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

I'm here at the recommendation of my darling fragbert. I hope you don't mind if I stick around.

This line alone makes me think your mother and mine are two peas in a pod.

Hello! Please stick around, and don't mind the occasional insanity! :)

Considering that we both survived the Mormon church, I wouldn't be surprised if our mothers are two peas in a pod!
