@EXOLOVERYEHET I think he's homophobic too..So, I'll keep myself a secret just until (if) he found out the truth. So for now..I'll shut up and deny everything

If you guys are close then I think he might have some idea. He might not even fully understand that you like girls and might just think you have a fluid uality. Honestly I think you should take it slow. If you want to open up to your fam, then open up to him first if he is not as religious. But honestly, if he jokes about that stuff in such a positive tone, then if he really homophobic like your parents might be?

@liquorandice yeah..I think he is just joking but who knows what's in his head right? Anyway..I'll try your method next time

I think it really depends on your brother's personality. He could easily just be teasing. I know a few people who have joked around like that to me and when I flat out told them yea they got surprised.

Try doing this next time: the next time he says something, for example "is that your girlfriend?"

Say something like "if I had a girlfriend what would you do?" or "would you believe me if I said yes?" even if it's a joke (or really say anything that demands a response). If he tries to laugh it off act serious but if you feel like after being serious he starts to have an extreme/negative response laugh it off.

Hmm, it's really hard to know because it's harder to tell with girls than with guys.

@PappiLovesHoseok Thanks for your support! This is why I'm here..for the good community

@GraceyPanda That sis... I hope you’ll gather all the courage in the worlds and make them realize that their daughter is as sane as any other girl around. Because there’s nothing wrong ♥️ I’m here for you if you need support

@PappiLovesHoseok Hmmm..thanks for the comment! But, I don't think I could do that (Coming out) to ANYONE in my family. They will not understand..I kept listening to them especially my mother talking about how she doesn't ACCEPT homouality and They are REALLY religious people. I'm already a "trouble" in the family and I don't want to make my reputation worsened by that. That's why I only could "let my feelings out" here in AFF

Well he might know. Actually I wouldn’t know for sure since this might be just a brother going all jerk to his sister， no offense of course, it’s the siblings vocabulary xD. But if he knew he might be referring to this so you could open up for him or feel more calm even? If you have dead trust in your brother I think you can come out to him. Since he might be the support and stress reliever you need now. But of course you have to weigh everything twice. But it’s okay, you have to love yourself for who you are. It all starts from your own self. You need to be your mental support because hell could break a leg anytime. Fighting girl! 🙏

@Darthearts Alright! I will

I ghost-wrote this, istg. I’m in the same exact situation as you. Even with the brother thing. I never believed in this coming out thing, especially not when lgbt still hasn’t been normalised. Don’t put yourself at risk of getting kicked out of your house. Stay safe. Only tell when you’re in a safe space.

@seafoodyayaya Thanks!

@GraceyPanda That's alright. I really hope things go well for you! :)

@seafoodyayaya Wow..That's true.
but, I'm pretty much a scaredy cat.
So, I'll keep quiet about it. If they found out..then, we'll see what happens.
Anyway, thanks for the response! Really appreciate your comment

If you have a good relationship with your brother, and if you know he won't insult you or make you feel bad, nor hit you etc., you should tell him. I mean, if parents were to ever find out, he could protect you. But if you think he might react in a negative way, and if he ever calls you out, tell him girl group you stan are mostly because you want to be like them (and if you're nothing alike them then add) but you can't,, and if he ever finds out something, say you have gay friends and you're just trying to understand them by acting that way and then, tell him he doesn't have to trust you and that it doesn't matter if he doesn't believe you, say "God knows the truth" even if you're not the religious type, but it might shut him. But if you're brave enough, then simply face him. Whether people accept it or not, if they're treating you differently in any way, no matter who they are, leave them. Also, religion is supposed to make you a better person, so if you're a homophobe or using any type of agression towards lgbt peeps then you're just an . No matter how much someone cares about you, if they're doing you wrong and if you tell them and they disregard it because it's not a wrongdoing in their eyes, leave them. It's much easier to live without those people and miss them, rather than to live with them and deal with them.
