So I sorta came out to my dad last night... Basically I just said that I really liked this girl and that was sort of it. However, this doesn't really bring my whole sexuality into perspective. Also, he didn't really seem like he was ready to talk about it with me. Should I leave it here, or should I try to come out again in a way that explains more fully?
He changed the subject almost as soon as I said it. Also, no one in my family is extremely comfortable talking about LGBT+ things. They support it and all, but whenever I start going on a rant about gender roles or equality they just sort of wait for me to finish. I get the feeling that he wouldn't be comfortable talking to me about it.
Hey I came out to my mom actually today over text message maybe if your scared of what he's gonna say just come out to him over Texting or something like that way you can put it all in perspective And give him time to adjust to the fact you're part of LGBT I'm sure he won't mind because your still the same person That your dad loves and being part of LGBT shouldn't change that! Good luck
Ok that sounds like a good idea. I was already planning on coming out over text to a few of my friends. Thanks for the advice! And congrats on coming out to your mom! I hope it went well (*hug*)
Your welcome I'm glad I'm able to help I came out to my best friend over text also I like typing because then everything you feel you can put it into perspective that you just can't think of when talking Coming out while talking would get you all balled up but I found the texting the way to go cuz your not so anxious you put everything into perspective good luck I hope all goes well with you ---------- Post added 1st Mar 2016 at 07:39 PM ---------- Also coming out to my mom went really well surprisingly thanks
