What I thought: I'm just getting in the car to bring my boyf home :) that's polite
What I got: my mom discussing my recent coming out, as well as future housing options, while we drive down the highway attempting to recharge the cars battery for an actual Hour
#rice rambles#we dropped off henri and then she was just 'while i have you in the car!#and started asking questions and im just hhhhh#shes. accepting. kinda? its like. she wanta to eventually get to the point of using my name(s) and ? maybe my pronouns#but its Too Much tight away#so instead she asked if she could ease in by stopping using my birthname and changing to a nickname (banana)#bc its Too Much#but she will tell specific family members who were confused but too worried abt offending me to ask abt it what to call me#so like. at least theres that#and shes all 'i love you but just remember my beliefs'#and idk if she means it that way but what it sounds like is#'i love you but youre going against god and i dont believe thats real' bc of how she says it#and im just hhhhhh#it was Wild#like. glad we got that over with#bc itd be OOF no matter when it happened#and ive been anxious abt hearing her response to this anyway#so. nice i guess.
