Okay so recently my boyfriend has been outed to his parents.

His dad just plain asked him and his mother was told by his father after seeing a love bite on his neck.

MOST AWESOMEST PEOPLES EVERR!!

I think i've mentioned before but his dad
walked into his room and asked if i was his boyfriend
he was simply told yes a replied
"I knew he was" and he even has a few jokes with him

now this weekend when i went over
his mammy came for a visit
she's so funny and amazing
and when she was downstairs she saw a molly on my boyfriends neck
she asks who and he immediately tries to change the subject
then his dad says 'you may aswell tell her'
he just avoids them (doesn't like pressure)
then on Wednesday he saw his mam again (this time alone)
and she asks him why didnt she tell him
he's like 'wtf' and it all comes out
she says she always thought he was madly in love with his best friend (girl)
but other than that she was fine

like...nothing happened

how all families should be
they find out like they would if it was a girlfriend...

that's it

move on

no biggy

per-feck

Just imagine if all parents were like this
maybe one day they will be :')

I think it's a wish of any LGBT member (and even friends of the gay community members) that their families will react this way. Hopefully as we push for more rights and educate people, it'll be like this. Maybe in the next 50 years at least? We can hope...

YAY! His parents sound like my mum was hehe. I cried when I told her cause I was nervous, she just called me a daft bastard n made me a cuppa.
Open minded parents rule!

This is up there with the reaction someone on here posted some time ago. "I'm gay." "Would you like more potatoes?"

his family sounds awesome!!!

God I wished everything had been that simple here, my mother is kinda immature about it. Should have seen her as we watched Milk, her and her stupid little jokes with my brother. I don't even know what my dad thinks especially since how he found out is one of the worst ways possible, he saw things on my browser, he didnt say a word, just finished what he was doing and left the room. Good thing he doesn't live here. Anyhow, thats wonderful, he must have young parents. As previously mentioned hopefully by 2080 all parents will be like that.

I envy you for having a boyfriend. I need one, someone I truly can connect with. I know that if I find someone like that, there will be no stopping me from coming out to the rest of my family.

I agree, more parents need to be understanding. mine needed time, but they did not react negatively.
