Should I come out of the closet?

[SamoanLawyer]

what are you doing in the closet? shouldnt your grow be in there?

SamoanLawyer Reviewed by SamoanLawyer on 09-14-2005. Should I come out of the closet? Most of my family knows I'm gay, but I still havent told my dad. Hes very religious and would probably freak out of his mind if I him told I'm gay, and that I wont ever marry a woman. (Marriage and having kids is soooo important in Indian culture) What should I do? Should I wait until I'm on my own before telling him, or should I never tell him? Some of my gay friends say that coming out is very empowering, and that I'm basically lying to my dad by not telling him. I respond by telling them Rating: 5

hhaha ^^^^ thats made me laugh...you should wait till you moved out at least so he cant threaten to kick you out if hes really not that undertanding..bug then again it SUCKs to live in a lie...makes everything much ahrder

Yes come out of the closet. I think they should resepct you for the person you are; not your preference in relationships. Family is Family in my books regardless

As a parent of similiar adult-aged kids, I have nothing but unconditional love for them. They could tell me anything and my love for them wouldn't change. Of course, I also respect their privacy, so I wouldn't be hurt or disappointed if they chose to withhold such information.

My mum said that she would disown any of her children if they were gay.She is very strict i believed that.When she found out that i had been with a girl nothing changed between us like i thought it would.She loves me more than ever maybe she just thought it was acrazy stage for me i dont know and she knew i was very unhappy with the man in my life who she seen with her own eyes was not a nice person at all.She probably preferred me being with a girl than with him i dont know we dont talk about it because it is a part of my life that is over now.
