    I just came out to my dad and he took it really well. I told my mom a month ago, but he took it much better than her and we had a wonderful conversation about humanity in general, it was perfect :slight_smile:

    And now time to start thinking about telling my friends and my brother. :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:ride:

    Congratulations on coming out to your parents! Glad to hear that your coming out was perfect. :slight_smile:

    How's your mom coping? Has she started to be more accepting and supportive?

    Yeah my mom's gotten much better, she just needed time to talk it out. She was always accepting, but its taking her a while to understand a perspective different from her own. But she's trying, and thats all that really matters to me :slight_smile:

    Hi there! Great to hear that your mom is slowly coming around, and that she is trying to understand a different perspective and essentially get to know a different part of you. It must be a relief for you knowing that (and seeing) that she is trying. :slight_smile:
