i recently came out to my mom, and she said she was very supportive of me, whatever i decide to do in life. but she did say she'd "rather me be straight" and was hoping that i am "just going through a phase." this was about 2 months ago. how do i talk to her about this? i should've done it when we were having the entire "coming out" talk. but i couldn't, cause she has a way with words to make you always sound wrong. help me out, i wanna tell her that this is not a phase. she thinks i might just be confused, cause i act 100% straight, like if you met me, you'd never know. i'm not too open about it, but if someone asks, i'll be completely honest. so, i just need some advice on telling her this isn't just a phase and when to bring it up, cause i dont wanna be just sitting there at dinner and then say, "hey, this is not a phase" etc.. what kind of conversation should i start with?
