I came out to my dad
Today was such a fantastic day. It started out rough but in the afternoon it was great. I told my dad that I needed to speak to him alone. We went to go get something to eat. On the way, I told him I trusted him enough for me to tell him this. I told my dad I decided to tell him and not my mom because he is much more understanding.
I told him I wanted to talk to him about an important topic: asexuality. I explained to him what it was and the concept behind it. I even told him how and when I found out I was asexual. We talked a little while about our differences in beliefs and he told me he accepted me for who I am regardless of that. He told he was willing to be open-minded about this. I then proceeded to tell him I was dating someone who is transgender. He didn't react badly when I said that, treating like something normal. It didn't surprise me though. (I didn't want to go into that we met on the forums and that I'm a brony. All I said was that was "another story".) We both agreed this has strengthened the relationship between us both. We also agreed my mom should never know.
Overall, I expected this to go great. My dad may be religious but he's also open-minded, unlike my mom. I'm really happy I finally have that off my chest. It's such a wonderful feeling!
