I ...This is very touching and I can relate to Cris. I have a sister who turned out to be lesbian... and i love her.<br /><br />She came to me with some of her friends (butch and femme looking lesbians) back in Narra Drom in UP... nagkewntuhan kami and all... they left without her telling me what she wanted to tell me. I knew she needed to tell me something kasi her friend reminded here about it when they were about to leave... but they left just the same.<br /><br />Then after 30 min or so, i texted here saying: "Whatever you wanted to tell me, I am cool with it. I love you regardless." She replied with gratitude and said that she did not make a mistake coming to me first.<br /><br />May be you can tell Cris to be open and accepting to whatever her sister needs to tell him... besides, it's her sister living her life. It would be helpful to have a very supportive bro to stand by her in all her decisions... because having a family support you emotionally and morally help make you successful with your decisions in life.<br /><br />We should love people for who they are, not for what we want them to be. I know Cris has lots of worries, but that's his... his sister do not need to suffer for that... and vice-versa.The Green Manhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12602923721766699077noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5477081438559630011.post-53877717434239964972009-06-09T15:10:10.532+10:002009-06-09T15:10:10.532+10:00naman naman....
