>>8441116
fuck you made me cry

>>8441116
That's sweet, Anon.

I got the nerve one random Saturday morning at 17. Just sat in the living room feeling more nervous than ever then finally break the silence and tell my parents. My mom started crying, not because I was gay, but because I had mentioned being worried about being rejected and the thought that I would ever think she might reject me was too much for her. I started crying, dad started crying. We all hugged. Little brother just awkwardly sitting to the side.

It was cringey as fuck but I can't really think of a better reaction.

>>8441270
Awww That's really cool of your folks though! Very sweet.
I told my mom in private one night, she cried a little too but for the same reasons your mom did. She knew that I must of played out this scenario in my head over and over,anticipating for the worst possible reaction. She also mentioned the world being more unfair to people like me but that I'm gonna do great regardless, and that I'm stronger for it.

Telling dad was easy, Again it was in private. He just shrugged, smiled and said he wants me to be happy, and not to worry about it, followed by another hug.

I've a younger brother too, 11 years old. One night I was babysitting and we wrre doing pillow fights in the living room. At one point he kept asking me why don't I have a girlfriend, and I told him casually I was gay, so I might have a boyfriend in future instead. He just replies "...ohh...really?" I said yep, h then cheekily smiled as said "really?" again, so I said yeah, really. "Oh, okay." Proceeded to watch zootopia.

I had it really easy.

>>8441292
Hope you are still doing good anon!

You must be good looking if the bar put you in their instagram.
Enjoy it while it lasts.
You're a minor celebrity.
Don't be surprised if people come up and talk to you now because they think they "recognize you from somewhere"
A similar thing happened to me and it got me laid several times before it faded away.
Now I'm a nobody just like everyone else.
I kind of miss being a local celeb.

I swear to fucking god she is. Half the time I see these troll threads on /lgbt/ of "straight" pol shitposters asking obvious bait questions and word for word that could be some shit my mom would ask me.

She's cut it out some because it honestly started to bother my brothers hearing mom say shit like "ew why would a you wanna kiss another girls titty" because it's just fucking weird to hear your mom say titty.

>brother tells me that our mom told him ages ago but never said anything because he wanted to hear it directly from me out of respect

>in her words, "it's kind of weird to be excited over something so normal"

Believe me, I know this sounds like some wish-fulfillment fantasy, but I swear to... well, I don't have anything to swear to since nothing's sacred around here, so I guess just insert whatever super important idol you revere.

But yeah, I swear I'm not making this up. It baffles me and breaks my heart to see parents completely disown their own children over such mundane bullshit.
Often just because they think some 2000-year-old Jesus fanfic told them to. Like, why can't you let your family be broken apart by something normal like alcoholism, or spousal abuse, or crippling financial debt?

1 There was a man of the Pharisees, named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jewes:

2 The same came to Jesus by night, and said unto him, Rabbi, wee know that thou art a teacher come from God: for no man can doe these miracles that thou doest, except God be with him.

3 Jesus answered, and said unto him, Verily, verily I say unto thee, except a man be borne againe, he cannot see the kingdome of God.

4 Nicodemus saith unto him, How can a man be borne when he is old? can he enter the second time into his mothers wombe, and be borne?

5 Jesus answered, Verily, verily I say unto thee, except a man be borne of water and of the spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdome of God.

6 That which is borne of the flesh, is flesh, and that which is borne of the spirit, is spirit.

7 Marveile not that I saide unto thee, Ye must be borne againe.

8 The winde bloweth where it listeth, and thou hearest the sound thereof, but canst not tel whence it commeth, and whither it goeth: So is every one that is borne of the Spirit.

9 Nicodemus answered, and said unto him, How can these things be?

10 Jesus answered, and saide unto him, Art thou a master of Israel, and knowest not these things?

11 Verely, verely I say unto thee, We speake that we doe know, and testifie that wee have seene; and yee receive not our witnesse.

