But then he sat down at my desk & we talked for a little bit, about the usual stuff. Who else knew, when did *I* know, etc.Īnyway, after a little bit, he got up to leave & then I went over to him & hugged him for a long time. He hugged me back & said it’s all good.Īnd ever since then, it’s been better than good. He’s actually REALLY cool with gay things (with a LOT of persuasion, I actually got him to come with me to a gay pride parade like 2 years later.
how cool is that! he might come with me to another one NEXT year).īut the best time was when I came out to our parents (well, best time for having my bro be there for me). We were eating dinner one night & I don’t remember what we were talking about, but it lead into gay stuff & I remember my brother actually just kind of letting his foot rest against mine, to just let me know he was there for me if things turned ugly. I ended up coming out (don’t quite remember the conversation) & my parents were really unhappy about it. But the whole time, my brother was defending me, sticking up for me & just there for me, which I was so grateful for.
