Yeh thanks Heineken. I think he will come around eventually, but the hard part will be telling him, and I feel bad if I have to pass that burden onto someone else :-k
I'll talk about it to my sister.

The Lounge has gone from wise cracking to a D&M very quickly... either way best of luck lad

You cant hide who you are. He has to accept you 100% as you are and nothing less. He will have to find out one day and it just depends if you want to keep procrastinating or just get it off your chest.

Talk about it with your sister and mum and organise what you think is the best way to tell him

Well I know my mum thinks he doesn't have to know for a while, but that's not fair to me. She'll change her mind if she sees how much I want to be out. I feel like I'm wasting my teenage years hiding like this.

In that case just tell him. It's easy for somebody like me to say who has no idea how hard it must be. But I guess in the end it doesn't really matter when/how you tell him, just that you do and you guys talk about it maturely with respect. Maybe it's a bad thing to be constantly waiting for the "right moment"... it may never come.

Yeh I cbf waiting for the right moment. But me and my dad really aren't that close at all, and there is no way I'm doing it alone either in case he says something bad.

Cheers a lot though guys :)

Have you considered that he suspects it? Or your mum may have said somthing when you came out to her, but told him to be quiet about it till your cool to tell him?

I can assure you no on both those lol

I'm not trying to take the piss out of you here mate, but if you mates pay any attention to you at all and have seen how you dress, how you talk and how you behave, they know you're gay. Four or five times when we were in Sydney hanging out a georgous woman walked past us and you and david were looking at the clouds or a bus (yes, that was a cheap shot at david). It doesn't take long talking to you to have suspicions of your sexual preference raised and I'm fairly sure your dad has an idea but has just ignored the notion.

Your dad needs to accept you for who you are, not for who he wants you to be. I think your idea of coming out on facebook is an extremely volatile way of going about it in that it could go very very well, or it opens you up for an awful lot of bullying.

But what you need to remember, and this is absolutely key, is that when you're in school you have a handful of people from which to select your group of friends (a couple of hundred at best) and even if they do "turn against you", there are more accomodating people who will be much better friends out in the real world, when you have the whole world to socialise with instead of a handful of people in highschool.

You can pick your friends, and you can pick your nose, but you can't whipe your friends on the couch.

Well I'll have you know the majority of the people I've come out to had no idea.
The people I hang around at school will have an inkling mainly because I never say anything about chicks, not my mannerisms, and most people in my grade will. I have people in my grade who will back me up, and there is a minority who will pay me out but the majority will be against them.

I realised the Facebook way was a bad idea, and am in the process of discovering a new way.

If you were looking at us then you wouldn't of been looking at the girl either. ;)

It's quite easy when I turn around to watch her walking away and you two are still looking forwards.

Just throwing it out there...but perhaps a sky-writer? :lol:

You know seriously, I never seen you turn behind once. :lol:

Your memory fails you quite miserably.

I'm with Dave, I never seen you turn around either.

Several times on George St.

I remember we saw a fat obv gay guy in a tight pink shirt or something. And I remember the waiter being hot where we ate. I remember hot Swedish people in front of us for a while. Hahaha

There was this mint chick as we were walking up george st, you and david were just behind me because it was taht narrow bit and a mint chick was going the other way...I turned around watching her walk past and you and dave were just off with the faries.

You can see chicks in Melbourne. Catching up was our prerogative.

You guys just get closer and closer. inb4 this forum turns into date rape central.

:o :-& :-$
lol actually ive seen quite a few hot melbourne chicks but still :lol:

Can someone tell me how the fuck I can download the new MW2 maps? It says look in the PS Store and they're not there

This. I cracked the shits.

Friday is the PS Store update. Should be on there then.

Fuckin Infinity Ward. They said May 1st

Better then Treyarch.
Yeah. Hope it is this Friday.

Clearly they lied. But you deserve it for buying playstation.

Hey s_fan, I'm with you on the facebook idea,

But still, I'm not really sure how you can break it to your Dad, but if you talk to your mum she'd know your Dad best and'll be able to tell you the way to go.

:) Hope thats help mate.

Yeah. i agree with Southern. Your mum knows your dad better than anyone else, so I guess you should ask her.

I'm hell pissed off though, I had an argument about the world cup bid with someone, they said I was wrong, got a stack of recent articles bout it and he still thinks he's right. ](*,)