12 If I have tolde you earthly things, and ye beleeve not: how shall ye beleeve if I tell you of heavenly things?

13 And no man hath ascended up to heaven, but hee that came downe from heaven, even the Sonne of man which is in heaven.

14 � And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wildernesse: even so must the Sonne of man be lifted up:

15 That whosoever beleeveth in him, should not perish, but have eternall life.

16 � For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Sonne: that whosoever beleeveth in him, should not perish, but have everlasting life.

17 For God sent not his Sonne into the world to condemne the world: but that the world through him might be saved.

18 � He that beleeveth on him, is not condemned: but hee that beleeveth not, is condemned already, because hee hath not beleeved in the Name of the onely begotten Sonne of God.

19 And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darknesse rather then light, because their deedes were evill.

20 For every one that doeth evill, hateth the light, neither commeth to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved.

21 But hee that doeth trueth, commeth to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God.

Your mom is just normal,moms in general what to know everything about their daughters,when you don't tell them they feel betrayed.

>>8445681
exactly,people don't realize that parents that disown over stupid shit like that werent' really ''good'' parents to begin with.
Because they wanted you to live the life they want you to live,treating you like a trophy rather than a person that they love.
Parents like this usually are shit to you even if you are straight,because they usually are very controlling and want to approve and see everything you do.
I understand parents being scared that you might end up being promiscuos,but anything more than that is just stupid.

My mother that I live with almost certainly suspects that I am gay. Such is the fate of shaving your legs.
I've told a few friends about my feelings for boys.
Honestly I don't think anyone would be astonished.

Probably true. I think mine does, although I'm not even comfortable with the fact myself. Mostly because I don't know what the fuck is going on with my sexuality.

>Then we had three or so hours of questions, shock, etc. I had to tell her that I do not really care if she is to disown me or whatever as she has no mechanism to change my mind or disturb my life, etc. Basically told her that she has no choice but to accept this fact.
>She spent a week with us traveling around, sightseeing, etc. Got to know my husband and our relationship better.
>Seems like she got it. Having gay child is not that bad.

English is not my first language as well, but here I go:
> 23
> raised in a very open-minded and caring family
> always publicly been somewhat detached and "austere", perfectionist guy, but with a humorous and theatrical, creative side that helped me get along with people.
> been angry with myself for being gay since I was 11, mostly because how inconvenient I thought
> really burnt by a couple past love stories
> progressively got more detached, kinda lost interest in everyone. Became ferociously uncompromising with people and friends and grew a harsh and uncaring attitude

> started coming out with some friends in 2016
> chilled down a bit
> found a really special friend recently. Came out with him really soon.
> utterly fell in love with him, but feel like I'm caring again for people and myself. We got along nicely and spent a lot of time together, just the two of us; eventually developed an ambiguous and exclusive relationship
> found the strenght to declare myself as the situation became too strange
> although really strange and flamboyant, he declares himself etherosexual and turns me down kindly. We promise we try our best to save our friendship
> Kinda devastated

> Decide to come out with my parents the day after, in order to overcome sadness, idk
> they didn't expect that and were thoroughly excellent, positive and grateful for me opening up with them

> appearently nobody expected me to be gay

I think it is possible with two conditions: being absolutely financially independent from parents (or whoever is your family) and breaking mental instalment of parental authority. Not sure how to explain my second point though. In my case that is more like 'I am grateful for all you have done to bring me up, but starting from this point your opinion is no longer valid in same cases/areas of expertise and I will not consider it." attitude. It was not smooth process to understand that her opinion is nothing but advice from some point of my life and I am not obliged to even consider it. So see for yourself but please be safe and have some "pillow" to fall onto if your parents decide to go rough.

It might, it might not. I dunno since we both are relatively the same height and body shape. We share things (except shoes). I don't thinks we display any signs of top/bottom preferences as well. People usually think we are both straight lol.
So I don't think that is my case, although I can see some logic behind this idea.

