    Ok. I am so nervous. I just wrote the letter that I am going to give my parents as I am leaving for school tomorrow. It explains to them how I am gay and who knows and how long I have known and how much I love them and that it is not their fault. Step two is going to come tomorrow when I give them the letter. I dont know whether to be happy or nervous.

    -hugs- I'd be a little of both if I were you. I'm sure everything will turn out okay! But congrats on getting that far, you're very brave.

    Good luck. I wrote a letter two weeks ago and still have not sent it to my parents. It is sitting with a stamp on it in my car. Giving to them is the hardest part. I need to just get it over with already but can't seem to force myself to do it. Good luck. If I have learned anything over the past couple years it is that things seem to always turn out better than you previously thought they would. Guess I should take my own advice huh?

    We all run at our own pace. I am going fast for the sake of just getting it over with. i am tired of saying "Oh yeah. She is a hottie" to my dad just to keep it a secret. I want to be able to take the "s" off of that "she". Good luck to you too. Hope your parents accept you for who you are.

    Well first off congrats on getting this far with every. That takes a lot of courage and even more so with you being young.
    I hope everything goes well with you and your parents tomorrow. Be strong and you'll be just fine (*hug*)

    I wish you all the best. It's scary,I know,but once it's done,it's done.
