Best response to coming out I ever got was "...And? ...Well if you're done with unfinished non sequiturs do you want to split the enchilada platter or just get tacos?"

Something similar happened to me, except it was over pizza. :p

Those two anecdotes sound awesome.

(Also, fast food makes everything better. No exceptions.)

:D I have a friend who came out to his buddy at a Sonic drivethrough. Buddy said "Gay for me? Don't worry I've had that happen before. With great hotness comes tragic consequence." When friend said no the conversation devolved into bickering about why the buddy was clearly a superior choice to anyone else friend could ever find so he might as well just pine having been ruined for other men. I remember my friend talking about how relieved he was nothing had really changed.

The time I came out to my dad was hilariously awkward.

It had been about a year since my parents got divorced and he was going to therapy. One time he asked me to come along as part of a family session.

I don't remember how it happened, but I mentioned to the therapist that I was sexually attracted to women. We then spent a few minutes discussing how to define sex.

The appointment ended and we were walking to the car when my dad said,"So, you never said you liked girls before."

And I going "Oh my god, I thought I had told you." Dad and I were really close. I had been openly queer for about two years by this point but had never dated anyone.

Everything went smoothly, he teased a little about my absentmindedness and I stopped flailing in embarrassment.

I'm glad it worked out for you!

Yeah, I forgot to tell my grandfather. I had assumed he would have known but realized he didn't when he O.O at me kissing my girlfriend and asked "So, is there something I should know?" He had some problems with it at first but things are pretty good now. Of course now my brother is dating a boy and trying to figure out how to come out as bi because he wants to bring him on the family trip and I just know I'm getting blamed for this one. :(

I wish I had advice to give. To my knowledge, I'm the only one in my extended family who is queer. I really, really hope they don't lay the you made him gay/homosexuality is contageous bullshit on you. If they do, don't be afraid talk about in the general comments. We have an endless supply of virtual hugs.

It'll probably be okay. My siblings and I are closer to each other than the rest of the family. We've handled quite a lot of crap from them over the years and while it'll be annoying I don't anticipate any actual problems that won't be solved by ignoring their requests for free baby-sitting or their favorite dishes at potlucks.
