One month ago, I started coming out to my best friends, after truly starting with my wife. I’m bi. In that month, I’ve come out to everyone in my family who matters to me, including my mother, the person I was most expecting to disown me the whole time.

She didn’t. She’s got a lot of questionable views, and supports hateful people. But when it came down to it, she said “Of course I accept you as you are, you are my son and I love you unquestionably.”

Hi, I’m bi, and I’m so happy to finally be out and be me.
