must be hard, but if they threw you out, you could come live with me! *laughs* ill have a gay shelter! but yeh *won't joke now* it's a very hard thing to tell your parents, especially if they're openly against gays. i mean, it was hard enough telling my parents even though they werent against it at all. i think your parents would really have to be close to you, and truly love you, to let you teach them that it's OK to be gay, my god, it's not the end of the world, you know? i've taught my mum, if not both of my parents that i can be happy, and exactly the same person as before i realized i was gay. and they may be all 'it's wrong!!!!' and you can be like 'if being honest with yourself and the people you love is wrong then yeh, im wrong, what the fuck is the point of trusting people you love and who love you, if you can't tell them who you are? if you cant be honest with them?' i used that on my sister. and she was just like *silent*
im not gona lie to you, not everyone will be cool with you being gay, but the majority will, well, at my school/friendship group anyway. but you said you're in the group with the cheerleaders and stuff? well, that could be harder than usual, but seriously, if they can't accept you then they arent real friends. i mean, my friends take the piss outa me all the time, but as long as you can take the joke (though sometimes when someone jokes and it's bad, you'll know if it's a joke or someone takin a stab at you, then you tell them to piss off or i'll come and tell them to, whatever suits!) i sometimes take the piss out of myself even! but im very comfortable with who i am, i dont prance around screaming 'IM GAY!!!' coz that's just HUMILIATING, if im friends with someone i just say 'look, im a lesbian,and if you cant take it then fine, i dont care what you think'. but with that even, it's like.. you have to be comfortable with yourself to be able to tell a lot of people. i told a few friends at first when i wasnt so happy with myself, and their reactions of how comforatble they were with me, just made me feel great.
it depends on the kind of person you are, im sure ill find out soon enough if you're introverted or extroverted, and all that stuff. but just.. make sure you don't let it get you down, coz out there there's so many people who'll love you for who you are. including me and the rest of people on this forum. and if you need support or anything, email me, im more than happy to help (this goes for everyone else as well)
and im done now, lol. finally! i wrote too much when i come on here...
