A female United Kingdom age 30-35, anonymous writes:

I have a boyfriend who ive been with for half a year now but i got with him unsure about my sexuality and now i know, i'm 100% gay. I need to tell him but i'm too afraid, plus we live together with 6 other people as i'm in uni. so it's going to be really awkward and i'm sure all my housemates are going to hate me for it. I really dont know what to do.

aunt honesty agony auntYou have been honest with yourself and have come to realise that you are gay. It is a hard thing to deal with but you need to now be honest with him. I know that it is going to be hard. But don't even think about your other mates, it is not there place to judge you, and if they do well then they are not real friends. It is something that can be hard to accept for a person, but you have accepted that it is who you are. Yes your boyfriend may be hurt and upset, but there is no point keeping the relationship going any more. It will only hurt him more in the long run. So sit him down and talk to him and just be honest with him. Good luck.

Shadow Rose agony auntJust do it when he's not too stressed. I had a bi ex who turned out to be gay, and now he's my best friend. He was just really nice about it.

It's better to let him know now, than to lead him on.

TrinityHunter agony auntWell, he IS yur boyfriend and deserves to know. He might be hurt but yu should rather him be hurt because of tellin' him than livin' a lie. I'm not sure how yu should go about tellin' him but yu definatly should. Good luck!!!
