Welcome to Gaia! ::

I'm in bit of a conundrum. You see, my parents are divorced, not that that's the problem, and I just found out that my dad's bi.(and a bit of a perv to, come to think of it. One look at the persons internet history will tell you a lot about them.) My mother never gave me a straight reason for the divorce, and neither did my dad. So being as that I'm gay, I was thinking of coming out to my mom. But, apparentlt her tolerance was a bit of a facade.

One of her coworkers is gay, and she seemeed to get along with him just fine, so I thought she would be aright with it, but it turns out that she seems to think of it as some fatal disease, pitying whoever catches it.

While I do want to be accepted by her, I don't want to be pitied, or pampered as if every wish was my last. Also, if she knows that my dad is indeed bi, I don't want her to stop me from visiting him.

PLEASE HELP ME!!

That does seem like a good idea, but im not so sure. If he doesn't seem to want to tell me about the fact that he likes to get it on with dudes and dudettes, then he might be a bit ashamed, he does drink a bit. I mean, he knows that I'm really tolerant, just, not that I'm gay. I really like him though, he's always nice and he doesn't care if I speak my mind, and cuss.(my mom would glare at me balefully in public, then wait to hit me with something while in private stare )

That sounds like a good idea. Perhaps talking to your dad about it would be the better place to start off at.

In regards to the 'I don't want my mom to make me stop seeing my dad because he's bisexual' problem, I think you could just not tell her. And ask your dad how he thinks she would react. Even if they're not married anymore, he still was very close to her for x amount of years.

*huggles* of course we do, that's one of the main reasons we're here ^_^
