Homosexuality?

ive been feeling really trapped lately.
im a lesbian and people suspect so they try to put me in situations that will prove if i am or not...i just want to shout it out and let it be known but im afraid or rejection from my friends..ie they'll disappear when i need them the most to stand by me and my way of life...
what should i do..
???

i cant see your friends blocking you out. they know that you are and they want you to come out with it. i had friends like that and when i told them they were like well duh just chill out calm down and wait. find the best time you dont want this to be something you just blurt out. if they are trying to get you out then maybe its time. if you feel that they are being a tad mean about it then find your self and your friends. start meeting and talking to a new circle then once you come out you have two groups to go to. the well if their your friends then they wont care isnt the stuff you want to hear because if they arent your true friends then your still stuck with no one. I believe they will be ok with it. yes things will be awkward come sleep over time so just tell them you dont have a crush on any of them. if you do however tell that person first that you are gay it will be hard but its better they find out first if they are comfortable with you being gay give them some time then tell them that you have a thing for them. it would be awesome if they returned the feelings but if not things may still be hard. so my true advice is wait for whats good for you dont force yourself because they want you to you need some time this is a very big point in your life. explain to them how hard this is to say when you tell them make sure they know your really putting your self out there. in the world today i bet they would understand.
best of luck:-)

If they disappear then they aren't really your friends now are they?

If they are really your friends it doesn't matter if you are gay or not.. Since you want to come out of the closet I say go for it. Anyone who doesn't accept you after you come out wasn't your friend in the first place.

If you lose your friends, then they weren't worth your time anyway! Be proud of who you are. Even if you don't fit in with everybody, you can be unique, and that's just as good. The world is very judgemental now, but take pride in yourself and hold your head up!

If they are your friends, they will still be your friends when they know the truth. If they aren't, you didn't need them anyway.

Many, many moons ago, I fell for a sweet girl at a party. I was there with my best friend, and one of her friends from work. She was shocked to put it mildly, but she still stayed by me. I lost a couple friends, when the truth got out, but for the most part, those that really loved me, still do.

Since then, I've realized I'm not a lesbian, and am happily married, and he knows about my past, and loves me anyways. But if you are, you are, and you're still you, no matter what wrinkles your skirt, and those that love you, will still love you!

Come out when you feel comfortable, but make sure you do it with your friends first, then to others. That way, you will know who is going to support you no matter what and who will leave your side.

this is a lesson to find out who your real friends are , and i wouldn't be ashamed of the fact that you are a lesbian ,it is so common now a days and very acceptable so tell everyone and be proud of who you are!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

anyone who leaves you because of sexual prefence is no friend of yours. a true friend will love you for who you are, no matter what.

I came out to my friends last year and none of them hated me or anything. A couple did not talk to me for a while but all of them accept me know. If you are ready to come out then be proud of who you are and do not let others bring you down with their close minded views. Because ultimately they are mission out on being friends with you and they were never really worth your time.

I have a feeling your friends already know, friends usually know you better than you know yourself. I don't think you have to worry about your friends. I am currently dealing with a co-worker friend who is pretty sure her daughter is a lesbian. I tell you, she has shed so many tears with me - it would all be easier if she would just tell her friends & family. Good luck, but I don't think it will be as bad as you think.

I was in your shoes. To be honest, if they are your friends and they don't support you when you need them, are they really friends?

I had 2 life long friends (and I'm 41) which I have known since gradeschool. When I came out, they said they loved for who I am. However when I finally met someone who makes me happy, and we had a commitment ceremony, they both refused to come. I haven't spoken to either one of them in months.

You need to prepare yourself for this possibility. But realize when a door closes, a window opens with something more real and honest.

Some people just can't get pass their narrow minded upbringing. If the catholic church acknowledges us - why can't anyone else?

I would sit them down and tell them the truth and if they don't like it then they really weren't your friends or they're in shock because maybe they're not used to being exposed to that kind of lifestyle.
I've had friends come out to me and I always told them that no matter what they'd be my friend and they could talk to me.
