    Last night I came out to my parents and brother Raymond,it was very positive and I am glad I came out.This happened after dinner and I told them I need to come out about something.I told them it this way:Mom,Dad and Raymond,I am a lesbian now and I am attracted to women.My brother reacted first,he told me I am his sister and I am still his sister.My mom and dad told me they still love me and want to see me happy.I did tell them I have a girlfriend Trisha and luckily she stopped by.My mom,dad and my brother did meet my girlfriend Trisha.I am happy that my mom and dad and my brother accept that I am a lesbian and I know they will be supportive of me.

    Thanks,my parents knew there was something on my mind and I had to come out.I am a "late time" lesbian,I was married for a year and a half to my ex husband Kenneth and we were divorced because of differances.I did come out to him since he new there was something wrong,told him that I am a lesbian and attracted to women,My family accepts it and saw I am finally happy.

    It's good that it was all reasonably "straightforward" for you. Hope everything keeps moving positively for you and your gf.
