    So I'm on the verge of finally coming out to my grandma. I have the email all set to go. I just have to find the nerve to send it. And it might as well be now. Waiting for some other time won't change her reaction. Whatever that will be. So I'm gonna do it. After I stare anxiously at the send button for who knows how much longer. :icon_eek:

    (*hug*) As hard as it is, you are doing the right thing. You are right, she is going to react the way she will. I hope that she is supportive. Just be prepared either way and you should be okay.

    And it's sent. I don't know what my emotions are doing right now. But I'm going to hope for the best, expect a little less, and be prepared for the worst. I won't know what I'll get until tomorrow. Thank you all for your support. I really appreciate it :slight_smile:

    I just heard back from her a little while ago. She took it very well. I feel so much better and relieved. And also over emotional right now. I'm gonna go cry and then eat massive amounts of food.
