    A few nights ago I dreamt that I was a rainbow-coloured puzzle piece, but I didn't fit anywhere within the boring grey puzzle. I told my sister about it, and she started analyzing my dream. She said: 'You feel like you don't fit in the boring society where everyone is the same, and you want to fit in, but you just can't.' I was like 'yeah right.' But she wasn't done yet. 'Oh, and you're gay. You know, rainbow.' I just stared at her. My thoughts were going like tell her, tell her, tell her, she won't have a problem with it, she likes gays, just tell her. Well, there was a long silence, and she was looking at her nails, and then I said: 'Well, you're half right. About the rainbow thing.' She stared at me for a moment, then a huge grin spread across her face, she stood up and hugged me. She said: 'I knew it.' Then she asked if mom and dad already know, and I said no. She said that I should tell dad first, and I agree. My mom is great, but a bit less accepting. We talked about it for a long time, then she went to bed. She left my room, but five seconds later she came in again, hugged me again, and said: 'I'm so proud of you!!!' Then same thing, she left my room, five seconds later she came in again and said: 'Now I've got a gay brother and a gay sister!!!'(we kinda suspect that my brother might be gay (okay, he's 8, but he's not really acting like a straight 8-year-old. He's got a bit of a feminine personality))
    And then my mother got really angry because we were still awake, and it was already 1:30 AM.
    I really love my sister!!! She's the first one of my family I've told, and I'm planning on telling my dad soon.

    Good for you :slight_smile: I really wish it had been like this for me when I told a family member.

    That's great! But I think your sister was completely right about your dream, and not only half. (Although the being gay is, of course, related to the "not fitting in" thing.)
