    wow your story was very moving. Dont let those people bother you, they live in fear of what they dont understand and you have challenged their beliefs... Keep treading you will go far! I also live in Idaho and the people here are cowards when it comes to a new way of thinking and seeing things..... Your a tough person to have handled what you do. I hated school and I didnt have bullying I was just depressed a lot lol.. We all have something we have to overcome I guess. Much love dear, keep fighting you are loved by many!

    I'm going to say it straight, because in some situations its best to give a clear answer. I get bullied at school a lot (in my last year now), but I know you won't see it yourself which is why I'm saying it. People, especially teenagers (and teenage girls) can be horrible. They don't understand you, they just know you're different which is why they're bullying you. They don't like people to be different to them, so they hurt you. Sexuality is a choice that can only be made by you, nobody else has the right to tell you who to love. If you want to be straight, bi or lesbian/gay, that's your choice not theirs. So long as you remember that you are better than they are, you'll be ok. School is **** because that's where the bullies are, get out of school with the best grades you can get and you'll do well in life. A lot better than they will. I hope that helps and I hope it makes you feel better. x

      It really does. To tell you the truth around when the bullying started and i was going on that heavy diet i was going to support group after almost overdosing on my dad pain medication, my doctor said something similar to that but the way you say it makes me feel better. Everyone in my new school knows too and it's still really bad but i've gotten better and it's not so hard, i did have a falling out in school for a little while I even walked out of class during a test but this year i got straight A's in all my classes even math and i'm on the honor role... so thanks this does help a lot btw both me and my girlfriend appreciate you commenting on this.

      It's quite ok, I have a lot of gay (well, mostly lesbian) friends, and I've looked after them as best i can over the years since they came out, so I thought I ought to support somebody who doesn't have that help. School can be a really **** place to be, but once you accept its only going to last a few more years, you're fine. In the end, some people are gonna dislike you just for being different. I say embrace it, accept they're too small minded to like you and enjoy being who you are. Then you'll both go far in life. I'm proud of you. x