>>8443213
It really is, this happened to my cousin no fucking lie:

>she was about 20-21, living with her dad and her sister at the time
>sitting on her bed, crying her eyes out
>my uncle/her dad comes home, sees her bawling on the couch "Sweetie what's wrong, etc"
>"Julie just broke up with me..."
>"Oh that sucks, you gonna be alright?"
>"Yeah, maybe..... oh, and uh, I'm gay....?"
>"YOU DON'T SAY!" in a really sarcastic tone

and then he took her out for ice cream and spent the rest of the day talking about cute girls.

Meanwhile I'm so far in the closet I'm pretty sure I'm getting close to Narnia. That cousin is one of the few that knows because we both told each other way back in the day.

Awww. I'm glad things worked out for you, Anon.

>>8458267
you could have taken your bestie though he was gay too wasn't he? ; w ;

>>8458282
I don't know if they have that kind of thing where you come from, but it's basically a big dance for people in their junior and senior year. I think some schools might have them separate, but mine had both grades together. People in younger years could go too but they had to be invited by a junior or a senior.

>>8458334
Thanks. Like I said I'm really lucky.

>>8458355
He was the one I wanted to ask. But like I said he got the shit bullied out of him for being gay so he already decided he wasn't going because he was worried about getting hassled. So I didn't get the chance. Besides it probably wouldn't have been much fun. My school didn't ban same-sex dates like some did, but anything beyond just taking a picture together was "inappropriate". This girl took her girlfriend one year and teachers wouldn't even let them hold hands or dance.

He and I hung out with some of our friends who weren't going instead. It was way more fun.

>>8458389
>I don't know if they have that kind of thing where you come from, but it's basically a big dance for people in their junior and senior year.
In Poland we have *one* ball 100 days before final matura exam which is "document of maturity" that says you've completed 12 years of education. But there's no junior/senior thing.

>>8458467
Junion and senior prom is an American meme my polish dude.

>>8458833
I don't even know what junior/senior mwans in this context. Allmy knowledge about burgerproms comes from romantic comedies for teenagers like HighSchool Musical.

>>8458389
so you liked your bestie then? that's qt. you should have told him the night y'all were supposed to be at prom and then danced/kissed or something alone together.

>>8458901
american high school is four years long. junior is year three and senior is year four.

>>8459438
>american high school is four years long. junior is year three and senior is year four.

does it go: first-ear>sophomore>junior>senior?

and why juniors get their proms?

>>8459438
Yeah I was totally head-over-heels teenaged garbage for him at that point in time in my life. If my life resembled anything like a romantic comedy that's probably how it would have gone down. But it doesn't and instead I was an asshole who waited until my second year of college to do anything.

>>8459738
Yeah that's pretty much how it goes. Only first years are usually called "freshmen" over here. Which now that I think about it probably sounds weird as fuck to people who don't normally do that.

I have no idea why juniors get a prom, honestly. I don't think it used to be that way. I was never a fan of dances or anything like that, though.

>>8459738
>american high school is four years long

in some american cities high school is only 3 years.

the first year is called freshman year.
in some places it is grouped into junior high like this:

junior high
7th
8th
9th

senior high
10th
11th
12th

>>8459812
>>8459805
Thank you anons

>>8459812
Why does it vary by city? Doesn't that mean some kids get less education than others?

27, at home for a rare visit to my mum.

She forces into conversation about how she's okay with gays and how it's natural and totally okay with it.

I say 'yeah'.

Maybe next year.

>>8459969
i think you misunderstand.
there are always 12 years.
in some places the 9th year is in junior high.
other places it is in senior high.

>>8459969
>Why does it vary by city?

Because of variation in class cohorts and sizes of buildings.
Schools can only handle so many pupils.
In some places the high school was constructed to handle 1,500 students.
Then a large population "bulge" came a long and now there are too many students to fit in the high school. So they take the youngest grade and put it into the junior high feeder schools who are better able to absorb the extra students.
In other areas the reverse is true.

>>8460029
Oh right. Why switch that one year?

>>8459805
>I was an asshole who waited until my second year of college to do anything.

and did he reject you? ; w ; what happened??

