My Mom and Dad were always against gay people, and outspoken about it. I tried to be straight for so long, and it was terrible. I was miserable. So first I decided I was bi because technically I had been witha guy. But I always preferred women. When I got together with my first partner, I was so relieved andhappy. I came out to my mom and she told my dad, because I so did not want to face him. My parents are very conservative. My dad was born in 1933 and my Mom in 1942. My mom was great when I told her and told me she just wanted me to be happy and hse loved me no matter what. My dad was harder. We never talked about it, andhe has since died. My mom tells me that he accepted it to an extent and just wanted me to be happy. I wish the best for you. Your parents may come around, they may not. It could be good, bad, or indifferent. What I do know is that as I got older and because an adult, I just didn't care what others thought of me. Remember only you can decide what its best for you. Wishing you the best.

I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I—
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.
