Earlier today I came out to my mom...I told her I was bi...Her reaction was, "Oh I know, I've known for a few years now." How has she known for a few years when me, myself has only know for a few weeks...?
I've heard parents sometimes are granted magical psychic powers when they have kids. o: Or they just spend a lot of time thinking about their kids, I don't know. :I
Hey KitAshrin Congratulations on coming out to your Mum, that's great and honestly, don't you think that's quite a good reaction to get? Parents sometimes seem to sense that kind of stuff... I wouldn't so much see it as she knew, but maybe she sort of got a vibe or something? Idk... But that's parents... They seem to have like a sixth sense in regards to their kids... When I came out to my Mum she told me as well that she sorta figured, she just didn't want to believe it until I said it
I'm like way in the closet, haven't told a soul I'm gay, but I know that my Mom already knows. I can just tell by the way she's talked about gay people to me growing up. She's knows and she's cool with it. Your coming out kind of reminded of that (made me chuckle). That doesn't make it any less terrifying. Coming out is like a roller coaster of feelings and you mostly end up realizing the person already had some idea of it in the first place and you wonder way you were so scared. I haven't even done it and I can tell from stuff I've read or videos I've watched it's like that. Comforting I suppose. Anyways.......... CONGRATS and good luck with the rest of your coming out
one of my friends caught the whole "not straight" vibe from me based on how I acted, probably way before I knew
Congrats on coming out my friend! Best of luck coming out to the rest of your family. (As for the her already knowing thing: I dunno, I feel like my mom might know too (and I haven't directly talked to her about it), it does happen sometimes. I'm glad that you seem to have her support! (*hug*))
First off, congrats on coming out! I haven't told my mom either. I think she knows already but doesn't really wanna say anything until I tell her. Of course like most people have said already, that doesn't make it any easier to do it. Interestingly enough, almost everyone I've told said they already knew. The only person that had no idea actually told me she was bi. So that was kinda an interesting reaction.
