    Hi,

    My name is Sam. I'm here for some advice. My family still doesn't know, but I think they will find out soon. I have been spending a lot of time with an older female and we are both going on a camping trip together. Any advice?

    Thanks

    Sam

    Hi Sam, welcome to Empty Closets. Just to clarify, are you seeking advice about coming out/your family finding out or about the relationship and camping trip.. or both?

    Hello and welcome to EC, feel free to message me if you need help with anything or want to chat. You haven't said enough about your family for me to help there but with the camping waterproof tent, lots of layers (summer nights can still be cold), if you plan to BBQ at any time make sure you have beer (my Dad says it is needed for some reason) and my Dad's favourite saying "there are no too harsh conditions just bad equipment." And enjoy it that's important.

    Both, I guess. They are going to find out someday, but do you think going on a camping trip with another girl is a clue?

    Oh we have good equipment, she's actually got a cool teardrop trailer. I am excited to experience the outdoors in this setting (!)

    Thank you. Just to update, and I will post this in another forum, the camping trip was great, but as I had expected, my family kinda figured out what was going on. So...they know. But it was worth it.. the experience was that of a lifetime. Also, the trailer was so awesome that we camped in, I can't post pictures but I'll drop a link if interested. Little Guy Teardrop Trailers | be different.
    I guess they have quite a gay following and Lesbians are a significant part of the clientele.

    thanks
