So... I am most definitely a bitch. 


So I know I promised you guys I would update this... and I will, I keep my promises. But I have been incredibly busy lately. I just started high school this year and there has been a lot of drama and homework. For example, one of the biology teachers got arrested because he is a pedophile. Also the wifi at school hates me, and I couldn't write on the chromebooks at school because wifi kept going in and out, and when I get home I am either swamped with homework, or have no access to a computer, and if I try writing the chapters on my phone they will come out as pure crap. Next... my grandma and mom found out that I am gay. They read my wattpad so they found out through there, but I still have to officially come out to them because my dad and sister don't know. Three of my friends are going through a depression phase, one of them for the second time, so I have to be there for them. Next I had two friends over at my house and they had like an in the moment make out session in my basement... my friends are messed up. But anyway... I am starting to get the hang of having this much work and balancing it all, so updates should start arriving. I'm sorry I didn't give you guys an update on why I wasn't updating, but here it is. But I am still a bitch. You don't need to tell me. But real quick I would like to give advice to those who are in similar situations and to those in my situation but have homophobic parents, (like quite a few of my LGBT friends.)


For those who are afraid to come out, but know they have noting to fear: My advice is, just do it. You can do it in your own way. Maybe you want to tell them in person, maybe you want to write it down somewhere or even send them a coming out meme. But I say just go for it, because the longer you wait, the harder it will become and the harder it will be for your parents to wrap their heads around it. Not everyone in the LGBT community have accepting parents. Some end up being kicked out, or verbally and or physically abused. You are lucky, so make use of it and just suck it up and tell them. Me? I know I am lucky to have mostly accepting relatives, but I have friends who aren't so lucky. Some even though they haven't come out to their homophobic parent are still being verbally abused, and if they come out then it will definitely get worse. You are lucky, and you don't have to worry about that, but there are those who aren't so lucky.

To those with homophobic parents: My advice: don't tell them. At least not right away. Wait until you are out of university, have a steady job and a steady life where you aren't at risk to be forced to move back home. Once you are at that point in your life, tell them. They are your family and they deserve to know. Doing over the phone, in an email or in person is up to you. And who knows, they might not accept it at first, but they might accept you. But if they don't then you don't have to worry about your safety, because you will be away from them, and you don't have to see them ever again. And it'll be hard to take their disapproval, I know that. But they are your blood relatives and/or raised you and have the right to know about that huge part of your life. But at the same time, you might care to much about them to risk losing them. But at one point, you could accidentally give up that information and their reaction is just going to be worse. 

Quickly to those who it might be too late for that advice and you still live with them: Don't pay any attention to their insults. I wrote an entire poem about how you and I and everyone else like us are not mistakes, or accidents or trash or any other insult against us you might be able to think of. If they are taking their anger out on you physically, you HAVE  to get out of there. Go to a trusted friend's house, and don't be afraid to tell them what is going on. Just get away from those people who are hurting you.


Ok. again I am sorry for not updating, I just have a lot of friends in situations like this and I noticed when I went back to read comments on chapters 9 and 10 of this story, I couldn't help but notice people in situations like mine or who can't come out because they have homophobic parent(s). And I just really wanted to give them my own take on advice for this situation. I plan on updating as soon as I get the next chapter written, it's already almost half way done, and I hope you guys aren't too mad at me. 


BAI!

P.S. I started watching death Note while on the bus and I love it. I have become even more of a stereotypical teenage girl... (no offense to those who like anime)... well as close to it as I can get being gay... anyway I will see you guys when I post the next chapter, and I would also like to know what you think about my advice. you can DM me or just comment I don't care, but I would like to know.
