Okay.... this is going to contain some grammatical errors, so, sorry in advance.
I am bi-curious, but I think I may be a lesbian. I am attracted to females and would not mind being in a relationship with a female, or even marrying one either. I have came out to my friends already, very causally, they were very supportive. I have one friend who thought I was “gay” even before I came out, which I find hilarious. So, I’m very happy about that, the fact that I can still be friends with them, and that nothing has really changed between us. However, the problem is with my family. I come from a “brown” family, who aren’t too traditional, if that makes any sense. But I know that if I come out, it's going to affect our relationship. I think my Dad is going to be angry or even disappointed, my Mom too, but mostly my Dad. I really don't want to disappointing them, in fact that's the last the thing I want. I am thinking of coming out to my sister first, but I'm also scared of her reaction, then I'll come out to my parents when I leave for college which will be next year. I don't really know. This isn't a thing you can control, it's just the way I was made. In the end, I don't really care what people's reactions are because this is my life but I don't want to lose any connection and relationship with my family. If someone can advise and/or help me, it would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!!

My sad thoughts written

well are you really in a hurry of coming out? I understand you would not want ur parents to get disappointed so I’m curious if it really bothers you not getting out now.
ReplyI'm not really in a rush but I, in the slightest way possible, a bit guilty. I don't really know why but I feel as if I'm keeping a secret, which in a sense I am. But in the end, I don't ultimately care if they end up being mad because I can't change the way I was created, but I guess I don't want them to not accept me.
Replygive it time and don’t feel guilty. me i was always told im a lesbian or a bi even if im not haha im a straight woman and i don’t care what they think. just enjoy what u are right now and once you have all the courage to let ur parents know regardless of how’ll they react, go for it. :)
ReplyThank you so much! 🧡
ReplyDont worry if your les of bi dont be ashamed your parents should accept you if not and start getting mad I'd leave that place to ur friends if they dont accept that that's you , you need to forget about how they feel if they cant accept how you are dont accept there feelings soon there gonna miss their daughter and accept you but that's in a matter of time goodluck!
ReplyThank you! That made me smile
ReplyI agree with those saying to withhold the information. Based on my experience, it's important to sort it out for yourself. You have to live life and interpret it.
Other people are eagerto inject their own desires into their reactions. Your parents may inject their desire for you to be straight, which meansthey will interpret your desires as a bad choice. Your friends may inject their desire for a "cool friend" or "on my side",so they interpret your desires as a certain identity.
Onlyyou can figure out how there experiences make sense to your life. Like you said, you were created a certain way, a way totally unique from others. Whether you live traditionally or radically, these feelings will play a role, however minor or major. Only the best!
