I admitted i was gay to my Mum. She said she knew for ages. I dont know how she knew but she did. Then I told my boyfriend that I told my mum and he said that he would go and tell his mum. He told her later that night and she said that its fine :D I was so happy. I now dont have to lie to my mum what we are doing :D
Congratulations, keep it up accepting yourself.
Now its time to tell mates.
Thats a problem i got i live with my dad and its going to be hard to tell him :( i keep thinking hell chuck me out and i dunno how to tell my mum either :(
How do i do this
If you think he will do this. Don't tell him just yet.Quote:

If you need to tell someone, tell someone you know who will be fine.
I just told her. I had been seeing this boy for quite a while. No-one knew. And i mean no-one!! Girls were asking me out but i wanted my boyfriend. We had actually been planning on telling our parents for ages. But theres only one way to find out if your parents accept it. And thats to tell them.
how old are you?Quote:

I know a guy who came out at 13 - his parents were fine about it.
I think thats TBS there... almost 90% of the 15 year olds I know are immature little muppets. >_>Quote:

All depends on how mature you are. I just thought as i got older my mum would soon find out. I didnt want her to find out. I wanted to tell her.Quote:

Yeah, I guess. But sadly not every parent is in 100% acceptence of gay's. My friend told his dad and mum that he was bi-sexual and he thought that he was becoming gay, his dad hit him and threw him out the house, after his mum had a word with him, he's back in but they don't speak at all and whenever I see him he looks like he's well peed off and annoyed with something.Quote:

It's a good job I will not have to tell my Mum or Dad i'm gay.
He told me once you'd be out of this house like a shot, as soon as you woke up from the coma i'd put you in.
:o Thats wrong. You should not br threatened because of your ***. :@
Well thats life, not everyone has accepted Bisexual and Gay people.
But my dads problem is that hes Homophobic so ive got a problem and im 13/14

Well I advise, for your 'well-being' and if he's that Homophobic, don't tell him just yet...
Wait till you're older.
well - it's not 'following the rules' of sexuality is it? It's meant ot be boy and girl.
but with parents, they may be scared of not knowing how to treat them afterwards. So they use a defence. Not always the best one but they're just trying to come to terms with it.
My parents told me that if i said I was a lesbian, they'd be upset and shocked but they'd live with it. Mum's totally against gay relationships but she's not a homophobic.
But that is what homophobic is... People against gays and their relationships...Quote:

You gotta come out sooner or later. And you don't want them to find out from someone else.
Heh my mom and dad aren't homophobes and my mom keeps telling me she wouldn't mind if me or my sister were gay - which shes kinda hinting for me to tell her i'm gay. But i'm not just ready.
Are you though?
If you are gay, And she's hinting at it. Then maybe you could tell her now. I know you said your not ready and it's prob's kinda embarrasing. I know what it's like. But it's gotta come out sometime, Why not when she's hinting? She could all ready know.Quote:

I really hate some of the chavs sometimes, but i haven't really been attacked or anything yet.. So i guess it's not too bad. I still haven't told my Dad - it might sound ridiculous but telling your Dad is 10 times harder than telling your Mum.
I guess some people may say it's early as a lot of people come out at an older age, but it felt like the right time to do it. I've more or less known my whole life, and i couldn't keep saying i liked girls anymore so i told some of my other friends and know i think there are over 20 that i've actually told.
Now i'll stop rambling on with my life story xD
Tom xx
I hate my Life atm cos of it -.-
I can't even Tell my Mates -.-
