    Hey everyone,

    I'm thinking that over half term, which I believe begins on the 9th February or something like that, I might come out to my mum that I'm a lesbian. It's kinda scary thinking about it. I hope she's okay with it. She's the family member that's likely to react the best.

    Good luck!
    I came out to my mom not too long ago and her exact response was: "And why did you think I'd be upset about that?"
    I was so happyy!

    Hope everything goes well!

    Parents love their kids, no matter what their intitial reaction..just let her have hers, whatever it is, and know that she'll come around...
