I just dont know how to bring the convo up. Do i just sit there and just say - 'Mum, Dad, I like girls and boys, and am edging towards just girls!' or, what??!!
but am terrified of telling them because my mum has a problems with lesbians, as she thinks that my girlfriend will come onto her, maybe. And i just think she will freek. And my dad has very strong thoughts on things and how they should be.
I dont have a clue if it is the wright time eather as we are going though a hard time, but have been for a while, and have no idea if i this is the perfect time, or just not say anything untill i do get a girlfriend.
I dont know. What do you guys think??!! anything will be really helpfull at this moment, i am always on edge incase something comes up like this. thanks, marshmallow xxx

yeah mine did the same thing as hunnybunny. Wait till you think the time is right. Don't push anything until you need to. The last thing you want to do is not be able to see your girlfriend Give it time, it'll work out.

I never told my mom when I was dating a woman, they just kind of assumed. But (sadly), they were thrilled when later I was dating a man! Could see a difference there.

I have been here before, a long long time ago and now I am back.Forgive me for not just saying what I want to say,even under a triple dose of antidepressants it is still raw and seeping and I am hesitant at revealing it as at least under the bandages around my heart I don,t have to look at how raw and wounded.My child was cleaved from my heart by his own actions. my child of ten,turning eleven...
