#It feels scary

It's only been a few days since I decided to identify myself as genderfluid, I already knew I was aroace for a while, but I started noticing patterns about my interests and whatnot, and I feel this better describes me.

The issue is, it feels scary to even consider coming out, because I come from a family with lots of conservative influence, also because where I came from, people in the LGBTQ+ community were seen as "freaks", and I'm afraid of being dismissed or mocked for it.

Besides, I doubt they'd even take me saying "I've never felt attracted to anyone" seriously.

It's more because I don't even dare to share my more feminine interests, because I know it won't end well, and the few times I accidentally let it slip, I couldn't tell for the life of me if they were joking or not.

It's mostly just fears, I feel more comfortable like this without a doubt, but I'm also not really used to this way of seeing myself, I'm just looking for some support, because I really need it

The first and second paragraph are literally me, and the rest at least fit

Seeking out other queer friends, online or in real life, would be a good thing for you! What are some concerns or doubts you have, if it's okay to ask?

It's perfectly fine to ask, it's just that I can't think of much right now
