yeah, having religious parents/judgemental parents would be really hard. my dad's kinda in denial - it hasnt come up again since i told him, and i told him after my ex and i broke up so he hasnt had to deal with me dating a girl (long story as to why i had to tell him, not v interesting).
i guess it's not *that* hard to fake straight until you get involved with ppl, that's when it becomes difficult. dating a girl was the catalyst for me telling most of my friends, and they were all really cool about it. i feel a lot better now that i'm not trying to hide who i am. but you gotta do what you gotta do, and if hiding it works for you, then go with it. i just got to a point where i couldnt be fucked really. hehe, laziness. but hten again i guess it's less risk in yr12 cos if ppl decide they dont wanna be friends then it's no major loss - if they judge you by sexuality they probably werent worth staying in touch with after yr12 ended anyway. *shrug*
