tune

Thought my dad was gonna have a heart attack and send me to the family priest

Well I'm glad it all worked out!

That's a little much but some people do that. that's really good that that didn't happen.

Yeah my dad is a little extra in every sense of the world but still a good guy

well, there are worse things to have in family members.

yeah there really are.

ya like LGBTQ+phobic family members and you have to hide in your closet alone and scared.

I'm so glad it worked out for you!

I haven't told them and I probably won't for a long time

Sometimes you just have to drop the bomb, like how I did with my parents, it's really scary at first but in the end you feel courageous, no matter what their reaction. Not to mention it could turn out to be a really funny story in the future.

Yeah but not everyone has the luxury of being able to laugh about it later. Personally I don't know what would happen to me so I'm just not gonna do anything until I'm able to be independent.

I did drop the bomb. And yes, not everyone has the luxury of being able to laugh about it later…

ya exactly midnight

I didn't say everyone could laugh about it. When I came out to my real dad it was horrible, but that was years ago and it doesn't hurt anymore. Now I laugh about the situation because I don't care what he thinks, or what anyone thinks. It's not their business to judge me or have a say in my life.

You do you.

that's good its all good now at least

I guess I just can't laugh about disappointing my family, losing friends, and getting beat up.

ya your right I'm telling a few of my friends next period

Hey guys been a while since I commented on here but I just came out to my parents about being bi and my girlfriend (I'm a girl) and they actually are excited for me and want to meet her!!!! I'm so happy my step mom has always seemed okay but I was terrified of my dad he's not overjoyed I'm dating but he's happy I told him.

Oh my god, I’m so happy for you!!!

I hope it goes well. Good luck!

I think it will

I hope so as well!

I'll report back once I do it

Sounds good!

That's not what I said…?
