How to help my family understand I'm gay?

Asked by newyorkgirl12 (129points) September 9th, 2014 from iPhone

Hi there, I am just wondering if anyone has some advice or stories to share on how they helped their family to understand they are gay.

Because I have dated men all of my life and for the past 4 years I have been with a woman, my partner now for 4 years, I think my family thinks this is just a phase and not real.

I believe that if they understood that this was real and it is not going to change, they would adapt easier.

Just wondering if anyone has had a similar situation.
