When I came out to my family as gay they considered it a joke, phase, or something for attention. They didn’t think of asking me if I liked someone or anything. What shocked me more was that all my friends were the ones who supported me and cared, but it hurt that my family didn’t care or didn’t want to believe that their daughter was gay. They started trying to get me a boyfriend, which was not wanted of course, and I told them to stop but they continued to ship me with guys who were my closest friends. IDK if they are homophobic or just confused, but I can’t bring myself to hate them for not being happy for me. (F/13/Gay/Lesbian)
