I am not close to my family, maybe because they can't accept that I'm a lesbian and I already have a girlfriend.. It's really hard for me because my own family can't accept me for who i am... Eventhough they don't say anything I feel it that they can't accept me.. I can't talk to them because I can't control my tears once I spoke to them. What should I do? I feel so much anger in my heart right now!

it is really best to talk to them and tell them all your feelings. that will help you lessen your burdens.

I'm really sorry to hear that your family can't accept your sexuality. Stay strong. You are still young. In time and as the years go by, they'll understand. Try to find a support group in your neighbourhood. I'm sure that there are lots of young people like you dealing with the same situation. Just keep trying to talk to them. But don't push it too much. Tell them you love them and you need them in your life. I don't know what else to tell you. I can't say i know what you're going through because I'm not a lesbian. Just be true to yourself. Surround yourself with good friends. You are not alone.
