What’s the typical reaction when someone comes out? :-
“No you’re not.”
“There’s no such thing as being gay.”
“Where did I go wrong?”
“What happened to you? You were normal till yesterday.”
“What happened to you?” “This isn’t you.” “It’s just a phase.” You know what these direct at? CHANGE Anyone telling you these things is asking you not to change, which they have no right to do. You are free to change your mind and change it again, for change is the only constant. It’s your life and your decisions. Change is unexpecting. Change is sudden. People hate change because they don’t want to lose control. Don’t be one of those people because change is inevitable and you need to be able to deal with it.
“Wait so you were into girls, but now you’re saying that that didn’t mean anything and you’re actually into guys. Make up your mind!”
You have to do no such thing. The only person you have to answer to is yourself. There is no obligation for you to stick to one decision. Don’t worry if you’re 16 and you have no idea what you want to do in life. Don’t worry if you’re 25 and decide to change your job. Don’t worry if you’re 40 and you just realised you’re not who you thought you were.
Dont rush to make decisions. Be it college majors, career options, sexuality or gender preference, you have a lot of time to discover yourself. Exactly how much time? Your whole life. 🙂
