I'm a pansexual female. I came out to my parents pretty early in life and I was still questioning at the time. I came out as bi, but obviously I don't identify with that anymore.
Basically, I want to be open to my whole family about my sexuality but I'm worried about their reactions. There are certain family members (grandparents, uncles) who I have heard say very homophobic things in the past and it scares me to think about coming out to them.
I've had datefriends and girlfriends before but I felt like I've always had to keep them a secret in my family other than my parents.
I'm still pretty young and I know I have time but it's scary. And I'm scared I'll get too nervous and never do it and then end up marrying a woman.
I mean at least I don't have to worry about being kicked out because my parents are completely fine with it.
But why do I do?
