Recently I began to have feelings for this girl I’m friends with. This took me by surprise since before that I would’ve never thought of liking another girl. I live in a Christian household and no one I live with absolutely hates homosexuals but my stepmom always seems to take things to the next level.

Whenever someone brings up gay people she flips out. I wouldn’t be uncomfortable telling my non step family if my dad didn’t tell her everything I tell him. Only two of my friends currently know and both times I told them I felt a feeling of relief and a sort of bliss. I want to tell my family and friends but I can’t help but think that they’d only try to fix my like I was broken or something.

Any help on how I could deal with this situation?
