It was kind of out of the blue, but I came out to my mother. She was kind of shocked at first, but she started to warm up. She tried to explain that I might be going through a phase, but I quickly informed her that I was certain bout my attraction to guys. I also informed her that I might also like girls, and that my sex drive is actually quite low. So I might still have my guy friends sleep over, as I also told her everything about what my attraction to guys is, and told her that humans are capable of loving anyone. She told me that she loves me, she's proud of me because this took courage, and that her biggest hopes for me are to be happy, healthy, and able to take care of myself. She also said her dreams about who I was gonna be are gonna have to change, but that it will just take time for her. She said it was like dreaming her son was gonna be a doctor and him having that engraved in his heart, but him turning out to be drummer in an amazing band (she referred to that because I wanna go down the music path). She told me she loves me a lot, and that she knows I'm the same person before I came out. It was weird though, she said she knew before my sister came out that she was gay. She told me she never, ever thought at any point that I might be gay. Other than that, she took it pretty well.
omigosh that sounds almost exactly like my mom. We had like the same key points hit there on both ends I'm so happy for you, I felt amazing after my mom took it so well.
