Long time

Holy i just realized how long its been since i've made a journal! To be honest though.... I forgot my password and couldn't remember it for the longest time! Hahah but im back, not like i posted a lot of journals anyways :p Also my life is pretty boring. Like my summer... all i've been doing is sitting at home watching movies. I've been really depressed lately and im not 100% sure why.

I guess the most "big" thing that happened over summer so far is i came out to my dad last night. Yeah okay, maybe it wasn't the best way to come out. But at least i did it! I thought it would run a lot smoother than what it did but all i can really do now is wait. So this is what happened:

I went to a festival with my friend. My friend and I were just walking around when we saw a face paint stand. Right away i knew i wanted a rainbow on my cheek. So i asked for one. And the girl went overboard! She put flowers and rainbows on BOTH my cheeks when i only wanted one... then she asked if i wanted "Pride" On my forehead. I wasn't really thinking and i really wanted it done... So i went for it.

Once i got home my dad was going crazy about my face. And was mad that i had rainbows and Pride written on me. He asked me why i had it and i simply said "Dad, im gay" He kindof gave me a disgusted look and walked away. Then when supper came, he didn't even call me, he got my sibling to. And all through supper not a word was spoken.

I find it really pathetic that he wouldnt even talk to me. Like honestly whats so bad about liking the same sex? Like to me its pretty fuckin' awesome but i guess its going to take some time for my dad to get use to it :/

In all fairness,

to your dad, he's likely still trying to process what you revealed to him. Sounds like he was taken aback a bit, understandably, so give him some time and I'm sure he'll want to talk about what you said to him in the very near future. I wish you good luck with that and hopefully he'll come around positively.

hehehe...

To be fair, though, it is a pretty funny coming out. I mean, two rainbows and PRIDE written across your head... good stuff.

You didn't tell him the first hour you figured it out, so give him some time.
