...and it went UNBELIEVABLY AMAZING!! All those years...I hated myself and dreaded the day that they ever found out that I was what they taught me to never be...and last night...they told me that they still love me and that nothing could ever change it. They started putting pieces together and said that it actually made a lot of sense XD I am SO HAPPY!!! Thank you all for all the love and support you have given these past very rough months [and sorry I disappeared for a bit] You guys are AWESOME! Peace & Love!!!! THANK YOU!!!!! (&&&) (!)
Congrats! There's a whole lot of us "Romans" who aren't nearly as scary as we're made out to be. (Even the straight ones.)
Congrats to you too then!! It's rough but feels so good when it's done! ---------- Post added 14th Aug 2013 at 01:03 PM ---------- Thank you everyone Best feeling I've ever had...I guess I'm officially out XD feels so good to say!!
That's awesome! I just came out to my mom a couple months ago. We were Methodist and we left the Episcopalian church right around the time they started allowing homosexuals to become priests so I was really worried that my parents were going to think awful things about me and totally change the dynamics of our relationships. Without a lot of friends in my life, I'm pretty close to my parents, so it was scary as hell to do it. But, it went over very well, and my mom told me pretty much the same thing you were told. I'm still not comfortable discussing it with them much, but I'm getting there. I hope you enjoy being out of the closet to some of the people that matter the most to you! It's a great feeling, really. The feeling that you're harboring a deep secret that will destroy the relationship is never a good one to have, hah. Glad you had the courage to unload.
Thats awesome! lol i still have to come out to my parents, i know my dad wont care, he is cool about that stuff. But my mom...idk. Anyways congrats!
I hope your friends are as understanding as your parents. Congratulations! To have parents so understanding is marvelous.
