    It went great! We were on our way home from the city, a two hour drive and I tried hinting at it, but she changed the subject. So I flat out asked, "so are you changing the subject because you already know?" And she replied with, "what, that you're gay?" So we talked about it, she asked some questions. Of course she asked if I was sure, if I was full on gay or bi, and asked if I've had sex with another guy. I told her the truth, that I have, and she asked if I was safe, which I was. She said she had suspected for years, and made sure to let me know she still and will always love and accept me, then she asked me what I find attractive about guys! Awkward! It was all very strange, yet so freeing and relieving. I don't have to lie around her anymore, and I don't have to check my slightly feminine mannerisms. I've got a toe out of the closet, so I'm off to a good start.

    Thank you. I am too, I knew she would be accepting, I was just really scared to tell her for some reason.

    My computer is temporarily down for the moment, and my phone won't let me use the quote option, so I'm going to have to do this old school, lol.

    Ticklish Fish; "congratulations! Now get some fresh air out of that closet."

    The first breath I took after she said she still accepts and loves me felt like the first breath I've taken in over a decade. Thank you all for your support.
