So I joined this site because I am in the closet and just kinda came out to myself only last year. I am 20 years old, female and have always questioned if I liked girls, especially after a big crush in 6th form (which I tried to deny to myself).. but anyway now I know there is part of me that does have feelings towards girls. I am studying abroad, so no longer surrounded my friends and family. The distance has allowed me space to know myself better.. but even still I hate the idea of telling my family. I feel like they would be beyond awkward about it.. I feel kinda alone with these feelings and not sure what steps to take Thanks for reading

Hey Blue6. I enjoyed moving from one side of the country to the other for university. I let myself go, a fresh new start and did many things I would not do near my family. The distance really helped. But now I'm home, I don't feel I can be my true self. But, welcome and I hope you can learn things about yourself here.
