I'm a ministers daughter as well!.....it's not easy, it's actually very difficult to live up to standards. I'm sorry your going through this. You know what, ministers preach how forgiveness and unconditional love is essential to life. You need to come out, and remind them of that. Remind them and tell them that God (if that's what you prefer your higher power too) loves you no matter what you are.

I do recommend till your 18 to tell them though, just in case they can not accept this. That way you can be on your own and safe.

I don't know your parents, but personally, my dad would rid of me. But I know what I am, what I want to be, and I've accepted the fact that I can move on with life whether he accepts the way I live or not.

I was un married, living with a man, and pregnant, and he didn't speak to me for years. So yes it happens, but never once did I allow his hypocrisy make me feel bad. I know love, and at that time, I was united with (my now husband), and marriage was unnecessary.

I wish you luck. Don't be ashamed of who you are. If you are a lesbian, then more power to you. You live life for you, not anybody else okay. I hope this all works out.

From ministers daughter to ministers daughter.....I know it can be tough.....pm me anytime hun.
