Yep it's the same way with me, Ameika. It's a knee jerk reaction

"stop apologizing" "oh sorr.. ok"

I'm not actually canadian, but people seem to think I am because of the polite way I talk and the way I soften my vowels when I speak. >>

I don't know if it was denial... or because it was a joke for the past two years that me and Liz were dating and didn't know it.

Sometimes things are just hard to compute. It may seem like one thing is intended, but you can't be certain.

I suppose. xD

My mom took my coming out pretty well, though. xDD

Hyena: well when some one likes a person and then they get hit with information like that they tend to deny it at first even if they joked about it for a while and then having it confirmed >.>

Cardinal: yea my dad looks at me funny cause he will say things like the house didn't get clean, my back hurts, stupid tooth ack and i will just say i am sorry i am sorry

that is good if i was anything other then straight my parents would kill me they are mormans but i am straight and well i guess i am more accepting then they are

That's awesome. I think that most parents must know on some level. It can take them by surprise, but they had to have an inkling, somewhere in their minds...

My mom: "Oh honey, we already knew."

My dad: -puts money in a trust fund for the happy couple-

O.O who your parents are just wow better then mine i have to say lol

That's really is awesome, then. You're lucky to have had parents that took it so well.

Re: my previous statement: Of course, that's just conjecture. I'm not a parent, nor am I gay, so I've not had to come out to my parents. But as a somewhat observant person, I'd think the parent-child bond is such that a subconscious sense of these things would develop.

Anywhoo. It's getting a bit late for me. I think I need to turn in,.

I can't complain about my parents. Ever.

My brother, on the other hand... he's a dick. And therefore I can complain about him.

However... I think now that complaining about being able to hear my non-roommates have sex in the shower will suffice for all my complaints for the moment.

-turns up the angry german music-

They aren't your roommates (not that that would excuse it, given it's a communal shower) and yet they are shagging in your shower? Bad form. I'd be wanting to give them a piece of my mind.

lol wow yea i would soooo be telling them off but yea i have to say my parents have done told me if i was anthing other then straight that they would disown me and that was back when i was bi-curious and was doubting my sexuality i still think that i might be bi sometimes >.>

Coming to grips with your own sexuality is no easy process. There's no rule that says you have to figure it out soon, Ameika. Just let it come at it's own pace. Personally, I'm of the mind that there is a spectrum of sexuality, and I just happen to be at the mostly straight end.

Well, Cait is Liz's best friend so she's staying here while she's in town. And Tripp was evicted last month and he's been staying here with his roommate Will in Joels' room because Will and Joel are 'dating.'

....aaaaand Cait and Tripp have been spending her entire stay completely glued to each other's faces.

Ameika: A lot of parents do fly off the handle on that topic, but there's usually at least one family member that stands up for 'the black sheep' and tells them that they're being ridiculous about it.



Dude, all I know is that I had a crush on Liz for like... three years. And she asked to be my girlfriend AFTER we started cuddling... We do pretty much everything backwards. xD

well that does make a lot of since but my parents are mormons and the only one who will stand up for me is my sister only cause we are really close like best friends close and yea i just feel a bunch of preasure to figure it out soon >.>

Well, mull it over for yourself. If you think you are straight, but might be bi, perhaps going on a few dates with men would give you something with which to gauge your reactions. Data.

I kind of eased them into it. Lots of hints and stuff. By the time it came for me to actually say it, it was no surprise and they were just glad that I was being honest with them.

I really should be off to bed now you guys. It's been nice chatting to you (and getting my gold count, to boot)

lol yea but i live in the middle of no where and none of the guys here appeal to me like it is eh whatever

night Cardinal!!!

Night, Biggles!

Ameika: I was like that in high school. And then I dated girls and it was alright.

Hyena: yea the girls hear are pretty but they don't really appeal to me either.....maybe i am just one of those people not attractted to anyone >.>

Maybe that's true, too. ^^

My friend Leslie is non-sexual and she seems to be pretty happy without getting into relationships. But honestly I think the most important thing you can do for your road to self-discovery is to leave the usual surroundings and meet some new people. And if you're still not attracted to anyone, then that's cool. =DD

yea i moved to a different state still feels the same to me lol i keep joking that i am going to die a lonely cat lady so far it is comming true lol

I like kitties. =D

Everyone loves kitties. Except for dog people. They like dogs for some ungodly reason.

lol yea i have four well only two really belong to me i have a tuxedo cat named creepers and he reminds me of my dad and then i have Hana and she is siemese-ish i mean she has it in her and you can tell but she has strips like a calico would anyways she reminds me of my niece then there is Enkeli and he is the huge black cat that is dog size like bigger the a chiwawha but not big enough to be bigger then a small dog he reminds me of my brother andthen there is Tiger Lily and she is Enkeli's mother and she was born with no tail and she has strips and is grey andshe is half saiemse cause her mom was full saimese but anyways she reminds of my sister who is abitch and i don't get along with her >.>
