Is This Disgusting Or Is She Right

One of my friends started dating this guy a few weeks back. He's super sweet and was super nice to her and me. Well he recently called it quits with her. He said it took him time to realize but he like men. So what does she do. Well she finds out he's not ready to come out and has been black mailing him. Best been giving her money and gifts, anything to keep his secret. She was laughing to me about it saying how he's scared his family will actually put a hit on him if they find out. I told her that is a gross thing to do. She goes. Well he shouldn't have led me on. I said, you dated for like three weeks.... But I want your guys opinions on it.
