Jay, calmn down, sit and think this out. Your parents still love you. They did not throw you out. They did not refuse to help with your schooling. Maybe now it is time for them to be educated about being gay. Im sorry that they went thru your emails. I know that that has broken your trust in them and they need to know that. But I know deep inside you love your parents and if you leave you may cause a rift that cant be fixed. See if you can come to an understanding with your parents. You can never have any other, they are the only ones you will ever get or ever have. Dont act to swiftly, think things thru.

Give them some time, and continue to tell all the lies you need to in order to ensure their financial support. Pretend to be the same kid you were before. Talk about the "just a phase" thing, and just say it seems to be passing.

Not a great thing for parents to go through a PC. It doesn't show much trust.

Meanwhile install Spybot, which has a shredder for file deletion (advanced settings), and also change to a much stronger password. It's free.

I'm pretty new here and to tell the truth, I have some problems of my own as well. Still, I'd like to voice my opinion if you would permit me....

It's a hard thing living with homophobic parents, something I know all too well of. And I know that the first instinct is prolly to run away when something like this happens. As tempting as it may be, It would probably be best to hold off on doing something before you have the chance to think of your actions. If you think you can't stand it at your place one second longer, go to a friend's for the night. But don't just up and leave with no plan whatsoever. That route will probably end you up homeless or worse.

If you're still planning to leave, I suggest getting youself financially stable first before leaving the nest. This of course is assuming that you're old enough for a job. If you're not, then that would be a bigger problem, what being a minor and all. If such is the case though, leaving would be even more dangerous for you. It would be probably better for you to put up with you're parents till you're 18 or 16 (if you can get yourself legally emancipated) It sucks I know, but If you choose to run away, It would be a lot worse.

Of course, this is only my opinion. The ultimate decision is up to you. Do try and think it through though, that's all I'm saying.

Broken...

I see your eyes so dull and plain,
I feel your heart in so much pain.
They knocked you down and hurt you bad,
To see you this way it makes me sad.
The ruthless anger and soul untrusting,
Friendship denied and relationship rusting.

The distance between the road walked alone,
Cold and bitter apart you have grown.
The anger devours all the good deep inside,
The chasm you face grows deep as is wide.
The walls that you build protect well indeed,
But the anger still grows and thrives, its a weed.

You try to move on but to hatred you're chained,
To continue like this a lot more is lost than will ever be gained.
The love of a friend you might push away,
The cool breeze on a warm summers day.

The hate scared you deep and the darkness is vast,
But you need to move on and not dwell on the past.
Your path I will share and your hand I will take,
So from my heart to yours a pledge I will make.
To empower and hold to help and to guide,
A friend you have here right by your side.

Tempo, that is incredibly good. Did you write it yourself?
As I believe I know Jay reasonably well your poem captures the situation remarkably as it stands at the moment.
Hopefully the support and advice he can get from you and the friends here will be some consolation to him and help him to make the right choices.

Personally, I think by far the worst thing is that they invaded your privacy in such a manner. Homophobia might stem from ignorance, but intrusion on that level -- especially considering you're a legal adult -- is pretty unforgivable. I think that is the primay issue you need to address with them.

I am not sure how anyone can justify an argument that "they would be disappointed in you" for being gay. It's like being disappointed in a daughter for not being a son. It's childish and unfair.

I'll be on MSN later if you'd like to talk to me.

Best wishes,

David

Jay, I know very well what its like to hate your parents. I also know what its like to leave and never have anyting to do with them again. I understand that sometimes that is the only decision to make, but please concider all your options. Some of us old farts have been down the same road and suffered the same indignities. If you still decide to leave, pull your best friends close. Let them know whats happening. Most of all stay on your guard as there are people out there who will use you and abuse you. I know all you can get from us is advice, please dont hessitate to ask. We all love and care about you because you are one of us. We are here for our own whenever one needs us.

Hi Jay, they should not have gone through your emails.
But if you are gay then they can now adjust, be aware it could well be a big shock to them.

If you love them and they do love you then given time all will come to terms
with your sexuality.
Do not move out that is running away from a situation and would make it hard to return.

stay calm and think it through. Smile



life is to enjoy.

Now you have your own castle. How does this affect their support for college?
