As PA said, it only gets better when youre able to come out. I realized that I was gay pretty young and wanted to come out to everyone.
I was very happy with myself being gay. Hell, wouldnt want it any way... silly Heteros - UGH... yeah, bi is pretty cool... but I am gay. Problem was I came out in the mid 80s. and it was others who had some weird thing about acceptance.
I told a few dorm mates and they disagreed saying I wasnt gay... OK? I was a student leader and during one of our leadership conferences came out to the whole group... a couple days later I asked one of my fellow leader members what he thought about me coming out - he looked at me with total shock! He hadnt processed it at all and said that I had NOT said any such thing!
Just seems that NOW everyone is a bit more comfortable with gays, especially in California...
But you do have to be comfortable with yourself first... find the peace within yourself concerning your homosexuality and the others will accept yourself as you accept yourself.
good luck
