    Ok, So after drinking until 1am with him, I still never told him. Just couldn't find the moment - So, us being a hugly automated family, I emailed him.

    Sloppy and rubbish but I don't care :grin:

    I feel, due to the stress of school, etc. , There is one thing I
    shouldn't be stressing about, and that is how to tell you that I'm
    bisexual.
    I've tried, and failed, to tell you this in person. I just can't.
    Now as a father your naturally going to think this is a ' Phase ' , or
    that im confused, or this is due to hormones etc etc etc. I've heard
    it all before and believe me, this isn't something I've decided over
    night. It's been almost two years since I have known for sure, and
    even before that I always doubted my orientation. I don't need you to
    be understanding or accepting, and in no way expect you to be. I'm
    used to not being excepted because of this. I just need you to know.

    Please don't approach me about this email in a very concentrated
    way, because this isn't easy to talk about. Remember that I love you,
    Always have, and always will, And you've done extraordianry job raising me.

    Well, you asked him not to bring it up 'in a concentrated way.' So maybe he is just respecting that. A good sign?
