hey everyone ok im gay for starters and i have been made fun of my whole life for it and now people at work are starting too and i think im going to kill myself so please talk to me.:(
gakkuhideto answered Friday March 4 2005, 5:15 pm: Don't kill yourself! You are worth so much more than that! If you kill yourself, that's just proving to them exactly what they have been thinking, that you are worthless and don't deserve to live. Someone else said this and I agree, you should pity them. How horrible it must be to go your whole life trying to cover up your own insecurities by discriminating against other people? I can't imagine such a terrible existence.
heavybuhbuh answered Friday March 4 2005, 2:41 pm: At some point in your life you faced the facts. You acknowledged that you are gay and that there was no changing that fact. That, my friend, is a big, big step.
I am gay too. When I am made fun of for being gay, I always flip the situation around in my mind. I feel sorry for them. I am better than them because I am being real to myself and living without any painful "personal secrets". The people picking on you most likely have so much pain in their lives that it is easier to pick on someone else rahter than to look within at their own lives.
Make sure you remain a good person, regardless of your sexuality. Bad people are in every social group. Don't give the tormentors something to hate about you which they will ignorantly stereotype all gays as being that way.

TommiBrowne answered Thursday October 21 2004, 8:15 pm: DON'T KILL YOURSELF!!! You have chosen a lifestyle that many people are against so tha must've taken some kind of heart, don't stop being you now. Many people are teased or tormented over all types of things: skin color, nose size, breast size, gender, capabilities...etc. What you have to keep in mind is this: the things that people aren't accustomed to, they make fun of and blind themselves of the chance for understanding and learning. You have to stay strong, live your life. Hate me for being so blunt but that's how it works. Block out the negativity. Don't change yourself for the things they do. When it gets unbearable, put it in ink and on paper, talk it out with someone you trust. I love gay, lesbian, bisexual people, and heterosexual people. When it comes down to it, that's what we are...people. Some just can't (or refuse) to see that. I know people who are religious (Christians to be exact) that don't accept gays. They judge. Being gay is a sin to them. But...!!! Judging is a sin also. So, when you block out different things that are other than you, you're the one that loses. Keep your head up and make sure that YOU don't fall into the rhelms of judging because we all mess up sometimes. Hope I helped....Tommi Browne [ TommiBrowne's advice column | Ask TommiBrowne A Question ]

If it really bothers you that much change jobs. But don't kill yourself. If you ever need anyone to talk to you can talk to me. Just look at my column it has my info.
SoNuLiCiOuSsS answered Saturday October 16 2004, 11:55 am: There's nothing wrong with being Gay... ur sexual status is ur business... don't try to kill yourself because people around u are too ignorant to understand that... point out their faults... that should shut them up... u should never put up with anyone puttin u down...

Siren_Cytherea answered Saturday October 16 2004, 11:46 am: Think of it this way...You don't really want them to know that they're affecting you, do you? If you kill yourself, that's what you'd be doing. You'd be letting all those assholes that made fun of you know that what they said bothers you. You're stronger than that, aren't you? Come on!
Seriously, don't kill yourself. It's the coward's way out. People need to realize that being gay is not something to make fun of. It's not a defect, or anything. It's a preference. Honestly, guys are easier to deal with than girls. That's why I could lever be bi. Lol. I just hate the majority of my own sex.
I would ignore your coworkers and anyone else who makes fun of you. I don't see any reason to make fun of anyone, gay or straight. It's totally stupid.
Have you ever tried talking to anyone about what you're feeling right now? I don't usually reccomend psychologists, but maybe you could use to have someone to talk to who you know will not judge you, or divulge information you want kept under wraps.
If you need someone non-judgmental to talk to, you can IM me at SirenCytherea on AIM. I'm on every night until around midnight eastern time.
I hope this helps!

Rei answered Saturday October 16 2004, 11:11 am: nonono! if ure gonna kill urself then nobodys gonna talk to u up "there". firstly all those emotional scars from the past that has been inflicted on you should have healed over the years, look at the past incidents and tell urself ur different and very unique. they can make fun for all u care, but what they say isnt important. never ever ever let their comments get into ur head. its worrying becoz some people who get laughed at actually accept the fact that they are items made to laugh at and in the end they suffer emotionally. ending ur life doesnt mean it will end ur troubles. there is always a way out, if only u'll look for it. and u noe what? i believe that u can find that way to overcome people's jokes about ya. all the best <3 [ Rei's advice column | Ask Rei A Question ]
babiigurl076 answered Saturday October 16 2004, 11:02 am: Whatever you do..DO NOT kill yourself!! That is definately NOT the answer! There is nothing wrong with being gay at all. There are people who may think that there are reasons to hate gay people, but there isn't. You seem like you're a REALLY great guy..just try& ignore it..I know a few gay people& that's what they do. I understand that it will be hard at times but there's not much else you CAN do. People can be such jerks these days, they need to get a life. As for you, just go on with yours. A nice, long happy one. Try really hard not to let those jerks get to you ok? Hope I helped..Goodluck hun! :/ [ babiigurl076's advice column | Ask babiigurl076 A Question ]
jazz82289 answered Saturday October 16 2004, 10:54 am: Oh my goodness, they are lil ****** if they are being mean to you for that, DON'T KILL YOURSELF!!!! Because then you will be just as low as they are. Try telling them how much it hurts, take it to your boss, and i know it sounds hard but try to even maybe get a new job. Maybe it's a sign. Everything happens for a reason. Do you have a mate???? If you do turn to them and while you are at work have that reassurance that you are with them and that's all that matters. If not, find one, try focusing on that [ jazz82289's advice column | Ask jazz82289 A Question ]
XxRockon answered Saturday October 16 2004, 9:44 am: That is not acceptable! These ppl at work shuld not be making fun of because of ur sexual preference. You need to let your boss know that they are doing this to u so he an talk them, they are jerks and as hard as it may be you need to try and ignore them. If it keeps up, tell ur parents or someone who you trust. whatever you do, don't kill yourself. This problem can be resovled, and yes it is very difficult to deal with and you have to remember not everyone is like that. These are just people who are losers and don't know how to deal with things. Maybe you should see a therapist or counsler to help you with how u feel. If u need n e thing, dont hestiate to ask.

silentkate answered Saturday October 16 2004, 9:08 am: Wow. Well first of all you don't have to just take their verbal abuse. I believe this is a harassment issue and you may be able to press charges. Unfortunately it's a fact of life that many people put others down to make themselves look better, but realize that not everyone is like this. If those people can't see past your sexuality(which is really none of their business), to the person you are, then they aren't worth your time. Please don't let their words have to power to hurt you, they aren't worth it. Stay strong and remember that you have nothing to be ashamed of, they are the ones who should feel ashamed for harassing someone because of their sexuality.
