Hey I'm 13 and I have confirmed with myself I'm a lesbian.I just never felt right having a "boyfriend".. Then I fell hard with my bestfriend. She is the most beautiful girl ever, but she is straight. I started having more crushes on girls and when I would hold girls hands and hug them is always felt right, like since 3rd grade. I really want to tell my mom I'm gay, because she would be the most supportive. But my dad would freak out. So should I come out or not?
To your mom first, she will help you then help your dad accept that. Don't worry about your dad, he'll accept who you are because he is your dad.
I agree! If you feel like your mom would be supportive, tell her first, that way you won't feel alone and will have help from someone that knows your dad well. A good time is whenever it feels right to you. Maybe when you are alone and there is a good mood set you can direct that conversation and calmly tell her. Good luck, doll!
There is always an opportunity for you to come out. It will come for sure. Just wait for it because the opportunity for it to come to you hasn't come yet

I don't know exactly how your dad is, but only come out to him if you're sure it would be safe. By that I mean, that you wouldn't get abuse of any kind from your father afterwards since you're still young and can't live on your own yet. Depending on how he is with it, he may have a hard time with it at first it seems like but sometimes people need time to adjust. So keep that in mind but don't let him or anyone tell you that being the way you are isn't right. For telling your mom, you could tell her in a letter, or just at a random time when she's alone, or ask her/text her to set aside time to talk. Whatever works for you! Best of luck!<3
