Blah
 

So I'm hanging with a guy tonight. That's awesome and all, but my mom is very unhappy.

She had been asking me questions about the guy and I'd been honest about everything. Gave her his name, where he works, that he's gay, etc. She was fine up until that last part. Then the first words out of her mouth were "You promised, J-P." She misunderstood what I promised. I promised NOT to actively look for someone to date and that I'd try to avoid relationships, but I told her I can make no guarantees.

I reminded her what I actually said and agreed to and she got angry, saying I was twisting my words, etc. She told me that I have two choices: I can go to work and school or I can "continue to live your lifestyle." I told her that it's very much possible for me to have friends of varying backgrounds and still be able to go to school and work. She told me that she could not tolerate me "living your lifestyle" over and over. I kept explaining that it's possible for two gay guys to just be friends and not try to hook up. She didn't believe me and then she threw a fun tidbit at me.

"You were raised in this household to know what's right and wrong." I told her that I was raised to believe what she thought was right and wrong. Her rebuttal was "That's not true, you had church, you went to Catholic school." I told her that those were going to be biased sources and that I'm old enough to make my own decisions of what's right and wrong.

In the end she gave me her ultimatum of "Stay here and go to work and school or continue being gay."

What a way to really fuck up a potentially awesome and good day.

suddenly your signature makes sence.

Actually, my signature is anti-fisting, which is the act of putting your fist into a vaginal or anal cavity.

But yeah, I guess it could apply here.

She reminds me of my aunt. I hate my aunt.

I just wish my mom would show me the same respect I show her.

hows your father? i would think it would be harder for a father to support his gay son then a mother.

He doesn't know. He'd probably come down from South Carolina to break my neck or something.

ouch thats gotta hert

Just goto school, work, and get to where you can support yourself. Then you can probe all the anuses you want.

It's no longer about that. It's a matter of her telling me that I can do what I want unless it involves other gay people. It's asinine, controlling, and a double-standard.

I will probably do that if i heard my son is gay.

lol! Welcome back, Osmoses! You're always funny. KJ, you've got a place to live. If that's her rules, as lame as they may be, you can't do much about it.

Yeah, thanks for reminding me. I'm gonna look for a roommate or something.

I'll be your roomie!

What the hell kind of crap is that? "Quit being gay".

That is the most retarded crap I have ever heard and you should have told her to quit being heterosexual lol.

Your mother is a mere tool to her church and it's a shame that she won't be able to recover from it. Not without something short of God or Jesus magically appearing and telling her otherwise. At least that is how she comes across.

That's pretty much correct.

She also told me if I were to go last night, not to bother coming home. How loving can she be?

My mom wont give 2 shits if im gay. lol, yesterday she thought i was, but i told her i wasnt, she kept talkin so i hit her.

That sucks that she doesn't accept you for who you are. But I guess you'll just have to live with her until you can get your own place and whatnot.

ouch. your mom sounds like an uptight bitch (no offence there) it isn't like a switch you can turn off and on. church/religion push so much bullshit into peoples heads. but i'm sure she'll end up accepting it in the end and get over it.
