Coming Out Can Be A Gamble
HOME | RELATED | JANUARY 30, 2013
(I’m at my boyfriend’s house. We were best friends, but fell in love pretty fast. We are gay, but he didn’t come out until today, so I’m there to support him. His father is sitting in the living room and surfing online, while his mother is right next to him knitting.)
Boyfriend: “Hey…um…I wanted to tell you that I’m gay. [Me] and I have been together for a long time.”
Father: *looking up and taking a deep breath* “So you are gay and [me] is your boyfriend?”
Boyfriend: “Yeah…” *visibly uncomfortable*
Father: *turning to mother* “You heard that? You owe me 20 Euro!”
