Well first you have to remember that true friends won’t have to make the distinction of your sexuality to base your friendship on. If they are good friends, they will understand. Secondly, if you are hating things right now then maybe you should step back and think if this is the right choice for you. Some people do it to be rebelious because it’s in there blood, others to make someone else mad…etc. Is this really who you are? If it is, then you should be happy you’ve found yourself. Your friends, they are not gonna take that away from you if they truly love you.

Your family may not like it, but they will have to accept it because they love you. Remember if you are ashamed to tell anyone about it, it may not be the right choice. You should never be ashamed of who you are. Maybe you should try and contact people who are like you and find out how they told their parents.
