it is. dont worry. it is okay to feel this way we cant always be xactly like our parents, r we'd having nothing to do. nothing to argue about. its fine to feel this way. talk to me if you ever want to kay? ;-)

Well having been around the block a few times I have to agree with Mike, it's okay, you can't make everyone happy, it's a big thing yes, but with time you can open up and be honest to them and tell them, and if they can't accept you right away, I bet they will with time, it always works out in the end for the most part. I started coming out to friends at 16 and then to my parents at 18, my mom asked me because I was having so much stress and pysical issues that she knew something was eatting me up and she asked me if I was gay, I won't forget it, it took me hours to answer yes, I beat around the bush and told her lol. But she knew that the stress was really getting to me, of having to hide it. It was okay for the most part, even my italian dad didn't like the idea at first but then he still respected me and even tried to hook me up with an italian guy he knew lol. SO that's progress. The only one I had trouble with was the Penticostcle (spelling) Aunt I had who was a Rev. and she was and still is the biggest hipocrite!

All the best and feel free to ask anything that can help ya! :)

I'm sorry. I just really love the idea of "Adam and Eve, Adam and Steve". It's wonderful to see such a clever use of rhyme in alienation tactics. But, seriously. My advice would be to develope a thick skin and to be true to yourself (as cliche as it sounds).

oui oui, it is. you cant change your personality for others. you have to be you. and speaking from my knowledge, your a gr8 person.

yes, of course. because you can't live by the guidelines other people set for you. if it's going against you, then you wouldn't be happy. =] so there you go

it is perfectly fine i felt the sameway once.if everyone was was xactly like our rents life would be as exciting as an emty glass

I know it's difficult to be self assured, but these are your feelings and you can not control them, so don't be ashamed:-) Of course it's normal, and of course it's okay. Historical, generations change and 'go against' their formers beliefs so...
try not to stress out too much;-)

ya i go agenst my parents all the time. they look down on gays too and i told then i was bi-sexual but they don't know i am gay

of course its ok.

they dont know how you feel, only you do.
and if thats who you are, you should be happy no matter what.
and its great that you can be so happy with your sexual orientation even though your parents are against it

It is defenitly ok. I still cant tell my parents that im bi/lesbian. Im still not sure what i am yet.

hell yes! be yourself man! as long as you're happy with who you are, no one matters.

yes it is. i am in the same situation for 3 years now i have known that i am bi and my parents feel the same way as yours. i cant tell them either. it is perfectly fine to feel this way. you are who you are and you cant help it. no one can. its people like out [arents that make it seem bad. they need to stop being close minded and figure out that we are no different than them. it is perfectly fine to be gay.

if everyone had feelings like you the world would be so much better ^_^ i am very proud to be the way i am i couldnt even imagine being straight :S when my mom found out i was gay it wasnt as bad as i thought it would be we are acually closer now that she knows, my dad on the other hand is a drunk abusive guy who i wouldnt imagine telling besides the fact that i hate him ^_^ but anyways im off subject. It is perfectly normal to feel the way you do. and i admire that you feel that way. :D

don't forget, parents are just people! they are like everyone else, with different opinions. if everyone was exactly how their parents wanted them to be... that would be strange lol

THATS IS HOW MY FAMILY SEES THING THATS WHY I CHOOSE TO NOT SAY ANYTHING I THINK THERE IS ALWAYS GONNA B PEOPLE WHO THINK THAT BUT AS AM SEEING IF PEOPLE REALLY LOVE THEY WILL NOT CARE WHO U R THEY WILL SEE U AS U
