Hi all, first post here. I just wanted to ask opinions really. I'm in my late 20 s and after a lot of thought I have decided to come out and let the world know who I really am.
In order to fully accept this and be ready to date I've told my friends and family that I'm gay. I also spoke to my job and my daughters teacher, so that if the playground gossips get hold of it, or if she goes into school saying mummy is a lesbian, then we are covered.
However I had no intention of telling her until I had met a woman I wanted to introduce her to. But after a lot of thought I told her. One, because I want her to hear it from me, not someone else, two because I want her to know I have nothing to hide/ be ashamed of and nor does she. And three because if I don't meet the right person for say 5 years, it's gonna be more of a shock, right?
Well anyway.... She took it really really well, and only asked what colour hair I'd like my girlfriend to have?!
But I don't know if I did the right thing.... What do you all think?
