Plus, I have never told anyone this but a few years ago I was finally diagnosed formally as being on the very low mild end of the autistic spectrum (cannot process emotions properly, hate changes to routines, etc) and told a manager at work because I was moaning about them changing my schedule around on me last minute again. He also found out about me being bipolar, so I feel a bit better now that I have been open with people about myself.

I wish I could be brave enough to tell my family all this.

I'm so glad you've been able to be honest about this. It will get easier as time goes on. Most people today don't really care about a persons sexuality, they're more interested in the person.

It was much different when I was younger. At least these days if I want to wear pink trainers nobody really looks.

One less thing to be careful about will take a load off your mind.

The chances are that your family probably already suspect "something". My mother knew I was probably gay long before I actually told her.
