How do I tell my friends Im a lesbian?

Question

So my names Brianna. Im 16 turning 17 in August and im a lesbian. I know for sure im one without hesitation! I play softball and pretty much friends with mostly girls. The problem is i havent told anyone besides the people iv dated and my mom and aunt. My friend on the team is a lesbian and everyone knows bout her, but still nobody knows about me. They think im straight cuz i pretend i am, but still im tired of hiding it. I want to tell them but dont want to be judged expecially by the ones im closest to. Im a huge tomboy, guys clothes and all. Maybe they know idk, but i rly want to tell them myself and dont know how. Any advice???

Answer

People in general can't keep a secret, so just brace your self for what's to come, good luck and good life.

Answer

Maybe you need to tell it first to the one you know that can understand you so well then if you think that they know that you are a lesbian they will ask you then you can tell the truth about your gender

Answer

There will be a time it'll come out. I don't think you need to proclaim it. There's a time and a place. Maybe people already know... just don't deny it.

Answer

It a good thing that you told your
Mum. I know your scard of people
judging you. But you gonna have to tell
Them one day or there gonna find out
Them self  and you are not going to like
That but you said this another lesbian
in your school do they judge her

Answer

My english is not good but i hope you understand. I think you should tell your friends, even your closest friends. You will feel so good and you will start to gain more self confidence. And you say that you are scared to loose them but this is you. You are sure that you are lesbian so eventually you have to tell them. 

And trust me, most of them will say, 'we knew'

Answer

Why go through life pretending you're someone that you're not?  There are many people in this world and no two are the same except maybe twins! Lol,  don't hide the person you are just because someone will think different of you,  Believe it or not you'll actually make more friends because they see you have courage and you aren't afraid to express the true you!  If you're worried about your so-called friends not being your friends anymore just because of the secret than they really were not your friends at all,  be who you are and don't pretend to be someone you're not,  that's what makes you unique and one-of-a-kind!
