The same thing happened to me, I just don’t talk about it now, when I tried my mom basically tried tell me to use “mind over matter” and lie to myself just to try to get me to like men, force me back into religion, took away any sense of autonomy and privacy I had, we have a decent relationship now but its at the expense of me avoiding any conversation about my dating life

I’m not lesbian, but have been in this situation with family for other reasons: if they are unable to accept you as you are, they are horrible people and horrible parents. You will be chasing ghosts for the rest of your life: the parent you are looking for will likely never come to you. Yes, some people’s parents change and learn to accept, but not all.

I had this experience in reverse. My mom implied she’d be okay with me being a lesbian, but went on a huge tirade about how bisexuals couldn’t be trusted and how they were all horrible people who cheat on their partners.

I know this will suck to hear but she doesn’t actually love you, love should be unconditional and she’s putting an ultimatum on her love. You deserve someone who loves you unconditionally not someone who puts conditions on their love should. That’s not love that’s hate
