Thank you so much for sharing your story. I don't really have any gay friends so reading something like this is very insightful. I'm sorry for your loss and I hope you and Christian are doing well. Also, write more blogs!!

Is it normal that I broke down in tears?

This was a touching read.

I have never had anything against people oriented towards the opposite sex because I assume it must already be overly hard for you to live in a world like this with said "condition," for lack of a better term.

My respects to you.

Wow. Thank you for taking the time to write all that down and share it with us. I'm so very sorry for your loss, but really can't thank you enough for putting all this out there. I wish you the best of luck with your Dad, and it sounds like he wants you in his life, and wants to be in yours, which is so important.

You've given me some much needed perspective on life. Thanks for that too. Best of luck going forward.

Not sure if it was the best timing to tell your father the day after the funeral, but regardless, I'm glad everything turned out ok for you!

Great touching blog post... I will not lie, I read it all the way through expecting to get bel-air'd, instead I got a tug at my heart strings! Thank you!

What an inspirational and emotional story, man. Stay strong, man. Things are getting better all the time (for gay people in this country, anyway). I am straight, and when I was in middle school, I was deeply homophobic, and it took until college for me to start being comfortable around gay guys. Now I'm a major proponent of gay rights and follow the gay marriage fight very closely. People are coming around all the time. Gay marriage will be legal nationwide in ten years!
