Today, I introduced my girlfriend to my parents. My mother turned to me and said, "Wait you're actually gay? I thought you were just saying that to piss off your father." I came out to her when I was 16, and have confided in her about my past relationships. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I introduced my girlfriend to my family for the first time. My mother's immediate reaction was, "We didn't know you were gay!" No mom, she really is a girl. FML
Today, at 18, I finally told my mom I was gay. She spent the rest of the day bringing up my "future wife" at every possible chance she had. FML
Today, I decided to introduce my girlfriend to my parents by telling them that we were gonna have a very special guest for dinner. While my mom was preparing the meal she asked, "What does he like?" I'm straight. My parents thought different. FML
Today, I finally let my parents meet a boyfriend of mine for the first time ever. My dad mentioned how he was happy to finally meet him, because for the past 4 years he'd thought I was gay. FML
Today, I came out as lesbian and introduced my new girlfriend to my family. My mom angrily told me that I should have waited until my grandparents had died before coming out, and that I was "extremely disrespectful" for making this announcement. I honestly thought everyone would be fine with it. FML
Today, I came out to my mom. I had an epic speech planned, and when I tried to tell her, it all fell apart and I started crying and just said, "I'm gay." After a few seconds silence, my mom sighs and says, "Duh." FML
Today, I came out to my parents and siblings as gay. They were very accepting and asked me why I waited until I was 25 to do so. I didn't have the heart to tell them it was their own homophobic remarks that kept me closeted since I realized it at 14, and that a previous coming-out to a parent was dismissed as 'a phase'. FML
Today, I finally got the courage to tell my parents that I'm gay. My mom said "Yeah, we know." When I asked how they knew, my dad, without looking up from the tv, said, "We've been monitoring your Internet history." FML
Today, I introduced my new boyfriend to my parents. Everyone knows he's into the emo scene, but this didn't stop my dad from slowly looking him up and down, then saying, completely deadpan, "You never told us you were a lesbian, honey." FML
Today, I told my mom that I’m a lesbian. She was fine with it, supported me 100%, and it was a huge relief, until she followed up with, “Until you find a husband, then you’ll obviously have to stop all that.” The reason I even told her is because my girlfriend just proposed to me, and we’re engaged.

I'm afraid this will happen when I meet my girlfriend's parents. I'm sorry, OP.

She thought you had the past relationships to piss off your dad as well.

So whoever is saying that being gay goes against christianity, and that you can't be gay and christian: you are wrong. Being gay is a sin to God but it's just the same as lying, cheating, stealing, being gluttonness, etc., which I'm sure you've done before. Being a christian is NOT about judging others and it's about loving one another. So quit making us christians look bad. Just because this girl is gay, doesn't mean she deserves to be treated poorly.

thank you... finally a christian that is not bashing on gays but instead asking other christians to love and and listens to god's teachings of treating everybody the same.

i dont see the problem is when we people are gay. do what u wish, why should i be telling you who you like is either wrong or right? i dunno why people have such a hard time dealing with it... get over it people, time to move of with the rest of the world. and what is more pathetic is when your parents dont approve, pretend they didnt hear you, thought u were joking or anything like that. this is your kid.. be supportive thats what they need not to be looked at as if they are an alien.
