benefit
the biggest potential issue here is the 1-bedroom thing, it gets psychologically cramped

That's what I'm planning on doing. I just fear that eventually things are going to add up. I don't want to just end up being "the gay son" for my whole life.

You and the guy above you are right. I really do need to just do it once I am able. My plan is to get a warehouse job somewhere around Indianapolis and coast off the money until I can find something better.

Shits scary OP but you'll make it
Can you get other roommates to help bring the cost down? Is your bf helping pay for rent?
How long have you been together?
There is nothing wrong with making decisions that protect your loved ones but make sure he loves you in return and isn't using you or just keeps you around to fuck or some superficial reason. Because you are making a huge decision for him

Yes, he will be helping to pay the rent once he's able to get a job where we are. We have been together since September of last year. There isn't a doubt in my mind that it goes both ways.
