    I am blessed because I had a grandmother who love me and my partner of now 22 years unconditionally. She told me before she died to be my true self no matter what other people said or did.

    I had an aunt (my Mom's sister) I was very close to save the day,and my life for me. My mom was looking at some pictures left out from the night before of me with my partner and started to freak. My aunt saw them, calmed her down and told her I was the same person she always loved and don't let this change things. God bless my aunt!

    "So you're gay." Couldn't that wait until morning? Way to ruin a romantic moment. Parents can be unbelievably selfish, she just thought I'm gonna put on my wicked witch hat, traumatize these innocent kids, destroy all possible timelines in which they might end up together, because I'm unhappy with my son's sexuality, and his happiness is not even on my radar.

  • @globalman
    @globalman 10 років тому +33

    Wise words from a handsome young man.... it is a pity more people don't recognise the value of older people and the elderly in society. His grandmother being a good example. A further note..... if you are making out in the garden of your parents house then we call that a set up. An unconscious desire to be found out. I admire his sense of self and doing this at 15.
    Throughout my life I never got really why parents etc. always turn things around as though you are doing something to them. They do not figure into the equation.

    • @rondykes4372
      @rondykes4372 9 років тому +2

      I totally agree.. Parents seem to think it's all about them and you did something to them, when they forget the challenges and pain that their kids are and have dealt with. The "unconditional love" my parents preach about definitely has conditions they won't accept.

    • @Mcfreddo
      @Mcfreddo 3 роки тому +2

      Grandma probably has all seen it before in her life and very well may know of someone else gay in the family tree and saw them as good people. For whom, they have always been accepting through the lens of real life, that everyone just wants to be happy with whom they love.

    I applaud grandparents like Ronnie's because my grandmother was the same way. She never stopped parenting her children no matter how old she got. If my mother/aunts/uncles did or said something she thought was wrong she let them know it. She was that way till the day she died.

    What a sensible grandmother ! thoguh what really makes me think is how people already know things but lie to themselves, like my mom did the same (she didn't cry, in fact she was happy because I told her) she couldn't figure out if I was really gay or looked like somewhat gay because I was shy. And until I told her she didn't fully perceive as gay.

  • @Drewski918

    My Coming out was much Like yours, terrible. Coming out In 1985 just wasn’t done. My Dream of being a History Teacher was dead once everyone knew I Was Gay. I have tried to move on, but nothing has ever fulfilled my dream of being that teacher that could show young people history isn’t boring, it’s the story of the human experience. Trust Me, It Does Not Get Better.

    People always think the older generations condemn homosexuality, but if you notice, it's mainly older men. Both my grandmothers support me, and I think it's because women of that age know what it feels like to be looked down upon and be discriminated against, since women were just cooks and cleaners for men back then.

      Sorry your family doesn't accept you. I am 50 and have been with the love of my life for 22 years. My religous parents will never except that I am gay and two men could have a loving and stable relationship. Years ago I told them that we will never speak of it again and they can believe
      the way they want and they respect that. I have come to the realization that it doesn't matter that they are so backwards about having a gay son. It is their loss because if they only knew what kind of a person he is. Live your life as your true self no matter what people say of do. It is hard at times but it is so worth it. Keep your chin up. I wish you all the best!

    This speaks volumes. There are so many young people who think that all the problems will be over when all the old people die. They think that all the hate and intolerance comes from the elderly. They, for some reason, fail to see it is the young that are BEATING the young. Things are not better with the younger generation...maybe worse, considering they have less respect for human life with the knives and guns etc. It used to be fights. Now it is murders.

      they way he describes the confrontation is a combo of suprise, anger and immediate dissapproval from the mom. that is conveyed without a period or comma in just one sweeping exclamation. the question, "so you're gay!", is actually and obviously RHETORICAL simply because she catches him in the act of being gay, thus dissolving any requirement for an answer. u are talking to a shrink who studied film who is also gay. just trust me please and stop being such a millennial.

    Your Mother is dramatic. Your Grandmother must have known, but the fact that she was going through her last life battles, she preferred focusing on your happiness for your age. You are a respectful son, but a bit too giving for your own good. You should have taken your boyfriend in with you, to talk to your Mother. You were going through a lovely moment in your life at a beautiful age! I would have liked to be in your shoes, but sadly, not in his! He must have felt rejected. Moreso that he was in your house & you were being told off by your parent. What happened between you both after the incident?
