How to come....out?

Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
I dunno if Relationships is the right board for this <IMG alt="image" SRC="biggrin.gif" border="0">

For a while now I've been 'out' to my friends, they've all accepted it and still see me as me <IMG alt="image" SRC="smile.gif" border="0"> But recently more and more peole have told me that their parents know and Im getting increasingly worried that they are going to hear it from someone else and not me, but I dont know how to go about it

suggestions have included shocking them with something else and then doing it, plastering male pics on my walls or joining as many male internet porn sites as possible in the off chance one of them will send tons of Junk mail

SO how should I go about it??

    Right, what you need to do is sit down with them and come out with it straight. Make them a cup of tea and say "Mum, Dad, I've got something I need to tell you".

    It's the best way I think. If they find the posters and porn then they'll probably just be concerned and sit you down with a talk and that'll just be embaressing.

    They love you and I'm sure they'll understand. Good luck! <IMG alt="image" SRC="cool.gif" border="0">
