<human>: This is a throwaway account since she knows my reddit username. So I was talking to her the other day about wedding stuff. We've been dating a while and I have yet to pop the question (soon hopefully), and she asked me who my groomsmen would be. I told her and then she started talking about who her bridesmaids would be. Here's the thing. Since high school, her best friend has always been a gay man. I have no problem with this guy. I've met him. He's unbelievably nice and someone I would definitely talk to on a day to day basis as a friend. However, I realize that our wedding day is extremely special (to both of us) and I know that I have very mixed feelings about her saying she wants this guy to be her "maid of honor". First of all, I want a traditional wedding and this is wayyyy out of the box from what I know. Also, my family aren't like me and really aren't very tolerant of the homosexual community. They're from the south...like old-timey south sooooo you get the picture there. I want this day to be special for both of us and I don't want to break her heart by telling her that deep down I would much rather have this guy as one of my groomsmen, if anything, than her "maid" of honor...it just doesn't make sense to me and I really don't think I like the idea of it. Can anybody help me here? Am I just being foolish?

Can you provide a brief overview of the text?
<bot>: GF mentioned she wants her gay best friend who's a guy to be her "maid" of honor when we get married. Idk how I feel about it.
