I basically came out that I was gay to my mom and dad when I was like 13. So naturally the people in my house knew. I’ve had gfs and bfs and what not.
About the beginning of September of 2024 I ended things with my 2 year relationship with my gf.
A lot of the younger people in my life (like older teens/younger adults.) thought I was a lesbian (I’ve never claimed to be a lesbian)
I started dating my now bf since December of 2024 and I love him so much.
Anyway when my brother said are you still dating that boy and i responded yeah I am.
He congratulated me on “being straight” again. (I was never straight in the first place)
And a couple of the other people who were around us said the same thing.
Now I live in the south of the USA so you can imagine the homophobia and what not.
I got outed to my grandmother and she thought I was being “gay” because my sister was gay.
Anyway im just confused when it comes to this whole situation, I already came out. But why does it feel like since I now have a bf as a cis girl im just coming out of the closet again because like im not. I feel I shouldn’t feel this way.
