Hey @Hozzles, that sounds like a really difficult experience to work through, I'm sorry you've had to go through that. I can definitely relate - I remember feeling very overwhelmed that I hadn't come out to my sister, and I could barely talk or focus on anything she said to me until one night I just blurted everything out.
You're absolutely right, it's not an easy process. The best I can figure is that the people who love and support you often don't mind how long it takes for you to come out to them. Coming to terms with your sexuality and getting comfortable in your own skin is a very personal journey, so if you need more time to work out if you trust someone when it comes to your sexuality, then that's completely okay. You don't owe anyone an explanation of who you are, and inviting them into your story is a gift rather than an expectation, so there's absolutely no rush.
