when you first decide to approach someone about your sexuality - for instance, your parents - the first leap of faith is to have self-confidence. be confident in yourself and what you have to say to your parents. express yourself in a respectful way and use words of intelligence and reasoning. if your parents are homophobic, that is, they have problems with acceptance that their child (you) is a homosexual, please be prepared for some distancing in the conversation. use words that exude your confidence in your future life as an individual in society with no problems in self-identity. the future is now for you, as you have decided to move forward in life with promising results as a person with new resolve.
