One time someone wrote us back to say how lovely they were.

Wow, thats a great story ...very script like for a movie...

Thanks Sum Sum I just finished a Skype with Redpepper's family and my parents..very cool!

I have been out to my parents and family for 13 out of 17 months. They live across the country however so that makes them connecting with the reality of my chosen family less real. As I am visiting them, I set up a Skype with my parents and Redpepper, Polynerdist, and their son. We had a great face to face chat. my parents got to experience the love we all have for each other. my family is real to them now. They have faces and my parents can't help but have trust in the health of our relationship and care for the people I love so dearly. I feel very happy tbat I can speak so freely about my family now and see understanding in their eyes They are now considered my family and an extension of my happiness which is all any parent wants for their children.

I am a tad jealous with the whole outing thing. er- turned on : )

Since "we" are new, this topic is JUST now coming up.

Except for my work situation, I don't see a big problem if and when that is what we choose to do. BUT the work situation is a BIG issue. I get scared just thinking about it.

No point in dealing with the devil at this point.
For now, I will just enjoy your liberation.

Seriously though, coming out at work is not a big priority for me. Everyone knows about Redpepper but only a few know about the dynamic we have. I wanted to come out to family because I need to be able to share what I do in my life and who is important to me. Why come out if it makes things weird at work?

We are definitely enjoying a new level of openness in my family. My parents and sisters ask about my chosen family now. And it is out of concern instead of curiosity...although they still have lots!
