Hey Sophia....yes, that is one of the downsides of a so-called 'free society' ... a person can be a homophobe, completely bigoted, a full-fledged jerk. That is their right.
They do NOT have a right to discriminate or bully anyone based on their opinions. I also, don't hold with the 'you have to live with your choices' comment, only because I don't believe sexuality is a choice...otherwise as a most people prefer to conform, as apposed to struggle, most would not choose a sexual disposition that would lay them open to ridicule from bigots....but that's just my thought on it.
I agree, telling friends who truly care for you, should not be an issue, but I also understand perhaps not everyone needs to know within your circle of friends. It's totally up to you, of course, based on how close you are to them. And your comment about most of the people you talk to 'pretend' to like you, doesn't sound like much of a friend. And if they are not friends, then their opinions mean squat, in the scheme of things.
At any rate, we're here for you.
