Story #1155

When I came out, it was to my mom and stepdad over a dinner of hot wings and cheese fries.
Me: I have something to tell you.
Mom: What?
Me: I don’t know how to say this.
Mom: You have a girlfriend.
Me: Close. *sigh* This is hard.
Mom: Just say it.
Me: I’m queer.
Mom: So you’re a lesbian?
Me: No. I don’t really want to get into it right now.
Mom: You have to educate us.
Me: Well, I date boys and girls and everything in between.
Mom: Oh. Okay. I love you.
