Coming Out
I am 17 years old and I am a lesbian. I guess I always knew that I was attracted to girls but never thought much of it or felt any different because of it. I have never had any boyfriends or girlfriends and no one has ever really questioned be about it. Recently I have come out to my self and accepted the fact that I am gay. Now if I found coming to terms with myself difficult then coming out to family and friends would be even harder. I have decided I should start by coming out to my best friend but no matter what it never feels like the right time. I really want to talk to someone but I am always at a loss of words. I don’t know what to say or how to say it and I find it really hard to just get it out.

I don’t read anything that sounds like either one of you is unhappy...
i had similar problem few years back. I never felt its the rite time to say it out. but now, everything is fine after i told my frds. try to talk to sb u trust.. or tht u think they will understand first.. ur bff mite be a good idea
they will understand u if they reli r ur bff
just be brave n say it out
It was nerve recking for me to tell my best friend but I knew she wouldn mind, hello! her aunts are married! haha, so I told her and she excepted. Now, my other best friend and counsin i didnt want to tell becuase we come from a strict family but she had gay friends so I told her and she told my family and the whole thing blew up.
We arent friends any more, duh! and i was able to smooth over things with my parents and they think Im straight, yes I conformed. Yes, I lied and yes I would rather be unhappy for now then tell my parents Im gay. Since I havent met my future wife I feel like I dont need to tell them. Why kill them any sooner?
So, think about who you tell or maybe dont tell them and just meet a cute girl and introduce them and then let them figure it out. Hell, I dont know I just wanted to say hi!!!
: )
Brittany, u solved my problem
my advice for you would be to not keep it in, sometimes a secret that is a big part of you can be harder to keep than you might think. best friends are always a good place to start,some how they understand, if you trust them then go for it.
Dear Julie,
I am currently as you are. I am lesbian, and I’m not a much talker. I never have someone to share the idears or experience with me. I am so lonely now. I don’t know whether you wanna make friend and share with me or not. But for me, I always welcome you. So if you don’t mind please sent an email: pich2009@yahoo.com.
I am waiting for you dear!!!!!
