Ok, well, I came out to my parents last weekend, and my Mom was like, "Ok." I asked her what she meant, and she told me that she had suspected for quite some time, especially when I didn't date in high school. (Small community, not many "out" people)
When I told my Dad, he didn't really say much. After a couple minutes of awkward silence, he said "Ok." Later, my Mom said he told her that he was disappointed in me. I decided to test the water a little by telling him that he could tell people (specifically his side of the family) and he changed the subject on me!!!
I figured it could be shock, but my Mom said that he wouldn't talk too much about it; other than to ask her how she felt about it, and whether or not she knew. He asked her if she was going to tell anyone, and my Mom said she would. After talking with my Mom again since, she said he hasn't really discussed it with her even though she tries to get him to talk with her.
Do you guys have any idea what I should do next?
