I wanted to do it with David and mum in the room. I kind of never want to tell him, but I do. I know dad loved me, that he accepted every other part of me. Sure, there was a flush of euphoria when I told mum, but the fear with dad. I never had considered the stigma of being gay. I was always defined by my autism, my ADD, every little thing that set me apart. It reveals a part of ourselves we deny, or find a way to live with. It was also a chance to tell dad about me and Ryder. He deserves a break after dealing with an ungrateful sod like me.
Family is an important thing, even if it doesn't always feel that way. David was a brilliant host, as always, and never dominated the conversation, never overstepped his boundaries.Īt the end of it, I hugged David and made him promise to call me when he was with his family.
And just that simple act meant everything to me. My last session with David was better than I expected.
