I am gay and have told a few friends. I am at the point where I really want to tell my parents because I feel myself distancing myself from them because I feel like I'm hiding who I am. The more I think about it the more I worry about it. My biggest fear is not rejection, because I know they will not hate me for it, but it is that I will have disappointed them somehow. Mom wants grandkids ya know, and keeps buggin me about why I haven't found a nice girlfriend yet. Sometimes I think she's doing it because she already knows and just wants me to tell her. Seriously, I haven't had a girlfriend in 6 years and have shown no interest in any woman whatsoever.
Anyway, any advice from someone who has dealt with similar situation or feelings. I plan on telling them soon, maybe even on national coming out day, which is next week right? I'm hoping for the best and planning on the worst, I don't think they will kick me out the house but I have a place to go if they do.
Thanks in advance!
