    (!) I was so looking forward to do this and I was preparing myself the whole evening. Every Wednesday I sleep at my grandparents and we call my older (and only) brother via Skype (he lives far away and our grandparents just want to know how he's doing). So I told myself that after the conversation, I will write to him and tell him. So, here's how it went.
    M= me, B = brother

    M: Hey, do you have a minute?
    B: Yeah.
    M: Can you keep a secret?
    B: Erm... yes :icon_bigg
    M: I mean, seriously...
    B: Okay then... seriously.
    M: So, you won't tell anyone, right?
    B: I won't tell anyone.
    M: I mean like anyone.
    B: Of course.
    M: Do you maybe have an idea of what I'm going to tell you?
    B: Not at all... maybe it's some *guy-name*
    This part is I guess impossible to translate from our language, so I will skip it, anyway he didn't get the point (I admit that it was totally crazy what I was writing :lol: )
    M: Well, what I am trying to say here is that... I like girls... And you are the very first family member who knows.
    B: Oh, I see... so, you like girls only?
    M: I don't know. I mean, I like boys too, but not like girls. Not in that way.
    B: I understand. Erm, is there any specific girl you are talking about?
    M: Not really (I guessed he was asking whether I had a girlfriend)
    B: So... how long have you known?
    M: For a few years now...
    B: You're really saying it early then, aren't you?
    M: Was that supposed to be ironic?
    B: Yes :lol:

    He was really cool with it and we are still on chat lol :grin:

    M: So, you are okay with it, right? Nothing has changed between us?
    B: Well, I was a bit shocked but on the other hand I appreciate that you've told me and maybe it will get even better now when you don't have to pretend anything in front of me.

    And it really is. I mean, I have never had a conversation like this with my brother. We are talking literally about everything and that is just great... I love him so much! (*hug*) And also I love you, guys, for being so supportive! (&&&) I am sooo happy right now! :lol:

    I think it's really sweet that your brother defused that with humor.
