Advice Needed

[hiddenmuse]

Just a warning - this is yet another entry about coming out.

As you all know, I did come out to my mom, who then outed me to the rest of the family. However, I have yet to come out to my dad.

For those who have come out to family, how did you go about it? Since my initial coming out was a "she asked, I told" deal ... this is something else altogether.

Did you just say, "I have something to tell you..." or "I'm gay" or did you have some other method to convey it?

This is a somewhat fragile relationship, and I'm doing what I can to rebuild it, so I want to do what I can to fuck it up as little as possible.


Thank you! :-D

OMG! Now that you mention it, my cousin who recently came out to the family used to ride his bike around when he was 5 or 6 singing "Luck be a lady". His mom owned Barry Manilow's Showstoppers. The family was like, oh um, yeah, wekindaknewalready.

Carly no advice, but good luck if you haven't already talked with your dad.
