    Last night I came out to my sister and my mom. We're staying at this resort in Honduras, and I'd been planning to tell them on New Year's Eve for a while. But the sooner and sooner the moment came, the more apprehensive and anxious I got. I was going to tell them over dinner, but I chickened out and told myself I'd tell them when we got back to the room.
    And...I did. As soon as we got back. They were both really supportive and they asked a few questions for about ten minutes or so, my mom said she'd always be here to support me...and we moved on. We played Yahtzee, watched some Doctor Who until midnight. We all hugged each other then, and then I went to bed.
    While I knew they would probably be supportive, the one thing that kept me from telling them was that I was worried it would change our relationship in some way. But it didn't. Neither of them has asked me another question about it yet, nor brought it up. And for that, I am grateful. :slight_smile:
