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

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, after weeks of thinking and playing every outcome possible in my head, I told my parents I'm gay. My dad nodded and didn't even look up from his book; my mom told me to go to the doctor if it starts to itch. 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, as an April fools day joke, I decided to tell my mom and dad that I was gay. After an awkward silence, my mom looks at me, smiles, and says, "well, we have known for a while." She wasn't joking. FML
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
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 finally worked up the courage to tell my mom that I'm gay. She sympathetically patted my back and told me I don't need to make up excuses for me being so unattractive to women. 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. Their response was basically, "Oh, you’re coming out? But we’ve known for years. It was obvious, so obvious we never knew you were in the closet in the first place." FML
Today, I finally decided to tell my parents I was a lesbian. They spent the next few hours reading me the bible. FML
Today, I told my friends I had been hiding something that I wanted to come clean on. My one friend responds by saying, "FINALLY you come out of the closet. It's about time." I'm not gay. I was just going to tell them my parents were getting a divorce. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Major invasion of your privacy, sure. But at least they didn't freak out and were totally fine about it. Plus, they waited until you were ready to tell them rather than confront you when they figured it out through snooping...gotta give them credit for that!

lol my little sister narced on me to my mom. I wasnt ready to tell her... got a phonecall asking when she was gunna meet my 'special friend' .. parents shouldnt snoop makes me glad my parents arent so computer savvy. also i enjoyed reading some of the comments here... ignorant, hatefull, and moderated. i for one dont believe in pushing my sexualty on others (Ie pride day.. thats a whole new basket of worms though) what i do in the privacy of my home/ property is mine and my lovers business, noone elses. everyones entitled to an opinion kn a topic, right wrong ignorant or arrogant its still an opinion hpws thos for another kicker... i a gayan dont believe in gay marriage. (again a whole different basket). does that make me self loathing? no am i a closet case? no. do i hide who i am? no. its what i believe if they wamna hate, then let them hate, doesnt change who i am. just makes them look like idiots

Ooh my parents did the same thing. When I was seeing my first therapist after getting a computer, she asked my dad if I watched ****. He replied that I did, "but it's okay. It was the right kind of ****." He would not have been supportive, to say the least.

It was simple, no fuss. That's what any LGBT person could hope for.
