Hey, I hope the holidays were good for you. Don't sell your Christian friends short, but definitely have your talking points down about what Jesus had to say regarding homosexuality (answer: NADA). Thumbs up.
Man, I'm so sorry your mom was not supportive when you came out to her. What she asked you to do is extremely unfair. I hope that you'll have a better experience coming out now that you're at university. I wish you the best of luck, and please feel free to contact me if you ever need anyone to talk to.
Sorry to hear about the experience with your mom. Its sorta like my experience but instead of telling her she figured it out after cleaning my room while I was at school. Good thing about it though is you being gay is proabably still on her mind and shouldn't be such a surprise to her when you tell her. Great to hear you have a friend that came out a few months ago. That will deffinently help out. Good luck and look forward to more videos!
good luck x i think you have a really sensible approach to the process. you're right. it's important to have a strategy. always best to tell your most likely ally first ! i think it's great you have such a patient and compassionate view of your mother's past response too. very mature of you. i find it hard to be so understanding. all the best with everything. stay safe and true.
I'm sorry the initial reaction of your family forced you back in the closet, but I am glad you are finding your way back out independently. The thing to remember is no matter whether the familial reaction is positive or not, at the end of the day you have to be true to yourself. You're seuxality can't change because moms doesn't like it. I think it is wise for you to come out to guys you know are gay, or friends you know are accepting. That's the happy path most of us take. muchluvandluckman
Very nice video! I wish you the best of luck, and I admire your courage to being able to accept yourself, and be proud of who you are. I know how hard it can be, but you always gotta remember you are not alone, I know exactly the position you are in. Take it one step at a time, definitely no rush to it. Keep it up, and if you ever need anything, let me know =)
I want to reach out to you =) I come from a similar background. I understand how hard it can be to deal with homophobic family members. I always knew I was gay and really everyone else did too. Because of all the homophobia, it took me a very long time to come to terms with the real me and accept myself. I felt such a burden of shame for being gay. A few years ago, I just couldn't take it anymore, an I began to come out. Love me or not, I'm finally feeling free and me! Hugs, Len
