Completely In The Sun

As of right now, both my parents know I'm gay.
I told my mom tonight.
She asked me to show her in the Bible where its okay and I showed her in Samuel about Johnathan and David's relationship.
She asked me if I was going to start dressing differently? Ummm no, not with these good boobs.
She asked me if I was bi since I dated boys and I explained that I did that because I thought I was supposed to.
She cried.

I told her it was fine. I'm fine. I'm not struggling. I'm not sad. I've been dating women.
I told her about some of them.
I told her that I just don't want a man in my bedroom.
She was like "But you want a woman in there?"
I said yes but there is so much more to a relationship than sex.
She tried to get a little too in my business and I had to back her out at this point.
She asked about a few guys specifically...I explained again.

I felt bad that she cried but I feel like that was because she's more concerned about what's going on around me than me. I'm not going anywhere, Mom. I'm fine.

She said I was always a bit obsessive about my friendships. And I highlighted that all those women weren't just my friends.

I explained that one day I want a wife. I'll ask a girl to marry me. She asked so you'll be wife and what? I was like wife and wife.

She said I shouldn't share this. Then she asked who knew. I told her....everyone at work, my friends. She asked about my mentor. I told her she knew and was fine with it.

My dad still thinks we're confused about who we are. That we're girls and thus should like boys. And I'm like nope, no confusion.

So yea, my parents know I want a wife. Let's see how tomorrow shapes up.
