That's the cutest story ever lol - it's those little things that make all the difference and I like those better because they're showing you subtly rather than going to the awkward trouble of telling you.
I know, right? The night was full of little moments like these...
Only to have my mom a few days later, talking about her and then my mom made a face. She just goes, "I can't believe you have a girlfriend."
And I'm just like, "Yeah."
Then my mom pauses. "Ew you kiss her don't you?"
I was really, really trying hard not to laugh.
So, I spend Christmas with my GF's family. It was the first time we've met [except her mother] and it went really well. Her father was really nice and treated me like one of the family, [Even so far as teasing me, by making me think i was sleeping on the sofa downstairs] both of her brothers were really cool and funny. Overall it was a better Christmas that I ever had with my own family.
Much success.
Same! It's sort of weird yet awesome when a new family just sort of... lets you in, and so easily.
I am meeting her grandparents today. And her little brother, who's 13, is apparently going to be there too. And according to my gf, he really likes me and has been asking when he'd see me next.
OMG! She has a really little brother, like two. Me, her, and her older brother were on the couch watching a video, and he waddles up to me, arms outstretched like he as going to come to me. Then he pauses for a second, really looks at me, then changes direction toward her. It was adorable. The little gears in his head were spinning like, "Wait... I don't know you." It was just freaking adorable.
In other Phantom news, I've contacted my old high school. It's an inter-city private Catholic school, but it's always been rather open and accepting of diversity amongst its students. I've spoken to the board of directors and my fellow alum on the board, and I've gotten permission to start a new school club, an LGBT-ally group. It will be the first in the schools over one hundred year history (The school is like 115 years old). I will be leading it, as well as with the help of a few teachers and volunteer upper classmen. It will be about learning about the different orientations, learning how to deal with family, coming out, and just society in general. We'll do fun things too, like outings and volunteering at LGBT related agencies in the area. (Yay for Minneapolis being the gayest city in the US!)
