Attention, we have a fly in the closet

You know your mum is not out, when she introduces your boyfriend as “a friend of my son’s”.

  1. I would really want to know how would you expected her to introduce him to people…

  2. but that would mean she is ready to face what comes! That would be “being out”. Which she is not.

    I have to confess, I am enjoying this. It’s letting the others know what I have been trough, how I used to make and take decisions. Failing is good, failing is a good teacher. Plus I have more lessons to be learned in my little gay bag.

    To answer your question, Romanian is more easy on double meanings as far as this one is concerned: “Este prietenul lui X” as opposed to “Este un prieten de-al lui X” could imply boyfriend, but also best friend, or just friend. Treacherous language! But, wording is besides the point here. I have just realized how far my folks have come in accepting who I am. Not that far. But I know it’s just a stage, like everything else.

  3. sunt oameni care au intrerupt orice legatura cu familiile lor din cauza asta, so you may look at the bright side :)

  4. true! But I do have the highest expectations from my friends and family.

  5. Was that a Civic by any chance? The rear mirror looks awfully familliar to me…
    Hello anyway, I enjoied reading you…

  6. That is a Civic, very astute! Glad you liked it, hope you’re not done with it. Do come again?

  7. I always come back, but in silence most of the times.
    And that above was not astute, it’s just habit. A rear view I kinda’ see daily. I guess I’ll see you in traffic, now that I know what to look for… hi-hi-hi.
