I’m 15 and I’ve been afraid of my dad for a couple of years, I’m afraid he’ll find out I’m a lesbian and that I’m on social media talking to people I don’t know. I’ve never given out my real name, or stuff like that, I’ve only ever given out my age, that’s it. The people I talk to are also around my age, 15-18, and I barely ever even talk to them. And it’s not even like I’m trying to be in a relationship, I just want people to talk to. I’ve been homeschooled for a few years so I don’t have a choice, what else am I meant to do if I want to make friends. I'm also afraid that he’ll find out I talk to my friend who I’ve known for over 10 years, this friend told me what being gay meant, and he has always seen them as a bad influence. I’m tired of being lonely. I’m tired of being scared all the time. I don’t know what to do.
