Why I Won't "Come Out" to Dad
#16
RE: Why I Won't "Come Out" to Dad
@Happy;

I empathise; I accidently came out to my father when I was 23,as a Buddhist. (I moved on from that soon after)

Dad was a devout Catholic,and tolerated no dissent about ANYTHING. He was a complete cunt about it until he went senile 30 odd years later. My solution during that time ;saw the old prick as little as possible.

As you say,each case is different.Mine was not about hurting my father,but about him being an intolerant bully.
