what do you think about queer denial..esp religious one idk I don’t want to accept that I might be gay or maybe I do but I don’t know how to accept it I was bought up and is in a homophobic environment and have homophonic people around me so I don’t know what to feel ummmmmmmmmm And I think I have more to learn about homosexuality
hey love. tbh i spent a while trying to think of an answer to this question because that is also my situation in life rn. it took me so many years to accept my queerness, it took me almost 8 years to get to where im at right now. i used to cry and pray that these feelings go away, i used to pray that it's just a phase but it wasn't.
i finally accepted it but unfortunately i am aware that because of my environment and my upbringing i will never truly be able to live the way i want to, and present myself the way i wish to, and i accepted that.
what got to me to accept myself was actually, believe it or not, my online friends. my online space became so comforting and safe, a place i can finally be free in (not entirely free unfortunately but that's another topic) i finally have friends who accept me, who know me. i have to pretend in real life, but i never have to online and that helped me come to terms with everything.
idk how to help you overcome your denial, it's truly different for everyone, i can just hope that you can feel comfortable with yourself in the near future. religious denial is a nasty bitch and til this day im not over it, and it's been 10 years... i dont think ill ever be over it.
hi glowy this is adi just popping in to say ily and hope u have a great day :D
About the recent answer I think people do notice what you say esp if something weird if not everyone there’s one person who remembers it.
as you are growing up what are the things you notice and wants to give advice to the ones younger than you
honestly? id say one of the most liberating things i realized is that im not that important. no one cares. no one cares about my outfit or my body or my skin or my face or my behaviour. no one cares no ones watching like a hawk no ones talking abt me 24/7 im not the center of the universe literally no one cares just do whatever you want and dont stay up at night thinking abt that one weird thing you said/did bc no one else noticed no one cares
no that thread actually blew my mind i've always been like haha jungkook queer because it's been obvious but seeing it laid out like this i think i peed a little
