Parental visit
« on: September 02, 2007, 10:13:13 pm »

So my parents came to visit today and I knew I was going to try to tell them about me(us) again. I had started to tell them some time ago but they got distracted before I could really get into it. This time we had plenty of time and privacy.

I don't really think it went so well. It seemed like your standard reaction I read all the time, lots of questions, telling me somewhat that I'm mistaken until I demonstrate my resolve on the matter. I think it came as quite a shock although I pointed out a number of things from my childhood that kind of points at it. And maybe I'm just paranoid but I've always been their favorite child (in my head atleast) and I'd hate for them to think I was not stable. I'm not sure how it took and I feel like they'll just kind of shrug and that will be the last I hear of it although their opinion of me may be tainted or broken.

I just don't know and I'll worry about it for many days I imagine. Doubt and worry are horrible things to be stuck with. You ask people how they feel about something like this and you just don't know if you can trust their words that everything is cool.

I hope this works out.
On the positive side, whatever damage I could have caused has already been done. Now we wait and see how things pan out.

I hope it works out for all of you.  I think it's a good sign that there were no immediate displays of panic.



Peace,

Well I think your parents accept both him(Marq) and her(Mia) eventually they just need some time to digest what you have told them.

Yes apparently it went a lot better then I thought.
I recieved a card from my mom a couple days ago and it essentially said that she loves and supports me entirely and that Mia is welcome in our family. It meant a lot to me and put my mind at ease on the subject. I'm glad I decided to tell them last weekend.

We'll see how things progress from here.
Yay!
