How you feel isn't really predictable or important. How you deal with it afterwards means everything. I mean, he's still your father...right? I would imagine he still loves you, wouldn't you agree? You may have to sit down with him and discuss your comfort level on situations that may arise. Hopefully you can work through this and still have a great relationship with your father.

He's still ur father.. nothing should change, just don't bring ur boyfriend around him??? Talk to him and ask him how he came he came to that conclusion and for how long and just let him u know u still luv him and to tell him to be careful, u know as far as protection is concerned...
Try to look @ it as a positive for having conversations... Gay guys give the best advice and they r soooo cool to be around...

My father passed away several years ago, but had he done that before passing, I would have still loved him. You can not change your feelings for someone over night, especially a parent, for them telling you that they are gay.

If you love someone unconditionally, you should accept them as they are. If you really think about it, he is and will always be your father no matter what. THAT you cannot change in life or death. So either you accept it and get over it or wear it as baggage for the rest of your life! I think we all have enough baggage.... so does anyone really need any more?

My husband had to deal with that. It has left an emotional scar permanently. But it's something he has learned to except. We see him for the holidays with his partner and it's different but you just get used to it. His dad came out 20 years ago. My husband was 11.

Not much one can do to change what one is born. In some instances one is unable to change who/what they are. But rather be the best person one can be. If one's father is a wonderful person, it shouldnt change anything.

Try to behave like an adult, thank him for his honesty and accept his sexual orientation because it doesn't change him. He's still the same person.
