I loved the ad. I told my mother in a I hop that I was in love with a woman. I had told her that I had met some one and she said oh how is he?.. and I said no, I met a girl and she then said to me oh its great to have friends. I had just come back from vermont and she thought i had just had a friend there not a lover. It took a minute to dawn on her what I was saying but she was great about it. I told her in public so she couldnt flip out.. What I found out later is my mom was also in the closet. We went through our first out relationships at the same time.
