“My Boyfriend Still Hasn’t Introduced Me to His Parents and I Don’t Know Why”

I have been dating my boyfriend for seven months now and things are going well. I am 24 and he is 28. However, I have not yet met his parents and I’m starting to wonder why. First, they do not live in the same state. Mine do, and we have gotten together with them a few times. During the few times he has seen his parents while we have been dating, he has told me that they have told him that they want to meet me and to bring me to their house for a weekend some time. He seems excited in the moment, but it never comes to fruition. He makes…

“My Mother Has Been Overtaken With Religion and Can’t Accept That I’m a Lesbian”

I am a lesbian, and my live-in mom refuses to accept that I’m gay or accept my girlfriend, unless we’re “just friends,” due to her religious beliefs. She tells me that it’s an abomination and that I will go to hell for this.

My partner says he views the marriage as nothing more than a piece of paper but has stayed married because he would like to return the favour in case she ever wants to return to the UK, which he feels is the right thing to…

“My Family Rejected Me After I Came Out as Trans”

When I was 28 years old, I came out as transgender, male to female. My coming out was forced to happen before I felt ready because my dad’s girlfriend had seen me on the street dressed as the “other” gender and told my dad about it against my will. After that, my dad texted me saying I was a disgusting freak and that I should stay away from him and “his family.” In the ensuing three years I have often begged him to just let me visit him again and for him to accept me. He relented on some level, but our relationship hasn’t warmed back up again to what it used…
