So I'm not sure what forum this belongs in so I'm putting it here until I'm told what forum it should be in.
Okay so I understand what the meaning of pansexual, bisexual, asexual and that stuff, but I'm kinda confused by what my own sexuality maybe. If anyone asks I'll will say what sort of people I'm attracted to but only if someone asks.

I'll admit that I'm kinda scared as to what I will do to come out.
I once brought up that there was a lesbian couple at my school. My dad made a comment that made the rest of the night sorta awkward for me (Again if someone asks I'll say what he said). My friend even said that she finds the concept of two guys kissing each other sorta of weird but did not out right say she's homophobic. And when one day my dad was joking around with me and since I am unsure of my sexuality I said I was asexual. He asked what it was and I said that it meant to feel no attraction to either sex. He didn't look to happy about it. sweatdrop

its a bit hard to help you guess what yourown sexual orientation is if you dont tell us anything.

as for comming out to friends, if they cant accept you for you then they arent worth keeping as friends. family can be a bit harder. remember you dont need to come out to everyone if you dont want to. i chose just a couple family members to come out to and let the rest think im straight

my dad is a bit umcomfortable with gay things and sometimes makes rude comments without meaning to offend, but he was still very accepting of my orientation. he isnt happy that i like women but he is ok with it enough to still love me

Kinda funny since I've noticed that I like people who are either older or younger than me, slightly effeminate men or slightly butch(? Not exactly the term but I can't think of anything to describe the type.) women. I'm starting to think I lean towards pansexual due to the fact I could care less if they're hermaphrodites or had a sex change or cross dress and things like that. Since there is no one I like that at my school this is a guess but I spent about an hour thinking about it.

My friends I guess would accept me. I know at least one would.When I told her about New York legalizing gay marriage she was like "Yay New York. ....does our state have gay marriage?" I still have yet to look that up. My friends and I all agreed that we liked each other and got along because we were different from the other people in our school so I think nothing much will change.

Coming out at all is what scares me. I have a terrible fear of judgment that I don't even speak loud enough that people hear me when I'm sitting right next to them. I'm not sure if my father will accept but I think he will get over it. I guess I'm just going to have to find out. sweatdrop I have a bit of a habit of just blurting out whatever I want to say so I might end up doing that. >.<

Ya. At this point I'd say I'm pan.

I told one of my friends. The one I mentioned above. She said it was my life and I make the decisions and stuff. Nothing changed. Now that leaves my family and three friends. One of which is terrible at keeping secrets.

You remind me of myself.
I'm also afraid of judgement, so I had a hard time figuring out who I was until just recently when my friends invited me to go to a gay pride parade with them in Dallas. I was ecstatic to go, so I asked my mom if I could and she said no for various reasons (she says she's not a homophobe, but that could be an misunderstanding on her part). After fighting with her for several minutes and her calling me gay and crap, I realized that I don't care who I date as long as they love me and have feelings.
Try to hang in there~ I'm sure your family will understand, and your friends will take some time to get the jist of the idea.If they leave you, who cares? True friends will accept you no matter what. :3
