Telling My Parents



I was worried my parents would be worried about me being alone, and being irresponsible. I hadn’t told them anything earlier, because I also didn’t want them to get their hopes up, and ask me about it all the time, also there were some details I wanted to skip over. So when I called my mom, I quickly went through my entire spiel about how I wanted this for the last ten years, and I only had five good fertile years left, and I didn’t have time to wait and see if I found a partner, and I have a really great support system of friends in my life, so I just went ahead and did it and it worked. I expected my mom to go through a period of shock before total excitement, but she went straight to joy and jubilation. I can hear the smile through the phone every time I talk to her on the phone now.
