I love that Simtropolis has this forum! I'd just like to add this inspirational message hoping whoever reads it, it rings comfort to them. 5 1/2 years ago my parents found out about my gay lifestyle. They were extremely confused becasue I had been raised in a christian home and attended chuch my entire life and even attended a private school my entire life. They didnt quite know how to handle it, lots of crying and feelings of failing as parents. I saw a counselor briefly and have fought with them time and time again. These past 5 years have been some of the hardest with family to some of the best due to the people I have met. I'm proud to be a christian and attend church almost every weekend. Our denomination does not hate the gay lifestyle which so many people assume christians due. I just want people to know that no matter what happens in your life, whether your parents kick you out or never speak to you again or you lose someone in your life, itll get better. Life is a crazy thing and the choices and things that we do dont finalize anything. Stay strong. Know people out there love you & there is people out there who care! Never stop pursuing your dreams! Follow your heart! All i wanted to say
