Help/Support ► Being Gay in a religion that is horribly against gays.

I got it and i understand. its so hard to be gay or be different or not a jw when all your family is or something. its annoying because of the expectations you have to fulfill because of it. i hate that and its so difficult for me. I feel i have to be a jw and if i dont i let my whole entire family down. it sucks. and of course i feel guilt but i also realize love is love! i dont care if its wrong in the bible. its unfair and love should be love no matter what!

Exactly. I don't understand what the big deal is, yet everyone insists that it is a big deal. Because of certain circumstances this whole situation has put me in, I've actually gotten severely depressed on many occasions because of it. The funny thing is that they notice that I'm unhappy about being there when I don't want to be. And yet... they just seem to not get it.

I know they mean well. I know they care. But it only hurts me even more.

You get what I mean.

Yes I understand what you mean, and also, its like i hate going there now, i hate seeing everyone and the fact that they all hate me for being gay, its just stupid. I think its awful that people shun you when you are doing one wrong course, they act like you are evil poison
