Just tried to come out to my sister...then froze. I told her I had been accepted as a full member on a website and when she asked what one, I froze. I just said, awkwardly laughing, "Um, just a website?" She laughed and said, "I don't wanna know." ARGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH.
Do you regret it? Will she be accepting? If so then do it! She's your sister, she'll love you regardless.
I regret freezing!! 'Cause now I'm freaking myself out unnecessarily. Yeah. Plus, most of her friends are gay so I suppose she'd kind of be a hyprocrite if not.. Argh, I don't know.
I've blown too many opportunities as well, and I regret all of them...can you find the courage to talk to her right now?
She's going to a party in a few hours, but I'm seeing her tomorrow. Is it better to just find the courage and tell her tomorrow instead? I just don't know how to say it.. How to tell her..
Hmmm...tricky situation, I know exactly how you feel. You told her you became a full member on a website, right? When you said that, what did you want her to do? Obviously ask about it and force yourself out. You want her to know. I'm not trying to force you, but you will feel better about yourself. If you do wait until tomorrow, will you actually do it? Or will you make up an excuse? I did that for months, believe me I know how that goes.
I don't know what I wanted to do. I suppose have her ask about it, then I would tell her it was an LGBT advice forum.. I like to think that I would tell her.
It's 1000x easier for me when the person asks...I suppose you could just wait until she does ask, but do you think she suspects? Can you wait for her to ask in the meantime? She's your sister. She has gay friends. She loves you. Any worries you have are probably for nothing, although I completely understand not wanting to tell them. My brother's best friend is gay, and I struggle telling him, even when he asks me directly about it (he knows but I can't tell him). It sucks, but if you can find the courage then you should do it.
I can wait. I will tell her, and I think I may do it tomorrow... But I'll just need to wait and see. I know I'll tell her soon. I'll hopefully tell all my family soon..
Alright, no freaking out in the meantime Good luck when you do it, I'll keep an eye out in the coming out stories section! Have a good rest of the weekend.
I know how you feel, I tried to tell my Mom once, that I was Gay & the words wouldn't come out & neither could I, if you pardon the pun
Hang in there--I know how hard this is. Once you tell her, you'll be very glad you did. It'll be like a weight coming off your shoulders. --Zoe
