    Everyone, I've decided with finality to come out to my mum tomorrow morning before we go to church. The pieces have already been set in place, and I'll maker her breakfast then deliver the letter. I'm not sure yet when the letter should be given to my father - and him I'm really worried about. But my only resolution for this New Year's was to come out as soon as possible. So I'm going to do it, I swear.

    But I need help from you guys, and if you're reading this, any word of support can go a long way. And this may seem out of the blue, but to all you fellow Christians out there, please pray on my behalf.

    I've never felt more afraid in my life. God help me.

    Hope you spill your guts, and own it "like a boss." It's only as scary as your mind makes it.

    Kodo - you have to be yourself. If your parents love you (as I am certain they do) then they will respect your position. Anyway the chances are that it won't come as a shock to your mother. Trust me - Mothers always know!!

    I thought I would come out to my mother first before braving my Dad. Mum said "I wondered how long it would take before you got round to telling me". Suddenly Dad was a lot less scary. Good luck X X X
