I always see those messages of "be proud of who you are" and stuff like that and i want so badly to do so, I wanted to come out as pansexual to my family, to my friends and i do have the courage to do so, the problem is my mom, she'll never accept that. And i've seen this situaltion lots of times before, but most of the time it's because of prejudice, and maybe eventually they get softer and this stops being a problem, but with my mom its because of religion, she's super rigorous and any sin I do would "send her to a see of tears", her words. And i love her so much, if she were a bad mom it'd be all so much easier, but she's not, she's been my company for my whole life and i cannot live without her, but what she's asking of me is impossible. I just wish religion didn't exist so me and so many other people wouldn't be going through this kind of thing.
