Perhaps this would be less hurtful if they stayed at a motel? Or are you entertaining from the home base? Their first visit?
Thanks LdyLnWolf1,

This is their first visit since I moved here 5 years ago. And they will be staying with me. That's the realy sucky part. Not only do I need to de-gay the place, but my mom loves to clean and get into things. I literally have to take stuff to a friend's house rather than just stick it in a closet. Ugh!

But I did promise myself a long time ago that if they ever asked, I would tell them. I won't lie about it. I figure that they know. My mom called once the morning after a sleep-over party I had, and when she asked what I was doing I said "laying in bed with a bunch of my friends". Well, her response to this was "I hope they are girls!!!". LOL! Yeah, they know but they don't want to know, and if I say it then it somehow becomes "real". So I won't volunteer it, but I refuse to lie about it. I figure they'll ask when they want to get it out into the open.

I just helped a friend of mine come out to himself and his friends, and I'm very active in helping people explore their lifestyles in the various groups I belong to here in LA. So I do my good for the community. I guess my biggest worry is about being a hypocrite. But given the circumstances, I don't think that I am. I would be if I hid myself from a lot of people, but I don't. This is just one of those things.

Wow, what a day! You guys are awesome!
