So we were just in the car and I was like... um... so I just thought you should know... I might be a lesbian. her: well its not uncommon for girls your age to experiment no.. I haven't been "experimenting" I just think that I might be a lesbian her: well what makes you think that then? ...*me rambling on about gay issues and avoiding saying anything specific* her: Ok thanks for letting me know and educating me. Don't worry I still love you. now why do you think you are? well because I sort of have a crush on K and stuff. her: well she is pretty nice. her blue hair stage was a little weird, but it worked for her. so you aren't mad even though it's like against out religion? her: why on earth would I ever be mad. I'm fine with it right now it just needs to sink in wait so... in the future you won't be fine with it? her: no I will be I love you it doesn't change anything... except... you know there are friends and there are people who are more than friends and then there are people who are *more* than friends. I'm cool with it as long as lines aren't crossed. Haha. alright. so *proceeds to draw lines* this is all good right? her: I guess... please let me know if anything I say ever offends you Oh awkward conversations with my mother. PS: later in the day she couldn't open a bottle of tea and handed it to me and asked if I could open it. I said, "why because I'm a lesbian? stereotype much?" and we laughed. I'm just so glad my coming out to her went so well! I wish everyone else well.
Congratulations on coming out to your mom! It might have been an awkward conversation, but it seems that the end result is pretty fantastic!
Wow great job coming out to your mom! Sounds like it went okay, despite being an awkward conversation.
Im curious, what did she mean by "I will be I love you it doesn't change anything... except... you know there are friends and there are people who are more than friends and then there are people who are *more* than friends. I'm cool with it as long as lines aren't crossed"?
Yay! If it weren't awkward it would be weird/scripted/not genuine. Congrats :icon_wink:eusa_clap(*hug*)
She doesnt care if I want to do "stuff" with girls or guys she just doesn't want me to do too much at 17 and when I'm not in a committed relationship.