>>8460061
The American school system is fucked and the way they split up the age levels differently across the board is only the tip of the iceburg.

>>8460365
We had a really long, awkward talk at four am when we were both burnt out from finals right before summer break. It turned out to be worth it, though.

A lot of shit, really. But personally I think the shittiest thing is that they put a ton of emphasis on something called "standardized tests". It's a test that everyone takes and is the same across the board so several things happen:
1.) Teachers only teach to the test and leave out more important shit
2.) Students do bad on the test because not enough of what's on it matches the lessons in the classes they're taking
3.) Students who are model students but bad test takers wind up getting their education hurt because the perform badly on standardized tests. A girl I knew fell into this category and it stopped her from continuing with advanced classes.

It's all bullshit.

>>8464945
I neglected to mention that by the time we were done talking it out it was 9 pm so we put dinner on hold. Figured there was enough context there.

But I mean, technically everyone here could be lying.

That sounds like my sister yeah.

I'm actually thinking of coming out to my parents. I known they won't take it well, but I can't take it anymore. I feel like suffocating, like I'm living two life at once.

I'm thinking of "ambushin" them with my psychiatrist rather than tell them at home.
On other hand I could also tell my sister. Problem is, we are not close and we barelly talk. But I know she's open minded about those stuff.

tl;dr I lied about having a boyfriend and that caused more trouble than actually coming out. lol

>>8440339
This is what my future looks like?

In my case I'm a closeted bi, and I believe my parents suspect something. My father had terminal cancer and 15 days before he died he told me that I was too lonely, that I should bring a female friend (implying girlfriend) to our home. Then he made a pause and told me that "or a male friend" (I'm translating this conversation btw). I looked at him, the person I thought was the most homophobic and I really believe he knew... But it was my mother present at that moment and she interrupted him, yelling what did he mean by saying that. So I just said "so I can't have friends?" And no one said something else. I really want to believe that my father knew and supported me... But I won't know for sure, not in this life.

>>8474914
It sounds like he was willing to put aside his prejudices to see his son happy. Despite his original stance it takes a lot of strength to do that.

>>8475129
I find this plausible. Thank you anon, these are kind words.

>>8465118
Actually, 2. is because not every student has a great memory, and 1.) is only good if all your students can memorize efficiently.

Our metric of what a model student is was based a lot on test performance and it's fucked up. Currently, admin is still on board with tests because that's how they get funding, while teachers all understand how shitty it is but can't do anything about it without risking their job.

>>8474914
Your dad loved you anon. He may have suspected something and was not sure, but wanted to remind you that your happiness was the most important thing to him.

>>8474914
thats kinda sweet
how old are you?

i'm also closeted bi
my mother asked me if i was gay, i denied it
the reason she suspects is that I have never had a girlfriend (or a boyfriend for that matter) at age 24

should i even tell my parents i'm bi? i think i should either tell them i'm gay or not say anything at all. because if they knew i was bi, they probably want me to fuck around with boys but settle with a girl asap

i dont wanna get into that dynamic

>>8475524
you are all dumb
how are you supposed to know if someone has learned something, capable of something?

I dont know about the stupid shit like literature or history; but as far as math/physics is concerned, the tests are a damn good indication of how much someone has learned / is capable of.

>>8475548
Thank you, I loved him too. I miss him, it's hard to lose a close relative.

>>8475554
Haha kinda sweet?
I'm 27. I believe the reason most parents think that about their children is because they don't show visible interest of the opposite sex. In my case I had a gf years ago and lasted 2 years with her... and I'm pretty sure when my parents knew her, they got a huge relief haha. But it didn't last long.

Should you tell your parents? Only if you want to. Maybe if you're dating someone of your sex and wanted to introduce them or something haha, or just for the sake of telling them.

>>8440048

>>8476135
They acted supportive at the time but I don't buy a word of it, in reality they're quite dependent on me and don't want to make trouble for themselves by burning any bridges so they hold their tongues. I don't think he cared, maybe he was just bored, I don't know we don't talk anymore.

>>8476183
