    Well 100 % to my family! The last 2 people in my immediate family were my grandma and aunt. A little background. My grandma is almost 88 and has been recovering from a fall in which she broke her hip in 2 places ans fractured her arm. My aunt is younger than my mom but lives with my grandma. From the time I came out to my parents we had an understanding that we would not come out to my grandma until I met someone that I wanted to bring around to family. Now I have a bf who is the love of my life. We have talked about me moving in with him in the future and I want him to be around for Thanksgiving.

    Over the last couple of weeks I talked to my mom that I need to come out to them because Thanksgiving is a month away and I plan to bring my bf to the house. My mom & dad have been thinking the same thing. My mom said she would do it because she sees my grandma & aunt every other day. So the plan was to tell my aunt in private to see what she thinks about talking to my grandma then have me and my mom go and talk to my grandma. Well yesterday my mom, grandma and aunt were talking and my grandma said to my mom, " Does Eddie have a girlfriend, has he ever had one?" Then my mom thought it would be a good opening. She then told them and they were fine. My mom even told them about my bf. They were happy that I am so happy.

    I feel so relived. How I am 100 % out to all the people that I care about. I realize that I will always have people I will have to come out to but it will make it easier that I have family, friends and a bf that loves me. I feel so lucky! It DOES get better!
