I came out to my Dad today. And he was really accepting. And I knew he would be because we talked about gay rights and stuff all the time but for some reason I waited a really long time to tell him. But now that I've told him, I don't really want to talk about anything related to that at least for now with him. I'm actually kind of upset. I was the same way for the first few weeks when I came out to my Mom last spring but this time a little angrier because I feel like I shouldn't feel like this, especially not when I've done this before. I hate that I feel like this. I wonder if there's something wrong with me because I'm upset when I should be happy. I feel like I must be the only person to have such a great reaction from such accepting parents and be upset afterwards. And I feel guilty for feeling this way when so many don't have accepting parents. I just needed to get this off my chest. Any advice?
I'm not out to my parents, but I would say just give it time. I'm sure it takes some time getting used to your parents knowing the thing that used to be your personal business.
