Today's story

I had been dating my second girlfriend for about a year when I decided to come out to my mom. I didn't want to talk to her about it, so I wrote her a long letter and put it on the table next to her bed while she was sleeping.

The next morning, I woke up to my mother checking on me, to make sure I was alive. She had only read a little bit of the letter and for some reason thought it was a suicide letter. She was relieved to find out it wasn't. And it turned out that she already knew I was a lesbian (and had known about it for some time), knew that I was dating my girlfriend (funny how moms sometimes know everything), and that she loved both of us.
