I really can't come out to my parents. My father would never understand really, and my mother would just honestly rather not know. But I feel like my sister would get it, my question is this...should I just tell her verbally or open the door dressed an say "surprise!"? She is the closest family member I have and I dislike having to "hide" things before she comes over. I ask because I am generically a smartass by nature and I worry that if I just tell her she'll think I'm making a joke and am not serious at all. Thoughts? Suggestions?
