I hope you're wrong about your family. Maybe they can accept you as is, and you won't have to wait for post-mortem approval from them
I guess part of the problem is they are different generation. A WWII and few regime changes and occupations happened since they were born, so maybe they stopped following the world along that. And I don't fit in any era and place... so hard to except to be "got".
Hankster... I am trying to put that (my mother and my sexuality) on hold for now. We'll see how things go when I get into big immoral Prague.
Venus, I do not know if Yalta alone is enough to keep a girl alive, but it did help Chechov, who was one of the greatest dramatists humanity has produced, recover from a horrible disease of the lungs. He wrote some of his best pieces while living in Yalta. So you are definitely not alone liking the place.
Yalta was one of the places to my bucket list (because Yalta conference... I am such nerd). I did see Chekhov's house there. I plan to go back one day. Crimea definitelly helped to keep my focus of horrible things at that point. So we'll see about it.
Anyways thanks everybody. Trying to keep going. And distract and look for good omens and pray. For myself and all the people in my life.
