Coming out of the closet while dealing with the Indian mentality on homosexuality was very difficult. I never told my family, they knew because Eli had been living with me for over two years in the same room. LOL. I mean, how do you discuss something like this with your family? In my family, we don't get emotional. So it was very difficult even expressing the words. There were personal attacks made towards us, I was not accepted by my family. In fact, I don't think our relationship is accepted by most of my immediate family members even now.
