So I've found that I'm gay. I haven't told anyone yet and I don't know how I'm gonna tell my friends or my family. I know my parents won't be the most supportive and I get that sometimes friends aren't always as understanding as they are normally in this kind of situation.... But I feel the need to tell them. I can't hold this sort of thing in forever. How can I show my true colors?

First of all, your realization is admirable. Congratulations!
If anything, your life will be better, because you live your life better / accordingly, now that you know you are gay.
Friends do not support. Friends make fun.
Yes, tell your parents. They will support you the most.
Just tell him.
Reply* Because you will live your life better
Reply* Just tell your parents.
ReplyJust tell them. Don't be worried. You've not done a crime or illegal thing, or there's nothing to worry about.
Your parents might not even believe you, they might they you're joking. So first, you'll need to convince them.
If they don't get convinced in the first meeting, drop it there.
When they do, if they support, you tell them you're eternally grateful for their support.
If they get shocked, things don't work out most pleasantly, drop it there.
They are your parents. They will understand; whatever time it takes. They will support you.
ReplyAgain, your realization and acceptance is admirable. Congratulations!
ReplyCongratulations!!!!πππ
Call everyone in your family to come together (like over dinner/lunch) tell them it's for a special occasion/announcement..to expect something unexpected.. maybe cook something special/make a dessert and then tell everyone
Make it a fun/happy announcement..if their reactions are hostile, don't lose hope my dear...it may take some time but they'll eventually come around
All the best dearππ...do share with us how it went..I really hope I can find your post laterπππ
ReplyWhile I hope your parents aren't like that, they might tell or force you to take therapy. NEVER DO THAT! If you find out that they're talking to / called some therapist, be alert. NEVER TAKE THERAPY!

ive been where you are and sweetie, its hard but you need to tell them. if you dont want to tell your family, thats fine but tell your friends. you have nothing to be ashamed of and there are thousands of people, me included, who support you and what youre going through. sit down with someone and tell them straightforward or casually play around to your sexuality, for example, if youre a guy, just say "man i saw such a hot guy yesterday, istg i might be crushing" something like this
and if they dont accept you, they werent good friends in the first place.
best of luck hon
ReplyOnly your family, your parents care about you, support you. Friends don't.
Just tell your parents.
When they support you, you tell them you're grateful.
ReplyAsk yourself if your really ready for it, and if you do it will be great. In time your family and friends would have react differently but if they saw that your happy with and so they will be

You have just made the first step to happiness because realizing and accepting who you are is the best feeling in the world you can live your life and be happy don't ever hide who you are you will regret it when you get older and if your friends are not accepting or support you then are they really or were they really ever your friends as far as parents that one is hard my parents hate me and don't accept it and as much as it may suck at least you can be your self Because pretending something your not is not fun it get old and tiring best of luck and best of wished to you write and tell us how it goes
