I would have to say that she (your mom) will need some time to come to terms with this issue on her own.... step back and let her breathe and then in time she will talk to you as she is ready.

Please do keep in mind that while your mom is acting mean and rude to you right now - that she probably still loves you very much - she is just confused right now and well when we cannot put a name to our feelings - it comes out as ANGER.

Hang in There - it will work out as it should.... true destiny is yours.

LoVe,
Rhapsody -

She WILL get over it. Give her time, and try to understand that it's not an easy thing for a parent to face. She has probably had fantasies of what your dating life would be like, and now she needs to readjust all of that. Plus, it might be a hard thing to admit to her friends, depending upon what her social scene is like.

Be nice to her -- you're both going to struggle with this for a little while.

How did she FIND this stuff out?????

Sorry to hear your mom isn't taking it so well. Not everyone will react how you want them to when they find out. Some people will be down right mean and/or abusive.

When I told my mom that I was seeing a woman and that I was bi, she actually seemed like she was ok with it. She had many gay friends, so she wasn't at all shocked about it. Although I am more attracted to women, I do find myself dating more men. Mostly due to the fact that the lesbian population around here is very small! I mean I live in a very traditional area where it's mostly straight.

Try to hang in there. Remember that your mom does love you and that she's having a hard time right now. But it by no means excuses her unnecessary behavior. Well, I think the meanness and all that is unnecessary...

Take care.
