It is 7:55pm I am going to tell my parents I’m bi in 5 minutes I am so fucking nervous it is ridiculous. I’m listening to Born This Way. I was born this way. There is no other way. I will tell them that I am bi. They will deal with it. I’m going to stand up turn off the t.v. Say that there’s something I want them to know and accept about me. I know we don’t have the best relationship. But I want them to accept me for this. I’ll tell them that I hope it won’t change anything but I need them to understand me and this is part of me. 1 minute left. I am bi. I’ll say it. And I’ll imagine Lady GaGa standing beside me holding my hand. I’ll imagine Born This Way in my head and I will tell them. I will do this and it’ll be a huge weight off my shoulders. I’m going to come out to my parents. It’s 8:00pm. Wish me luck… <3 It’s 8:42pm and I’ve been either standing in the kitchen trying to raise the courage, or standing near the T.V. They are watching a film. It’s impossible. I have to wait until it’s done which is around 9:00pm. I am going to do this tonight. My heart is beating and Lady GaGa is my only strength. I will do this and it will be fine. I am brave. I will come out. I will do this tonight. It’s now or never. GaGa taught me to be proud of who I am and who I love is a part of that. I can’t hide the people I like from them forever. I will do it now. With the courage of Mommy Monster, and all the little monsters out there I will manage. I am Bi, I am proud and I am brave. <3 The film is over. It’s 8:45pm Here I go. I will do it now. Now is my window of opportunity. I love you all the people who have helped me get to this point. I love you GaGa for giving me this strength. Here I go. <3 It’s 8:55pm and I DID IT!! I feel SOOO MUCH BETTER! THEY ACCEPT ME!! AHHH I’M OVER THE MOON! :D My mum got all excited and started clapping. That was a little unnerving but my dad understood that I wanted to tell them something important! I thanked them for letting me go to GaGa and told them what she means to me- being yourself, and being proud of yourself. Then I told them. “I am Bisexual.” There was a pause… and then my mum said “That’s all!? That’s magnificent!” Then there was hugging, and crying from me, and hugging and then just pure happiness! I still want to cry a bit, but mainly out of happiness and relief. It was not nearly as bad as I thought! Ah my lord!! Thank you GaGa for giving me the strength to liberate myself. Thank you my friends, thank you Adam for helping me master my nerves. Thank you everyone who loves me for me and doesn’t care who I love! <3 <3
