came out to parents!
i (f20) feel incredibly lucky to have two religious parents that were pretty accepting. i expected more scrutiny or denial as they are both devout catholics.
my mother was wholeheartedly supportive and said that i should explore and see what makes me happy.
my dad, although more conservative, said he loves me unconditionally and that he supports me, and said he cant judge my own journey with God. he did say he does have a preference (toward me marrying a man), but ultimately understands it’s who i am. pretty cool
i feel bad that i cant fulfill their picket fence typical family + grandchildren dreams though. they deserve the world and i wish i could give them more. :( i feel very sad about that
but i feel pretty relieved that i came out! just wanted to share
