    I found out when I was 11 or 12 that I liked girls. I've always been terrified about it but I just need to get this off my chest. Any tips on how to do it subtly but no so much that they don't know what I'm talking about?:bang:

    that is a hard one , maybe when you are all talking change the subject and say hey what do you think about homosexual's ? and see what they say if they are supprotive maybe go ahead and say hey guess what I am ______ and see how that goes .I wish I could give you better advise but I am not sure what to say other than good luck and I hope it all goes well

    Do you know how they feel about LGBT people?
    If not try talking about Alan Turing Alan Turing - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
    A gay genius mathematician and hero, who was convicted of the "crime" of being gay, and committed suicide as a result.

    Assuming they have a positive response just say you need to talk about something important, then if they let you talk say "I'm a lesbian" or "I'm gay" whichever you like better.
