I go through this all the time. People at work know I have a daughter so they assume I am married to a man lol. But when they see me with my GF they get so surprised. I have had people at work stop talking to me because of this, Except on Fridays when they need to get their check lol. I never take the time to explain to…

I'm glad I took this decision but it is very stressful. What they say they are mad about is that I am going to ruin my daughters life and that I took her away from them. I let them know I was leaving but I left when they were not home because I knew how things would get if I waited until they were all home. So right now…

Thank you! It's just hard when I keep getting all those messeges from everyone and I hate it that they make me feel like Im the one doing something wrong.

Yes I agree and if that what she wants then we wont be part of her life

I really don't understand either. Just last night my sister text me and told me that I was a selfish b**** that was hurting everyone around me especially my daughter. She told me she did not want to know anything about me ever again, she just wants to know about my daughter and that she was going to make me pay for what Im…

I know exactly what you are going through, because this is what I have been dealing with but it is my family who does not accept my girlfriend because they think it's her "fault", it's ridiculous. No one in my family is really talking to me except when they need to complain about something but I have to be with who makes…

I agree! to me everything is so normal and I'm happy but everyone else is so concerned that I'm going to get hurt. I can get hurt if it's a male or female so that has nothing to do with it. I hate it that they think that because it's a relationship between 2 people of the same sex it can't be something serious. They said…

I am hoping this is the same for my parents but it seems impossible to me for my mom to even think about it. My family has always been involved in church so it makes it worse because she says that is not what I have learned.

Yes that is what my mom said, she asked me what she had done wrong and that she was very sorry for it. I told her you did nothing wrong, it has nothing to do with what you did. You are right about my health I better start caring more about myself because I have not been feeling too well with all this. Thank you so much for…

I wish my family would have supported me, but this isn't true in my life either.

Yes! thats what everyone told me "you are just confused". This is affecting my daughter because she sees Im not happy. Before my family found out they always toldl me how they were so proud of what a good mom I was and not all of a sudden I'm the worse mom and they want me to leave here with them. I don't see how they can…

Thank you, that is what I'm going to do. It really hurts me that they are acting like this because we were always so close and now they treat me like I'm not worth anything but it's time for me to be happy!

I wish my family was as understanding as you are:flowerforyou:

Thank you, it was a hard decision because I was scared of her reaction but I just thought it would be better to tell her the truth.

Thank you I will look into this book, I think it will help her

Thank you for sharing this with me. It was very hard and I did tell her that she was the most important person here and whatever she wants to know or wants to tell me she can be confortable telling me. This morning I asked her if she would tell me what was bothering her and she just told me, nothing mom I'm ok. I asked her…

I loved it! Thank you!

Thank you !

I did finally tell her that I love her but she needs to respect my decisions and of course she was not happy at all. She told me she was not going to let me ruin my daughter life but I guess that is her problem.

Thank you! All your support helps me a lot!:smile:

Thank you so much for sharing this video! I can't believe your own family can hurt you like this. This is the reason why I have not came out to my family, except for 2 of my sisters and one of them had a bad reaction like this. I wish people could understand our feelings.

I love this group as well, I feel comfortable expressing my ideas and I am thankful for all the support

Thank you for your advice! It makes me feel better

Thank you!

:flowerforyou: Awsome!! Congratulations!!!

Hearing your experience helps me a lot in all the questions I have about how my daughter might react. Thank you for sharing
