That really sucks. FYL for sure

It sucks that your parents were so mean to you. I hope you didn't get too upset at your coworker. She couldn't have known what happened to you and she was probably just trying to be nice, but it came out wrong.

Sorry that was said to you. People always think others lives are better. It's that grass is always greener on the other side things. Never judge someone till you walk in their shoes. People also never think before they speak. I'm really sorry your parents reacted that way to you being a Lesbian you did nothing to deserve being treated that way . Good luck.

Good on your parents, God bless them.

Some people can be so ignorant and insensitive. I recently had a co-worker tell me I was lucky to have a serious illness because it "made me skinny and I got to stay in bed all day". If I had the energy to do so I think I would have slapped her.

That's horrible that your family kicked you out of your house just because of your sexuality, which is something you can't chose. That's like kicking out a person just because h/she is a different skin color than you, which is also something you can't chose

Why is everyone up their own ******* ass on this site. 1. How could the coworker know that and know to be sensitive around the subject of her sexuality, and what affect that had on her childhood and 2. How much of a ******* ego do you have to have to be legitimately angry at something a coworker said that sounded pretty light hearted, even if she is a bit naive about lack of choosing a sexuality.

"Well, as you think it's a choice why don't you just CHOOSE to be gay too?!"

Not making light of the situation, but OP's username gave me a chuckle.

hey I see how that could have hurt you but your coworker didn't have bad intentions behind it she was probably just making idle conversation with that said I am a firm believer in the fact that we choose our own paths in every aspect of our lives other wise we would all just be mindless drones following a predetermined path you may not be able to choose other people's paths I.e your parents horrible reaction but we all have a say in what goes on in our own lives I choose to be with women just like I choose what clothes I wear or what did I eat nobody is born with preferences they are developed over time based on what we tell ourselves we like and don't like. I may not agree with homosexuality which is my right to not agree with it just like it's other people's right to agree with it but yet I still have a lot of gay friends and they all know my stance on it but still choose to be my friend because I don't judge them badly for but agreeing with me nor do I look down on them after all we are all human and in my eyes everyone is equal.
