    So, there's not really hat much to say... I went on a long walk round the fields near our house, and was talking to my sister about family matters, and just told her. I was expecting it to be a bit more dramatic, but her "well, it's not really a surprise" reaction fell within the spectrum of plausible answers I guess.

    Next step: mum and dad! :eek:

    Well that's good! Hopefully mom and dad will have the same reaction! But yeah, I totally hear you; I always expect it to be totally dramatic ('cause often times it is XD), so it's shocking yet relieving when it's not. :grin:

    Actually the funny thing is, when my sister found out about me, we were at a restaurant and I was talking about relationship stuff (being careful about using pronouns), and she asked "were they all girls?" so I said no. It was kinda weird 'cause it showed she already suspected/knew... hehe XD

    Yep, well the parents may well get the chance to give me their feelings about it tomorrow! Yeah, I was amused, mostly because everybody else's reaction has been along the lines of "I wasn't expecting that".

    Congrats!

    I think sisters are like mothers, they just know.

    My sister's response: "I don't have any problem with it. And I had kinda guessed." This was said with a big smile on her face, and I'm pretty sure she was more excited than anything else that her older brother was gay:lol:

    Wish my sister was like that. She was ok, but she's really naive about things like sex, and whatnot.

    I suspect mine is too, but I didn't really get onto the whole business of gay sex :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:
