Most people don't seem to understand how hard coming out truly is. I pace my room thinking about how to say it. I pace up and down the stairs thinking about how I'm going to say it. When I lay on my bed that is all I can think about. I think about what I'm going to say, and if I think about it too much, it kills me. Too many thoughts swarm in my mind. I always try to say something new, but all I can end up saying is the same old words. I told myself I would tell them tonight. Then tonight turned into tommorow. Them tommorow turned to next week. Then next week turned into next month. Then next month turned into next year. And who know's what next year will turn into. Maybe next ten years. I just need to find new people, who don't wanna tear me apart. But that's hard to do.

I'm sorry I lied
I thought I liked you. I believed everyone I told you I "liked" was me being honest. I only just realized I was lying to you and me the whole time. I...

Letter to Jan pt2
Dear Jan, I’m writing you, although you’ll never receive this letter, never read it. I wanted to give you some life advice, like you’ve done for so many...
If your family is homophobic, just avoid telling them. Tell your friends instead. My family hates gays but i am bisexual. Im fine with keeping it a secret, it doesnt bother me. But letting a few people will make u feel better.
ReplyThank you for the advice.
Replyi think u should try writing them a note, or text message, explaining what you are, and that you're the same you, and nothings changed, they may not always have a good reaction at first, but im sure after a bit they'll come to accept it, and if they don't im very sorry, and i understand how it feels, even if they dont accept you, you know who you are, and remember you have tons of people who support you, i understand how hard it is, my mother still has a hard time accepting the fact im lesbian, i wish you the best. (:
ReplyThanks, this helped a lot, I'm also lesbian lol.
Replyyou're welcome, and I'm glad it did (: and that's cool, I don't see a lot of other lesbians too often, just remember you know who you are, and nobody can change that, you are valid, and always will be. (: and if u end up telling your parents, be sure tell me how it went, but no rush, do it when you're ready. :)
ReplyI agree with the first comment. While I understand that this is important to you, it might be wise to keep close ones in the dark if they've expressed some degree of dismissal.
Eventually, they will find out but let's try to make sure you can adequately protect yourself before then, ok? So if someone starts getting toxic or worse, you have plays to stay away from them.
ReplyThanks you for the advice.
ReplyFrom one overthinker to another, take a deep breath. Let's look at the bright side of things for a change, you have figured out who you are as a person. It's ok if people don't accept you. Stay true to yourself and the right ones will find you. And stop frantically thinking about the future, like everything is going to fall apart, cause it's not. You will be fine. Just believe and love yourself and all things good and positive will follow.

ReplyThank you, this helped a lot, it's great to find people who actually care, even if it is online.
ReplyI am so sorry that you have to feel like this. It isn't fair, and you deserve better!
I totally get it. My parents still don't know and I'm not sure if they ever will.
