@ the anon with the super supportive mother, that is the cutest and sweetest thing I’ve ever seen that she purged the unsupportive relatives. Please tell your mom she is amazing. That’s so awesome to see. Love my mom but her reaction was more her being “fine” w me being gay but that other ppl don’t need to know about it ?, esp my grandparents Bc “it would be a huge shock for them and I don’t think they really need to know. They’d love you anyways but who knows how much shock they can take” ??

Yes, right! That’s how most of our experiences have been, at best. That anon is super lucky and I hope she tells her mom how a bunch of random people online think she’s really great and how we all wish we had someone like that in our lives. 🙂
