Coming Out - Results
So I promised you all last night that I would tell you the reaction of my parents when I came out as bi last night
And as promised, here it is
So, I walk into the room with my skethbook, the drawing open.
My sister looks at me like "What's going on?" While my mom just raises an eyebrow at me and my (non-biological) brother's fianceé just stares at me.
I set the sketchbook on the bed. My mom could not, for the life of her, figure out what I meant. Then my sister says "I think your teenager is trying to tell you she's bi." All I could do was nod.
My mom starts laughing and I was so confused, then she's like "It wasn't that hard to figure out." Soooo my parents already knew pretty much and I hadn't even come out. My dad wasn't really paying attention, he was watching random stuff about cars on YouTube.
So I could have spared myself the yelling and tears, but me being the dumbass I am, I was all like "Well did y'all know I have a girlfriend??" Which, by the way, isn't a lie, I do legitamitely have a girlfriend.
They all start squealing and clapping and cheering, something they hadn't done for me IN YEARS. So I was really happy. My (nb) brother's fianceé (actually we'll just say she's S from here on out) says "So what's her name?" And I answered. Now, I don't know if my girlfriend wants me to say her name or tell y'all who she is on here so we'll say she's E. (if I was yelling to any of y'all im excitement bc she said yes a couple days ago you already know who she is)
My sister then says "Wait, please tell me she's not from the Internet." And I said "She lives in (stateshelivesin)" and their faces fell so bad
All of the sudden they were lecturing me, my mom was trying to cinvince me to break up with her, trying to get me to hurt MY SWEET LITTLE DIAMOND, and were explaining "dangers of the world" that had absolutely nothig to do with my relationship with E. S shows me an episode of some show called "Catfish" and explains that stuff that happens in the show happen in real life.
But oh, it gets worse
My mom says to me "Oh your little internet friends, Carey, Logan, Sofia, Tina, Gabi, Kiara, Jasmine, all of them could be sex offenders trying to harm you"
I was fucking done at that point
I went off on their asses, telling them that all of my internet friends are some of the sweetest people I know, that they're here for me more than my own family, they listen more, they support me and my decisions more, and just all around are here for me more than my own biological family
Here's when Dad comes into play
Last words I got in were "I can never be happy in this house because one of you always finds a way to crush my happiness." My mom started saying "I don't give a shit whether you happy or not, but-" and my dad stood up, and cut her off.
"Now listen Sam-" Mom started yelling again, Dad yelled for her to shut it and let him talk. Mom was pissed, but just slumped back and let Dad talk.
Here's what he said:
"Now listen. I'm happy you have a girlfriend. I'm happy you know your own sexuality. I don't mind if you date this girl. Hell, if you're together for 30 years I'd love it, even though you can't make babies. All I ask, is that you're careful. If you ever go to meet this girl, I want to be there. I dont care who you talk to on the Internet. As long as you're careful. If you want to go meet your Internet friends, all I ask is that I come with you. To make sure nobody gets hurt. I can tell these people, especially E, mean a lot to you. And it's incredible how happy they make you. Just be careful. You're my baby girl and if you got hurt and I could've done something I wouldn't be able to live with myself."
After that, I walked over to my dad's side of the bed, and hugged him tightly... I hadn't hugged my dad since about 2nd grade before then... We just never really talk. We never get around to having a "sit-down-and-discuss-life conversation"
But now I know why I was so scared to come out to my parents, they're almost never supportive of my life... Well except my dad, he's really cool about it as long as I know what I'm doing and I'm careful
So, that was my parents (and sister and brother's fianceé) reactions. At least it's all out now....
Thank you all for the love and support you gave me throughout this whole thing. It's been really helping throughout this entire "coming out" ordeal. The sad part is, I was hoping to be smiling when I came out of the closet. But, I ended up crying
But if it means knowing I can be with my sweet little Diamond and not have to worry aboit hiding it from my parents, so be it
I love you guys to the end of the galaxy and back. I'll try to write more of stories today, but I can't guarantee anything. Bye guys❤❤❤❤
