    This is the most sincere, touching "coming out" story I have ever heard. This shows how important is to be supportive. Maybe to your sister that phone call was not a big deal, but it changed everthing, maybe you guys wouldn't be here today. This shows how important is to be kind to people. Thank you for sharing your story.

    My daughter told me and her dad when she was 15. I know we did our job and created a loving environment because she felt comfortable enough to share that with us so young. I’ll forever pat myself on the back for that. It’s couples like you sharing your stories that gives these kids the courage to be themselves tho, I’m forever grateful for positive influences.
    Your videos help others understand, relate, and continue to normalize this completely normal lifestyle. Proud of you both.

    When I was struggling with accepting who I was I turned to youtube to see same sex couples in healthy, functioning relationships. I found your guys’ channel and it changed everything for me. It gave me the confidence to come out and embrace who I am, at 26 years old…. Your channel gave me hope. You’re right it does get better! Thank you for sharing your story publicly♥️ I strongly feel if it wasn’t for this channel I would have never came out!

    I will never understand why anybody should of been mean to you for being upset or crying for not getting married. Of course you would be upset and then sometimes it’s like a ton of bricks hitting you and you just cry. You’ve been looking forward to that day and because of circumstances you just can’t be married on that day, last time I checked you were human and of course you’re going to feel upset people need to grow a heart. I know one day soon come September praying that is the day you will be married and you can finally call each other my wife. So happy you’re back❤️

    It says so much that you remember that conversation with your sister so vividly vs barely remembering the conversations with your parents. It is so important to get that clear support from someone especially after being told off for just being who you are. I'm so glad you had that and that you guys had each other even if it was hard to figure everything out.
    Hearing the start of your story and seeing how far you have come, I'm so happy for you! Looking forward to both hearing more of your story and possibly seeing some wedding content real soon 🥰

Kayli's statement when performing your wedding was spot on, you are both "strong and brave women." I commend you both for fighting for your love for one another. So many would buckle and conform to others wishes. I wish ya'll a long and happy life filled with love and joy. Live your best lives ladies and know that your videos will make a difference in the lives of the many gabies out here in internet land.

    Sisters are the best, I got married in 2019. My brother who I thought was supportive (he had been through the first 4 years of our relationship, why wouldn’t he be excited if our wedding) told us 4 weeks before that his family would not be coming. In my upset state of mind I instantly called my sister to make sure she knew I didn’t want her to come if it was against her beliefs too. She like Kayli was shocked I would even ask that. The conversations I had with her and my younger brother made a huge difference in how I was feeling. I am still hurt/upset about my other brother but was still able to enjoy our special time with the rest of the family. 💜

    I come from a very religious Jewish family and I knew I was gay since I was 13 and now I'm 19 and haven't told them since then cause I know how they'll react:( I relate to your coming out story a lot and I feel a bit comforted that I'm not the only one going through it.
    And growing up watching Kayli's family vlogs always wondering if they support the LGBTQ+ because they come from such a religious family as well, watching your coming out video made me so happy hearing that

    Beautiful story, and I know how hard it must have been for you two. If we all can take away one thing from this, is that you felt like a “monster”. The sadness coming from you, I’m sure has been felt by thousands of teens, boys and girls, afraid to be outed. It breaks my heart, thank you for sharing this, you are strong, and so blessed to have each other. My sister in law was gay, she passed away and her sexuality didn’t change a thing of how much I loved her and her partner.

    Your moment with Kayli isn’t tiny it has a huge impact on how you felt at the time I was a nanny at the time I got outted my biggest worry about that was not having the kids bc I had been there since they were born I still have them and their mom is one of the people I could talk to about anything

    I'm so proud of you for choosing to pick when the time was right for you to tell your own story and my heart absolutely breaks for you listening to your story. I totally agree that you have to allow people to change though. It took my mom almost 5-10 years to accept me coming out and this pride month she finally brought me my first rainbow thing (even if it was just a lego) and I cried just because it meant so much to me. So it totally does get better after it gets worse, people just have to come about it in their own times and in their own way.
    I'm so happy that you had Kayli as a big sister to be supportive for you and that the both of you have each other. The small things sometimes are the biggest things in your life especially when you feel the lowest of the low and can surprise you the most. Thank you both for being awesome role models.

