I’m not really that sure why I’m posting this as it really doesn’t affect anything, maybe just to see if anyone else has been in the same position and if I handled it ok? I was a bit taken aback today during a dinner table chat about a young relative going on a date, we were discussing this and I asked DD if she thought she might have dates with boys at the same age, to which she casually replied no because I’m gay.
Although not what I was expecting to hear I don’t think I appeared shocked and just calmly said oh ok so you think you’ll like girls then?
Dd replied that she knows she does now, we had a relaxed conversation with me possibly rambling a little about gay friends I had at school and also saying that I’d always be happy with whatever makes her happy, which is completely true, has anyone else been in this position? Especially with a child so young?
