:help: And so my mother continues to be in denial about my sexuality. I don't like to label myself but if that's what it takes I don't mind saying I'm a Lesbian (although I really hate that word). Today she said "You're not a Lesbian, I don't believe you." How do I get her to take me seriously? :bang:
Don't force it on her. Just like you needed time to accept you were interested in woman, your mother also needs time to come to terms with it as well. She's still in the stage of denial. For now, just keep on with your life.
How long has she been in denial? If it's 6 months or less... that's understandable. If it's more than that... it may take you being in a healthy relationship for her to really "get it." It's harder for some people than for others but I'm sure she'll eventually come around
Hey RedLight, I'm in a similar position with my girlfriend. She tells me I'm bi, I tell her I'm gay. Funny though, she left and I start fantasizing about girls again like I was when I was straight. But when she's here I'm gay as a rainbow. I'm a weird dude, I guess, haha.