  • @lisass1969
    @lisass1969 3 года назад +12

    Kale, you have a right to be upset when an important event is canceled. The emotion of something you have looked forward to for so long AND with all the shit going on, it is ok to cry. Crying is good for you, holding emotions in is so bad for you. I was supposed to do something I have dreamed about since I found out I was adopted at 24, my mom told me that after I was "outed" for the 2nd time. First time in high school. It went really bad. I felt I had no one. I did not date anyone for several years, and when I did, I dated a couple guys. I put myself in the closet, and locked the door. When I was told I was adopted, I found out I had older siblings. I found my bio siblings beginning of 2020. I planned to meet my oldest sister in Sept. That did not happen. Dates were pushed many times. We had planned to go, together, to Dallas to meet 3 more sisters. Sadly, one sister passed. I still have not met any of my siblings. When I was upset that my chance to meet the sibling who passed was stolen from me, I was told by a friend " you should not be upset, you don't even know her." So, I know what is must have been like for you to have such an important thing get canceled. Do not allow ANYONE tell you not to be sad. I am older than you guys, so my coming out was back in the days before cell phones, internet and Ellen. I located my bio family for medical reasons, never dreaming they wanted a relationship, because I assumed they knew about me, they did not. So, I know younger people will be asking you guys for advice on coming out. Any advice for an older person coming out again, especially when she found out via FB that at least 2 of her sisters are Republican and voted for the orange guy...? I posted so much during pride, music from LGBTQ artists, Harvey Milk quotes. My bio cousin's that are on my FB know, they have both told me they figured it out within 24 hours of friended me. Sorry this is such a long post, but I got very emotional during your video. I follow several younger couples on RUclips because I am interested in what it is like for the next generations, living in a world after Ellen, Melissa...and Brandi (BTW, Jess, has anyone ever told you that you look like Brandi Carlile?) My reason is...back when I locked myself in the closet, I locked myself away and "played the role" of a "straight" person. I dated a couple guys. The last guy I dated, well, I have a daughter. She is Kale's age. At 18, she came out to me and I took it really hard. Because my mom was horrible to be, the school was horrible, I was bullied, harassed, and hit. I did NOT want people to hate my kid because of something she had no control about. So, I put on a happy face for her. She stumbled when she was trying to find the words, I had figured it out weeks before, so I told her "I know what you are going to say and when you feel more comfortable to talk, we can do that, but I know, so the hard part is over." I then went and got several of my issues of OUT and Advocate magazines and the DVD of Chutney Popcorn (love that movie.) and wrote her a note. I told her telling my mom was not the best idea, but if she wanted to I would go with her, things will be rough sometimes, but if you chose the right friends and remember you are who you were born to be, you will be just fine." So, coming out is STILL hard. My kid, though I do not flaunt it, I'm very private, had a difficult time coming out to her lesbian mother. The reason so many people have been asking Kale is because it is STILL hard. Things are SO MUCH BETTER. I might get to walk my kid down the aisle. Yet, I, in my early 50's, can not find the right words to say to my bio sisters "hey, guess what, I'm the out of 5 that's gay". Good luck to you guys. Looking forward to pt 2.

I was able to find an amazing found family that has been with me through all my ups and downs and love me and support me just the same. Remember that other people's ignorance and hate have absolutely no reflection on you or your character or value. I want you to know that I, and I'm sure many others, support you 100%!

    What you went through is trauma. I’m so sorry you had such hurtful reactions from your parents and other family. I’m so glad you found a safe space with Kayli. I’m curious if your parents knew about your other sister before or after they outed you, and if that helped them be more accepting or made their reaction to you harder. I really hope your parents, and anyone else in your family, that hurt you and made you feel like a monster have truly apologized and are making amends for the trauma inflicted. I volunteered for a group called Free Mom Hugs at SF pride the year before the pandemic. One person hugged me so tight and I overheard him telling his friends that his parents haven’t hugged him since he came out. So many stories like that that broke my heart. Love is love, and I wish everyone would recognize that. Especially parents. Sending you a huge hug. Thank you for sharing your story. ❤️

    The fact that youre taking a traumatic event from YOUR life and sharing it with all of us, is so incredibly brave. I was always someone replying to people who commented on every video asking for your coming out story, to just let you be, and you would share when you were ready. Seeing how hard it is for you to talk about it, and the fact that youre reliving all of this, just for the sake of helping others, is honestly so amazing. So so proud of you and being around to see your guys' journey since the beginning of this channel. So happy you have Jess to be there to support you through this hard topic. You guys are the best.
    I also agree with your story about telling Kayli....I had someone who I confided in when having the not so best coming out, as well...and what they said also saved me, made me feel NORMAL and VALID, and I will forever be grateful for that moment. God and the Universe puts people in our lives for a reason. That phone call with her only needed to be 5 mins. It was all you needed. So glad you had that moment of validation.

While my parents are still not overtly accepting, it definitely gets better.

    HI. As an avid watcher of all your videos. I am so glad that you have found the strength to say what you have. Raw feelings and emotions are never easy to go through but you have and you have risen up above all the negativity and shown so many people that it does indeed get better. The admiration I have for you both cannot be put into words. Thanks for sharing your story Kale and Jess thanks for being the great support that you are. I can't wait for part 2:)

    thank you so much for being vulnerable sharing your story with us, I remember first coming across your channel through Kayli and instantly became a fan! I teared up hearing you talk about your relationship with Kayli, I'm so glad that you had her as a support system. sending you both so much love, and im soooo looking forward to wedding pics!!

    This is the most touching and honest video I’ve seen in a long time. Honestly watching it I was just so intently listening to everything you were saying and so shocked and heartbroken for you! I’m so happy you are getting your “it gets better” moments and that you are more comfortable with yourself and who you are. Sending so much love to you but also Jess cause you could see how much it hurt her going back as well! ❤️💜

    I'm sorry you went through that. Glad things are better. Kayli is amazing, because she is a naturally good human. She doesn't need her beliefs to cloud her judgement and brain wash her to hate others.

