I can't.....
I can't tell my friends.
I can't tell my parents.
I can't tell my family.
I can't tell my teachers.
I can't tell my community.
I can't tell anyone i meet.
I only have myself.
No one else.
I don't think i have God anymore.
I went to this trip with my church last week to Alabama.
I connected with God but it all went away when i read about homosexuality in the Bible.
I can't give up who i am.
I can't be something i'm not.
I can't.
I just can't.
I need support from someone.
Anyone who will tell me its going to be okay.
Anyone that will be my friend.
I seem to be low on those these days.
All i need is support from someone.
Will you help me?

Aw, honey. Believe me, it's going to be okay. You don't have to tell anyone if you don't want to, but don't feel like all you have is yourself. Trust me, you don't. You have all of us here, and we love you. We accept you for exactly who you are. You don't have to be something you're not. You're not obligated to. Stay true to who you are. You'll find someone you can trust enough to tell, and then one day, you will meet someone. If you haven't already, of course. If you have, that's great. If not, you will.
(((hugs))) I've been where you are. I'm bisexual. To this day I still struggle with the prospect of telling people, as well as the whole religion situation. I want to be a good Christian, but...I don't know. I'm in the same boat as you. I feel as though I connect with God, but whenever I hear the homosexuality issue, it just knocks it down. Makes me stray away. Because I know I'm bisexual and nothing is going to change it, that's just who I am. No matter what the Bible tells me.
Hope I was able to help some. (((hugs))) I love you.

You're always in my heart, you're always on my mind. When it all becomes too much, you're never far behind. And there's no one that comes who could ever take your place. Because only you can love me this way.

I hoping to get baptized over there when I get the chance. They don't require that you do, but I want to anyway.

Wash away the stain of my old church (I apologize for the harshness, but I really don't have too many nice things to say about it). Everyone there was so bitter and uptight.
I just feel like getting baptized in this church will be better for me.
But let's not get into a religious discussion here; not the appropriate thread (but please feel free to PM me if you want to continue the conversation  ).
