Dear Kathleen:

Somehow I missed your post of two days ago, didn’t know you posted until this morning. I read your comments on other members’ threads- very intelligent, insightful, kind- and re-read your post here: what an unusual, rare 19 year old you are!

How rare it must be, a 19 year old working full time and attending classes full time and volunteering for a non profit most of her non working time.

It is unbelievable to me that your parents do not speak to you while you are living with them. How can they not be proud of you, I wonder.

You didn’t expect their reaction to you telling them that you are bisexual- is it because they were not critical of you in the past, but were accepting of you, so you thought they will accept this as well?
