    Okay, so recently, my best friend of two years became my girlfriend! I really want to tell my parents, but they might not let me have sleepovers with her anymore. Should I just keep it to myself? :confused:

    Ummmmmmm, I think that you should if they're supportive. Just remeber you can still hang out, but I think they'll trust you- if you havn't done anything before, it's not like that will suddenly change.

    If you think they will be accepting, it's probably safe to tell them.

    if they're supportive about it, go ahead. although about the sleepovers, i don't think any parents are too fond of their kids being in the same room with their partners. you can let that slide =P

    Congrats on getting together with your best friend. If your parents are supportive, and you want to tell them, go ahead. It will feel freeing that they know about this part of you. As for the sleepovers, if you come out to them, the sleepovers may end. They most likely don't want to think about their little girl doing it with anyone under their roof. Good luck and I'm so happy for you that you have been able to come to terms with your sexuality at such a young age.
