I'm sorry to hear your mother isn't accepting 🙁 I haven't told my mom yet and I'm afraid that's how she'll react. But don't listen to her because you don't need the hate man, you need the love!! It takes a lot of courage to come out and say that this is who you really are. You're completely laying yourself out there and hoping that people will accept you for who you are. I think that your family is the most difficult just because you've known them your whole life. They're some of the people you care about the most, and it's hard when they won't accept you. It's unfathomable for someone you love so much to deny you the right to happiness. But like I said dude don't listen to her, you're super awesome just the way you are 🙂 And don't give up!!! It'll get better! I know it's hard to wait for that because it seems like it'll take forever, but it's gonna be so awesome when it does!! You've got the rest of your life to find some ladies! Or gentlemen! Or both, whatever you're into!! haha You've got this man, just don't give up 😀
