    She offered to gave me a ride and when we were in the car she asked me if I had a boyfriend I said no then she asked me if I liked guys . I told her the truth and said I don't and I only like women since then she's been very accepting and said she's proud of me for knowing who I am and not living a lie . Things have gone well and I'm happy :slight_smile:

    It's nice to see your family has some members that support you!

    Oh gosh, I'm so happy for you! Is she lesbian/bi, or she straight? Either way, it's terrific that you can have someone in your family to talk to about this, someone who supports you so strongly. It'll be helpful when coming out to parents too. :slight_smile:
