Well I came out to my parents... The second time... It hurt a lot. Lots of tears, burning eyes, and weird talk, but my parents came out of it with this: "Whatever happens, happens. Don't seek it out, but let it come to you. Whoever you end up with, we will deal with it." MY dad still seems to think that its a phase, and I just need to hang around girls more, and I know my mom still wouldn't prefer me to date a male, but I think she would be more okay with it, and she said she would deal with it herself, and its not my problem to worry about. If you are curious to know why I had to come out twice... Click the link... http://emptyclosets.com/forum/coming-out-advice/129284-need-some-serious-advice.html
Hello arkangel, I'm glad to hear that it went somewhat well. It sounds like it's going to be a continuing process of acceptance on your parents part. Keep that in mind, and be prepared to have it move along at a slow pace over a period of time. Good for you for having the courage to come out to them twice. Keep your yourself strong, and keep moving ahead, one leg of the journey at a time. (*hug*)
Heheh, if im lucky enough to get one... Not the best lookin guy around but hey, only so many people can be like that. Thanks to all the support I have gopten here on this forum... It kills me every time i see people be put down and hurt for being lgbtq, being discriminated against, bullied, killed. Then they say gay propoganda when we try to get equal rights? Pisses me off... Anyway, thanks for everything. I came here suicidal, and i am remaining as a stronger person.
I agree! Let the boyfriend speak for you and let your dad know that it's not a phase :lol:. Congrats buddy for coming out! (!)
