I always thought that I liked women over men. I just dated guys because I was taught that was not right dating the same sex. I dated this one guy for about over a year and nothing felt right with him. Then one summer I met the girl of my dreams. We have been together for four years now. Neither of us told our parents because we did not know how they would act. Then I got in a car accident and my mom found out. When my mom found out my girlfriend called her parents and told them she was gay. My parents hated that I was gay. My mom always told me she never believed I was gay just my girlfriend. I then sat my mom down and told how much I cared and loved her. So when I turned 18 years old I moved out to live with my girlfriend and her parents. Her parents said they just have to accept it if they want to keep their daughter. My mom could not accept that I was gay until last Sept. when she died of cancer. Some of my family can stand the way I am but not all of them. I always wished my mom could have liked her before she was on her death bed. We are still living with her parents for the four years we have been together. We have been so happy together.
