Story

I was caught by my highschool girlfriends mom and she forced me to tell my parents or else I couldn’t see her anymore so obviously I did and when I did my mom was devastated. She cried asked how I knew, asked if I’d kissed a girl, asked if I knew if it would pass. Then she forced me to tell my strict Catholic father who accused me of not being his daughter and threatened to not let me go to college and also compared me and my girlfriend with pedophiles and people who have sexual relationships with animals (idk if there’s a name for it) so they made me break up with her and I dated a boy for 4 years after that but then I broke up with him and had to come out ONCE again to my mom cuz I am now 9 months into my new relationship with a girl I met in college (dad and extended family don’t know) but all my friends and my brother and my teachers and even coaches know. Guess dad will find out eventually again.