    Thank you for being on RUclips. Thank you for being so open. Thank you for being so brave. I have been a long time follower. Your story will help so many. My fiancé and I have very different stories. I was forced to come out after my then girlfriend threatened to tell my entire family after we broke up. I was terrified to tell my mom because I didn’t want her to be disappointed with me. I was in a very dark place, but luckily my mom was understanding. She supported me then and now. She is involved with my future wife and supports her as well.

    Truth be told, I have followed your channel since it’s origination, but it’s never really been my style to comment. However, I had to let you know how incredibly brave you are and how thankful I am that you decided to share your experience.
    I resonate with so much of your story. The trials, self doubt, and emotions. I grew up in the Deep South, the good ole Bible belt. I also graduated in 2005. Let’s just say, I was deep in that closet. My “coming out” was rather similar and I can ‘vividly’ ;) remember feeling like my life was over. However, just as you said it’s the small things that got me through and with time it really does it better.
    Unfortunately, our stories are not unique. There are thousands of other people whom have had or are having a similar experience. After my mine, I would watch hours of videos, like this one, just to know that I wasn’t alone. So, I know this is a novel comment but representation matters. Again, thank you both for being brave enough to share your life and experiences.
    Now get that podcast together, you’ve already got one listener! 🙋‍♀️

    I read something recently that said you would never tell anyone not to be happy because other people are happier. So we should never tell someone not to be sad because there are other people who have sadder circumstances.

Yours and Jess’s love story is amazing. Although it had its ups and downs, this goes to show that true love is real, and if you find someone worth fighting for everything will come out on top. I’m excited for the day you two get married! I’ve been watching your videos for so long now, and I know the best is yet to come! Much love to the both of you and Keani! I’m excited for part 2!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️ love from Ohio!

    First of all I am so proud of you for sharing your story. Secondly we are blessed to have people that are willing to share like this on such a public platform. Thirdly God Bless your sister because she probably saved you in a very dark time. Last bit not least you two are freaking amazing! I am so glad I found your channel and find it inspiring! I am older than both of you and did not come out until I was in my mid thirties and at that point I was like accept or not this is who I am and I just want to be me. It took me a long time to figure out who I was. I was told I had to be straight. Blah blah blah. But when I was told basically I was worthless because I could not bare a biological child with a man who was just plain selfish. Then proceeded forward to adopt my children alone there was something about that, that set me free. I didn't care anymore. God loves all people. Religion sucks because there are a lot of false beliefs within religion. But when you cut out the middle man and take it to you and God well he loves all. I know I am loved by him. I have 5 beautiful adopted children and have fostered several more. I have made a difference in their lives. I have a partner we choose not to live together right now. MY choice but it is good. Things do get better. Together you guys have this! Thanks so much for sharing!

Big props to Kayli too! The moment you asked that Q to her was crucial and she nailed it! I've been in your shoes too and never quite got the same response from my siblings but instead from other family members and they were my saving graces also!

    I am a 77 years old man and I just came across your video. I am in love with you both. Imagine the following scenario: you are two lovable young beautiful girls and everyone loves you. But as soon as you come out, there are some people that instantly hate you. Un believable!!!!! Why ? what has changed in you two? You have courage in you and you made it through. And it is this sort of behaviour that people don't like Mormons. I have a suggestion for you Move to Montreal, Quebec. You won't believe that 99% of us will accept you and love you without questions. Keep on loving and the hell for these narrow minded people. XXX

Lol we have also been together a long time and got married on our 10 year anniversary. And I was also raised Mormon. But I am glad you are sharing your story Kale. I'm glad the story gets better! I just want to hug you both! You ladies are amazing! ❤

    Ah good ol youtube land! Just because you got upset over having to put off your wedding DOESNT MEAN SOMEONE ELSES ISSUES DONT MATTER! It’s a feeling! If you’re dad, you’re sad! It’s not like you simultaneously thought,”I have the biggest problems right now and all I care about is myself”. They’ll twist it any way they can to troll. Crying DONT mean you don’t appreciate how insignificant your problem is compared to other people! Just don’t take it wrong, I would have felt the same way in your shoes, but I can recognize that it’s not the biggest problem, I love you guys. You make such a beautiful couple! You’re both gorgeous and I can tell how much you mean to each other. I’m sorry that all those years ago, they bring back memories of how you felt like a monster. You are stunning inside out, Kale, and so is Jess. No one should feel like this just because of who they love. I don’t like stereotypes, because you fall in love with the person.. I’m glad your story got better. I’m happy you guys have support from your family today!

    Thanks for sharing this. I can see how painful it was to relive, and I can relate. It's unbelievably hard to think back and feel like that moment was taken from you, you never had time to come to terms with your sexuality and come out on your own terms. It's extremely traumatic to go through and the scars last a long time. I can also relate to your conversation with your sister, I was so worried family would not want me to see my niece! It's absolutely heartbreaking to think about. Luckily it does get better ❤
