    Hi there,
    some of you might remember my "confused teenager's rant" back some time in December. Well, in case anyone is interested, here's an update:

    Most of the time, I feel okay/comfortable with who I am now. Came out to one of my school friends, at first it was a bit awkward but now I get on fine with her again. I have found some new friends (two of them lesbians) who are great, supportive people.
    After being very very insecure about coming out to my mum I finally did it some days ago. She wasn't all that surprised, hehe. Of course, she wasn't thrilled either, but mostly because "It's not an easy way". She said she wanted me to be happy and to be with somebody I truly love. :)
    And when I joked: "Isn't it great, you've got two daughters and still get the chance to get a son AND a daughter in law" she even seemed to become quite fond of the idea, lol. "Well, it certainly brings some more diversity into our family" is what she said. I'm sooo happy she reacted so well. Although knowing she knows still feels a bit strange somehow.
    Oh, and I'm gonna join a local glbt youth group soon.

    Ok, so this may be a kinda pointless thread, but I just wanted to share because everything seems to be going SO well for me atm. :)

    Love, Rain

    Yeah, all of my friends found out this past week.

    Not exactly on purpose, but they're all very cool about it.

    Actually, they could care less. Which is the type of reaction I was hoping for.

    Hehe, that's good. If I may ask, if not "on purpose", how did they find out then?
