kristin?

About a month ago, I bought a bunch of new clothes using store credit I got from returning the engagement ring after my fiancé broke up with me. Mostly skinny jeans, some panties, a bra, a dress, a couple tops, some shorts. I made sure I had enough credit from the ring to cover it, but all that showed up on my parents' monthly bill, since the credit had been put on their JCPennys card. Lesson learned, get it on a gift card –_–
I couldn't think of anything else to say, so I told them the truth. They were the starting point for my new wardrobe. My dad didn't say anything, my mom said she still loves me, and that we'll get through this, asked some questions, and went to bed. Not at all how I wanted them to find out, don't really know what to expect from here, all this happened late last night. I'm mostly worried about my dad, he has enough to stress out about without this, me being his only son of 4 children, and our family being practically broke despite him working all the time...
On the plus side, I met this really cute girl at the mall Gamestop Monday, we have a lot in common and got along very well, came out to her the next day after she told me she's bisexual, and she's not just ok with it, she finds it very interesting. We went downtown together the next day, swapped footwear for a while (my black vans & her knee high Harley Davidson boots with corsets in the back, our shoes actually fit eachother). I'm so glad I met her when I did, she has all the qualities I was looking for, and going through this is so much easier when she's around. We're probably going to go see Paranorman sometime next week :3

Wish me luck, I'm going to need it :\

It's great you have found an ally or maybe more.  As for the parent situation, they will take a while to get used to things, after all they have known you all your life.  Hope it goes ok.

D*** girl, well how about that with a girl that's Bi.  I would sell my left foot for a girl that cool :D 
It's going to work out thought.  If they didn't throw a bible at you or say hurtful things they will come around, jsut give them time :)  My mom is one of my biggest supporters and it took her about a month to straiten it all out in her head.  Mind you I'm 28 so she really didn't see this coming.  but well. :)  Big hugs anyways :D
Live your life.

It has been a relief with them knowing, and my dad seems to be doing okay, just got back from going to Walmart with him. They both seem to be doing fine.

She really is great, no one has ever made me feel so special. I told her I thought we had something special, and she said the same :3
I know it's early, but we feel as though we were meant for each other. I've never been as happy as I am now. For once in my life, I feel like everything is going to be okay.
