rfmcdonaldThe parents have an appointment to see a family counsellor--the same one I've been going to myself--for 5:30 tomorrow evening. Fun, fun.
I have to admit that I think our current relationship is dead. I just want to see if anything can be salvaged from it, and a new polite distant one built. Moving away, I'm told, will erode still more of the ties, which is good. I don't get anything from Dad, and I get the feeling from Mom that whatever she does she wants me to be incessantly and stupidly grateful for the good things she's done in the past.
They had their chance last year. Time to see whether they deserve a new one.
(That sounds awfully harsh, but I don't care. If they hate having the idea of having an independent-minded faggot son, to hell with them.)
