Heyy @Sparkybeach, I hear you. Navigating your relationship's visibility can feel really overwhelming, especially when you're not out to your parents. It's completely understandable that you want to respect your partner's feelings about being open while also considering your own comfort level and boundaries. It's okay to feel torn between wanting to share your relationship and maintaining your privacy, I know I'd be too if I was in your position. I am wondering have you had a chance to talk openly with your partner about your concerns regarding not being out to your parents? Perhaps, understanding each other's perspectives and finding a middle ground can be helpful. How do you feel about this suggestion? Also, how do you envision gradually opening up about your relationship to others, including friends and possibly your parents, in a way that feels comfortable for you?
