I am living a lie!
I live in London, Ontario. I have held this secret for years. I am too afraid to reveal this to my family and friends I know I will be looked down upon if I told them or worse yet they may disown me. I come from a very conservative Christian family. If I come out of the closet I will bring shame on them. The only ones that understand how I feel are the ones who are out of the closet already. Sometimes I wonder why I am like this. Why can’t I just be normal or just not be so afraid about anything? I have been living a lie and its killing me! Only my boyfriend knows that I am gay.

It gets better. I came out to my family 1 year ago & it went way better than I expected.
Life outside the closet is waaaay easier than life in the closet was. IT was horrible, I don’t think you realize how much work it is until you leave it.
The freedom is in letting go of the outcome & making the best choice you know how because the truth is you have no power over the outcome.
Good luck. Lots of love
