Hi, Andy! Welcome to this site.

How old are you now? And are you in the U.S.

Hey, I Think I'm Gay , I'm Attracted to men? From the inside my heart says to tell people about my sexuality but I don't thing people will understand. My Father Is Very Homophobic, so I try to pretend I'm into football but really I'm not, I've tried to slowly hint them but nothing worked. I'm also afraid about my friends?is it weird , I look men on my laptop? I'm a popular guy... I Have a set of my best friends.. I tried to tell the girls I'm not into them and to not make them feel like I'm not gay I say a fancy someone else... I live a lie but can't face the truth please help me , regards andy.

Im 15 , From the UK

Andy, if they were your true friends they woulnt care... your dad would get over it, just worry about finding out if you are truly gay before you tell people, because you might just find out that you like both guys and girls. Maybe you'll fing that you only like girls

It's never easy telling people you care about that you are different then they are. But, if your friends are true friends they'll continue to care about you even after they find out. If they don't, they were never really friends to begin with.

Your dad may be shocked, he may be angry, he may even hate you for a while, but he's your dad. He may learn to accept it after a while, but I'd wait until you're older to tell him. Also, wait to be sure.

Being a teen is a confusing time. Make sure you know for sure how you feel before you tell anyone. Until then, you could talk to a counselor about the feelings you're having. You can also come here, we will never judge you.
