Yay, out to dad!

    Hi everybody,

    I just came out to my dad 30 minutes ago!

    I told him I'd like to have a conversation with him in a few days (today we had not much time) so he asked me if I could give him a hint. I couldn't really give a hint without saying it all so I just said "I'm gay" and that was it! He took it very well, turns out he wasn't even close to being homophobic! He said he was OK as long as I'm happy :slight_smile:!

    I also asked him if he knew. He didn't, just like my mom. I must be very good at keeping secrets!

    It's not really a very interesting/funny story but I though I'd share it anyway.

    I'm happy for you that your dad is OK with the news. I assume your mother was also. Good luck with everything.

    Would that all coming-out stories were so "boring"!
