How did you come out to your parents?
I just turned 18 this month, on july 28th, 2010, I was tired of hiding from my family and friends what the truth was about me. I was honestly terrified, I texted my step-dad because he is all that I really have left and I told him that I had something important to tell him. He called me back and asked what it was. I told him that when he comes home I would talk more about it. So when he got home, I just broke down into tears and told him how it really was.
What did you say?
I said Dad, I don't want you to be mad at me or to judge me for what I am about to say..... He said okay I won't. I said dad, the reason i don't really go on many dates is because I am not that into guys, I prefer girls. He asked what I meant, and i said, "Dad, I am bisexual but I am more into females." He walked away to think about what I had just told him. He came back and said, "you know what? i will love you always no matter who you are dating and no matter what their gender is." I just broke down and cried for a little while. But it was a happy ending of the night. :)
Advice
- Just be honest
- dont tell someone through a text, try and do it face to face.
- stay calm
- expect the worst but hope for the best.
