Please let me preface this by saying that I’m not homophobic and I don’t care if people want to live that way. It’s publicly frowned upon in my country but my parents always had a more progressive and western view. I don’t share all their beliefs but I agree that it is not up to me to judge how a stranger lives his life if it doesn’t affect me.

My parents have always been close with another couple (Kolya and Vika). When Kolya and my father were doing their mandatory military service my mother and I moved in with Vika. We still live very close to them and see them almost daily.

On saturday I was at a friend’s birthday. He lives closer to Vika and Kolya’s flat and I usually just sleep there instead of walking all the way home (it’s also safer because our neighborhood can be a bit dangerous at night especially if you’re drunk and tired). I had asked Vika if I could sleep there again and she said she wouldn’t be there but it would be no problem.

Their guest room is located behind their room so I had to go through the bedroom to get there. When I went by the bed I saw 2 people sleeping in there. One was Kolya and the other was my father. They weren’t wearing a shirt. I didn’t think right at that moment and just went to the guest room.

The next day they were both in the kitchen and eating breakfast. I asked why my father was here and he said he will explain when we go home. It was uncomfortable atmosphere.

At home my mother apologized because I wasn’t meant to find out that way but they both forgot that I was sleeping there. She explained that they sometimes met with Vika and Kolya to have sex.

It was a shock to hear because I always saw them as aunt and uncle. I told them that I need time to get my mind around it.

That was 3 days ago and the longer I’m thinking about it, the more it makes me uncomfortable. When I think about interacting with them it makes me uncomfortable.

I asked my aunt and uncle if I could move in with them for some time. They said it would be fine and I could move in with them this weekend. My cousin (who is very westernized) asked me why I wanted to move in with them and I told her what happened. She said I shouldn’t be so prejudiced and that it was non of my business what they are doing in the bedroom.

But I disagree because this affects me and it does make me uncomfortable so I don’t want to stay with them at this time. What they are doing is unnatural and I don’t want to be near that.

Edit: I’m a 15 year old girl. And I do not think that homosexuality is unnatural. I meant that my parents are betraying their marriage vows by having sex with other people is unnatural
