Today I was so down and depressed from all the stress I had in me to come out to my family for the longest time. Worrying about whether or not they would accept me, or still love me.
I felt so lazy, tired, and I was hurting inside.
My mom noticed and asked me what was wrong. She said that I had to tell her what was wrong and then finally asked "do you have something to say?"
I said yes and told her that the things everyone had said about me were true and that I was gay :|
She was shocked and came to the conclusion that I was "confused" because I had never experienced anything with anyone so how would I know. (As sad and embarassing as it is, it's true :( ) But I told her that I just know. I had to tell her my whole life story about how I tried to like girls first because I thought it was the right thing to do, but then how I gave up because I wasn't having much luck with them. I moved on to boys because I was tired of trying so hard to be something I wasn't.
Anyways they're still in shock and I'm gonna have to give them more than a day to take this all in, but they still love me and that's a good start for me :)
awe. *hug. you are so brave to have that conversation. I wish the very best for you and your relationships. i hope that people will show up in your life that will support and care for you. *big hug.
I'm so sorry Nelson, I hope everything gets better and she ends up accepting you<3 At least your mom's reaction was really good compared to so many other mothers.
