At the end of the last school year, I found that I was becoming attracted to my best friend. See, but she's of the same gender as I am, so it was difficult for me to deal with. I finally told her and she treated me like I had become a completely different person. She started acting rude and mean and she wouldn't treat me like a normal person until I told her that I didn't have feelings for her anymore. I figured that I would just ignore my attraction to members of the same gender, but I now have a "crush" on a girl that I met last year. She knows about my orientation and people that I met this year know, but I can't feel comfortable coming out to the friends that I've had for a while because of the way my best friend treated me.
I also can't tell my parents because my mom's crazy religious and if she finds out, she'll drag me to church to be blessed or hit me in the face with a chair, or something. And though my dad's not religious, he's a total homophobe, so it's pretty much out of the question.
I don't really know what to do. I don't think I'll ever tell my parents, but I am tempted very often to tell my friends. I get scared when I start to tell them, so I just keep it to myself around them.

i agree with evasive warrior. real friends accept u for who u r, not ur sexual preferences. i have a guy friend who is gay, and while some ppl may say it's not the same bcs i'm a girl and he's a guy, i think the acceptance issue is the same. when he told me i was perfectly fine with it. i treat him the very same way i used to. he's a real friend, not just some phony, and i wouldn't risk losing that over which gender he likes. point being, if they r ur real friends, they will accept u for who u r, not what u like. of course, u need to understnd that hitting on them would b wrong if they like the other gender, i'm sure u understand, but i say it nonetheless. the important thing here is having everything "straightened out". and like evryone has said here: if they r ur true friends, they won't mind.
