Will my family accept me ? If not, what do I do ?

They can if they are willing. If they don't, make sure you know you aren't to blame for their unacceptance of you. Some people just are stuck in their own ways.

It all depends on your family's views and your relationship with them. In general, people who truly love and care for us won't abandon us, and even close-minded families may give you a chance to be listened and understood if their love is real. However, it's safer to come out first to people you already know or suppose to be supportive of LGBT realities - inside or outside your family. This way, their support will make you feel stronger, and you'll know there will be someone by your side if things don't go that well.

Your family should love you no matter who you are or who you choose to be. Although things might be difficult and challenging at times we always have to remember it will get better.

I've constantly struggled with that question. I still do. My grandparents don't accept me as I am because I am a free spirit and I choose my own path rather than the one they tried to set out for me. I have accepted that I will never be seen as one of the family. It wasn't easy, but I did it. You don't need their approval. You are wonderful the way you are! Don't let anyone tell you otherwise. It won't be an easy thing to overcome, but it IS possible. A good support system will help. We are always available here at 7 Cups! You can personally request a listener as well. Even if they aren't online, you can send them a message and they will help schedule a time to chat!

It really depends. Try bringing up the topic of LGBT first to test the waters. If they aren't currently abusive in any way and seem fine with the subject, you might be totally safe coming out! If that's not the case, however, don't worry. Try finding some friends that accept you for positive reinforcement. Seek LGBT folk out online- we're here, I promise! There are always people who will accept you. Don't worry, and stay fabulous.

Your family may or may not accept you. I know, I hate saying that. I absolutely hate saying that. Hate it. If they don't, get a close friend to help you. Believe me, they will support you out the wazoo.

They are your family they should accept you and if they don't explain to them why you are how you are then maybe they will understand you better. Communication and understanding in family members goes a long way.

They probably will accept you, they're your family! They love you! And if they don't accept you (which they probably won't) then they aren't worth it. SImple as that

Try to gain acceptance by politely asking, don't blame yourself. You deserve better, and they will always love you

I personally had to keep my sexuality secret to a family who would not accept it. I don't worry about what they think anymore because even though I love them, I need to be who I truly am.
