I understand exactly how you feel, My mother is very strict and religious, since I have come out to her she has hated the fact of my sexuality, and would call the police if i ever showed up on her doorstep, to make matters worse she tuned the entire of my relatives against me, so I now have 3 family members, me, my wife and my son, the main reasoning for her rection would be shock, she probably always pictured you in a white dress walking up to the alter to a man and producing grandchildren, there are to many possibilities, what I like to say is, Im not hurting anyone, im no rapist, no axe murderer or thief, so im not hurting anyone, this isnt a life style choice but part of who i am, you loved me before you knew, so why can't you now? Nothings changed and i am just being honest and want your acceptance .Hope this helps, if you ever want to ask me anything email me at mummas1@hotmail.com GOODLUCK!
