Thank you 💕 Do you mean my parents?
I won’t sugar coat it. It was bad. I was never in physical danger but the emotional toll was steep. It’s still very painful to talk to them about who I am and who I love.
My grandparents on my dad’s side know and they think I’m going to hell. My grandparents on my mom’s side still don’t know because she’s afraid to tell them. I don’t know which side hurts more.
but um… on a happier note,
My sister and her husband were REALLY great! She baked me a “funfetti” rainbow cake when I told her about Sam and me LOL
My brother was surprisingly supportive too, he was like “Yaknow, I suspected!” and asked me questions about my girlfriend like, “What is she like? What does she study?” It was refreshing.
And I’d venture to say 100% of my friends supported me with each reveal – I guess I never hung around homophobes anyway haha.
