How can I get my Mom to really support me?

I came out to my mother about two years ago and she told me she’ll support me no matter what, but then when I told her I had a new girlfriend last year she asked me “When the Hell is this phase of your’s going to be over?!!” Now I have a new girlfriend and I want mum to be as happy as I am. How can I do this?

Answer #1

it`s called being a guy, a straight one. u have to ask ur mother what does she mean by that and seriously expalin it to her that until u get married or settle down or watever, dating is going to be part of u life

Answer #2

Next time she does that, answer “What phae? Me being straight? What, you want me to be gay and come back home with a new bf?” (just kidding…^^)

It’s called experimenting. Everyone goes out with more than 1 person in his/her entire life! Because you need to learn new stuff you won’t be able to learn with the same person, no matter how hard you love this person! So it’s better to go from girl to girl right now than when you’ll be fiancéd or even worse, married.

If it really disturbs your mom, try to tlak bout it with her, try to understand why. Then if it doesn’t work, just stop telling her everytime u have a new gf! from time to time, maybe…

Good Luck!

Friendly, G.

Answer #3

let her know that it is NOT a phase and you are not into guys… and you never will be. this is somthing you are born with. and you cant change it, and that you need her support more than anything, im bi and i could never tell my mom. i kinda know how u feel..

w.b.s.

Answer #4

just stick to who u are
