How the f*** does one come out of the closet? I live in an extremely homophobic country and I’m sure that if I do decide to come out my family and guy friends will reject me. Oh god I hate this world. My parents have been getting very intrusive with trying to get me back to the church, I f****** hate this so much. And school is going to s*** too. It’s not like I want to live anyway
F***

Oof, I’m gay and I come from an extremely homophobic family too. In my case, they wouldn’t kick me out. Instead, they’d tell me “it’s a phase you’ll grow out of one day”, giving me lectures and the whole God and Jesus talk and force me to go to church.
I know what you’re going through, my friend. It sucks not being able to be ourselves due to being surrounded by bigotry. 🙁
I don’t know what your age is but if you don’t feel safe in your country, you can move to another country where homosexuality isn’t illegal.
I wish I could give you a big hug and tell you life gets better, OP. My thoughts and heart go out to you. Always remember that you do matter and you’re a beautiful special human being.
Wait until you’re finally fully independent to come out. It’s much safer than coming out under your parents roof.
And another thing, there is nothing wrong with you. It’s natural to have feelings for one another. There is something wrong with your family and friends on the other hand, they were taught all this homophobia propaganda growing up. It’s their fault for having such bigoted point of views.
Love always wins. Love is beautiful.
I’m 19, currently on my last two months of high school. I’ll survive I think. Thanks for the virtual hug too.
You’re welcome, darling. If you want to talk, I’ll be happy to give you my kik or instagram or both.
I’m not an avid instagram user and I don’t have a kik either. My twitter is @gingerfromage though. Thanks for the kind words and advice, made me feel better. Might just go to sleep now
Alright.
You’re welcome, boo. Sweet dreams.
You think gay is tough? I’m a transsexual. God, spare me from pen pushers. They make life a misery. Whatever people say things don’t get better if damage accumulates. The best advice I can offer is chose your friends wisely. Decent people are decent. Internalised phobia is horrible. Never believe it because it’s not true to you.
I want love too. I might settle for a dog or a bird. Fish are funny too. Its a thought if you ever find yourself feeling lonely.
Shit, my family can hardly stand that I’m left-handed. Can’t imagine being gay.
