So I came out as a mermaid to my family today... I've actually been telling them for a while but my dad and my brothers thought it was a joke and my mum only kinda knew. So today I explained to my parents that I'm actually serious about wanting to get a tail and how I'm going to get a monofin after my exams. They took it really well. My dad was bemused but he is fine with me doing mermaiding ( although he still thinks it's a but weird). He even suggested that I do it with my friends but I'm not ready to tell them yet.
I'm really happy though. I've not had a great week but today has been a good day. I don't usually share bits of my life but I thought I'd share this because I know telling family can be a problem.
Anyone else had a similar experience?
