Hey, my name is Alex and I'm 14 and living in England. I've known i was gay for about a year now, but tried to keep it inside, saying it was just a "phase". But after a while, I knew i wasn't attracted to girls, but I decided to confide in my friends (only the ones i trusted, though) After my friends had accepted me (I'd even told my friend, a self-confessed homophobe, and he doesn't really mind at all!) I've also told my mum and brother, and things couldn't b happier. My advice to those who have problems: Tell the people you know won't think any different. As for the others, is it their business?! You don't have to shout from the Empire State building that you're gay if straight people don't have to do the same!
