LGBT Ranty/Hugs thread

Former Member

Hey everyone happy pride month! 

Coc0mac has made a positive story thread so I've decided to make a Ranty and hugs thread.

This can be used for any pride month lockdown sadness as well as any issues LGBT and family/relationship related x

I’m gay (that’s only the second time I’ve admitted it ) the only person I have ever told was my mum who then told me to never let those words leave my mouth again and that I was lucky it was her I told and not my dad.

Mum has now partnered me with her best friends daughter. We are both 17 and have been in a relationship for 2 years. I think that we both know there’s no feelings there but don’t want to admit that to each other.

My family and family friends are snobby and feel they are better than everyone else. They look down at those in the lgbtq+ community and believe men should be with women only. They are always on my back about working in a car garage, riding a bike and having tattoos. They wanted me to go to university and have a “professional job” and say that I have ruined myself with the way I behave.

I don’t think I’ll ever be able to be “fully” me because I know that if I was my family would disown me and despite their ridiculous views, they do mean a lot to me. 

But still, I am gay and that’s nothing that I’m able to change.

Huge hugs to you @Past User

You truly deserve to express who you are and exactly who you want to be, and to be accepted and loved for that. I hope that one day you are able to feel this. Sending lots of love and support to you in the meantime
