So yea, You guys may know my other thread "so...a foot out of the closet." I've come such a long way since then.
So here is the update. My mom called me today. And we were initially talking about my grades and whatnot. And she was really getting on my case. Then I got quiet. Then she was like. Is there anything wrong? Anything you need to tell me? I just said no. And she was like, "so you can't talk to your mother anymore? Have we grown that far apart to where you don't think you can trust me? Haven't I always made you feel like you can talk to me?"
Then I started crying. I tried to hide it but she kept saying stuff and I couldn't hide it. She then just kept telling me "I know something is wrong, just tell me." I kept denying it.
but she kept pushing it. I just said "It doesn't have anything to do w/ my grades or anything." She said "Did you do something bad?" I said "no, It's not something I did, it's just something about me." At that point, I think it finally came together for her. And sh ewas like, "tell me." I just remained quiet. She then said "Do you want me to play the guessing game with you?" I said "uh huh" And she goes, "I take it you're not attracted to females?" I was just quiet, and then said yea.
She didn't take it badly at all. At least she didn't act like it. She just said that "I don't know how you can label yourself that if you haven't had sex with a male or female." I told her it was something I've been holding in for years. She started laughing at me b/c she couldn't believe it, and said she couldn't see how I came to that conclusion w/out having sex.
She said when I come home for Spring Break she's gonna hire a female escort so I can experience a woman. I really don't want that. She said if I still decide I don't like it, then that will be fine, I will still be her son.
It was a very awkward conversation. Theres more too it, but thats the MAIN stuff. She said "You could have saved yourself alot of stress if you told me this years ago."
I'm very happy she didn't get mad and hang up on me or say she would disown me. But I didn't like that she laughed at me. Making the situation lighter than what it is. But I'm thankful for that over the other reaction.
So there ya go. I'm OUT of the closet. To my mom at least. I never plan on telling my dad. My mom even said that he'd act like a "jackass" if it were him I was telling lol.
