Hey, I’m 20 and married, my wife isnt pregnant yet, and I’m gay. My question is, how did you handle your divorce? I’ve told my wife I am gay and that I want her to be with a guy that will love her fully as well as myself deserving somone who can give me what i need in a marriage. Well….I’ve told her that like 5 times and everytime she somehow convinces me that its not a good idea, i break down crying and end up telling her, “I’ll just stop being gay”…well we all know thats not possible. Sooo yeah, how did your husband handle you being gay?

I have been closeted, single for 60 years. Came out this year. I have been laughted at, ignored and rejected by most gay men for waiting so late in life. I have been told that I waisted my life for nothing.

I am going back into the closet where I can at least find peace with myself.

Hello, I’m 21 and I am a lesbian. I applaud you for coming out to your friends as bisexual. That’s pretty neat the way you came out. I have never heard of it that way. Haha, it’s natural for some friends to say it’s about time. It’s like they know you better than anyone else, and just wait for you to tell them. My suggestion for you is to tell your parents’ when you feel most comfortable. You never know how they are going react unless you take the initial action to telling them. There is nothing wrong with only having your friends now. I unfortunately came out because I couldn’t keep it from anyone anymore. My parents’ said “We knew all along, we were just waiting for you to tell us.” “We are accepting of this because you are our daughter and no matter whom you chose to love is fine with us.” It’s not easy to come out in the LGBTQ community. But I wish you the best of luck on your journey.

Comment on One Lesbian daughter and One transgender Daughter by Sara Marie

Hahahaha I was caught playing doctor with girls as well. My family kind of put two and two together. I mean I didn’t fully come out as gay until I was 13 and I just turned 21. My parents’ waited for me to tell them even though they had their suspicions. I started with my best friend since preschool, then my family and then my friends. I am the oldest of only 2 kids and my brother is completely straight but my family as well welcomed me with open arms. Oh my goodness, I am sorry your mother had to find out that way. There is really no such thing as a normal child anymore. Especially with how our society is now days. It will be quite the journey for anyone in the LGBTQ community once they finally come out. You never just wake up one day and chose “oh I’m going to be gay today.” It really doesn’t work like that. It is a unique gift to have. I am proud that you took the step to letting people know your transgender. That’s even more difficult in the world then being lesbian or gay. I find transgender people inspirational. I applaud you for telling people your story.

Hello, I am so happy for you that you decided to take the biggest step to come out to your friend. I completely understand that it was probably terrifying because of the fact you are not exactly sure how certain people will react. I’m happy that your friend was very accepting and was able to be there when you needed her most. It’s not necessarily a bad thing to be closeted. You chose to wait till the time was right for you. I hope you feel a little bit of relief. Some families may not be accepting. You are definitely right on that. But you never know. I thought my family would have a tough time with it but once I told them they reacted like “We knew you were, we all were just waiting patiently for you to tell us.” I was very surprised but they are my biggest support system. My suggestion to you is to do what you feel is right for yourself. If you think you’re ready to take that next step in telling them, and then by all means go for it. However, if you still feel a little on edge, just take your time. There is no rush in telling people. I am so happy for you and wish you the best of luck in the future.

I’m confused and I don’t I know what to do…
since I could remember I’ve always been quite different from everyone else, I’ve always closed myself from people because I’m scared of being judge.
i’m 18 bisexual and i really need some advice i been hiding away for so long, that is now affecting my life. i keep pretending who i’am just to please others but inside i’m not happy nor i’m i satisfied with my life. i have a girlfriend and she’s amazing i do love her but i don’t know if this is what i really want in my life?? i know is wrong and that’s why i want to do something about it before is too late…

Comment on “Please Don’t be Gay when you grow up” by joteca243

I’m 14, and ever since I was eleven I knew I liked men. I am so afraid to tell my parents. I tried one time, but my mom just couldnt stop saying how terrible it is going to be for her, knowing she has a “gay kid.” There’s this guy at my school that is also gay, and I really want to ask him for advice. This other guy keeps calling me gay, and I think he somehow knows. And I have a major crush on this one other guy in my class, I cant tell if he is gay or not, and i dont want to hurt him by asking, and i dont want to let everyone at my school know by asking him out.

ITS SO CONFUSING?!?!?
