So. Last night I wrote my mom a letter telling her I was gay. And she went to work this morning. So she read it.. I found it open on the bar. So I caged myself up in my room and haven't seen her all day. I live in the south and I am scared to death that she hates me. She won't respond to my texts. And she hasn't come to my room to try to talk. She isn't crying because I can hear her moving around. Im so scared what do I do?!

Go talk to her. It may seem like the hardest thing in the world (and it might be) but you have to own up to it and tell her. Her reaction really doesn't matter, what matters is that you're open and honest with her.

I'm so scared though. I've been in my room all day and I'm starving! And almost out of dvd's

You cant hide in your room forever unfortunately :( youve done the hardest part, now all you need to do is go and see her, she'll understand, dont worry :)

The only thing you have to fear is fear itself. Writing the letter was brave, now see it through.

Taylor, she might had been trying to digest the information and also wondering how is it that you felt you could not say it straight to her face rather than in a letter.
Don't get me wrong, I understand it took a huge amount of courage to even write it down and send it to her, but still she might feel you do not trust her enough.
If you haven't done it already, get out of your room and talk to her, at least let her ignore you. So far it has been you who was trying to avoid her all day.

So. I just found out that she is incredibly pissed. And she won't tell anybody what she is mad at. I'm at my grandmothers. And she will be here any minute. I don't think she would tell my grand mother. But I'm scared mg grand mother will ask. What do I do?

Try not to think about it. I know that I personally start to overthink things, and that I start to imagine the worst. So I think the best thing you can do is just try and calm down. Even if your mom is pissed at you, there isn't anything that she can do to change you. And if she does tell your gramndma then she might do it because she needs advice or she just simply needs another adult to talk to about this. But just relax and try not to overthink it.
Hope everything goes well

Keep in mind that there is a difference between love and acceptance. Even if she is pissed and doesn't accept you for being gay, you're still her son and she still loves you. I hope everything turns out alright for you.

She told me that I was spitting in gods face. And that I chose to live like this and go to hell. Rather than live a straight live and go to heaven.

Try to explain to her that it wasn't a choice and you would be unhappy if you pretended to be straight all your life. Good luck man :/

I'm not religious but if God really didn't want people to be gay, why are there so many? It's your choice what sexuality you want to be. Your her son and she's your mum, so she will just have to accept it how it is, however hard it may be for her.

I feel for you. <3 I don't know what to suggest other then time. She may be scared or not understanding but she will come around. Explain that it isn't a choice and that it is no ones fault.
If you want someone to talk to feel free to contact me. Good luck.

She obviously loves you so just talk to her, this is just a small barrier jump over the task and ask her about her feelings towards it .. BUT ask directly don't ask stupid other questions first!!!! Just dive in I know its hard though but its best

No matter what you are still her flesh and blood. All animals have a bond of some sort due to this. Granted some are not the best examples but with humans we still feel an attachment to our own flesh and blood. We are not able to lightly throw it aside. She is probably just processing what is going on, Maybe wondering how to deal with it on her end. Either way, way to go for coming out to your parents.
