I can understand your frustration with the whole 'having to earn your mom's respect' thing, because personally I think after 14 years she should have some for you. You're growing up and becoming a young adult. You are still finding yourself and she should give you some credit and respect that. Its not easy to come out in our society now' days. For the most part gays are looked upon as 'socially unacceptable' and shunned for it... So I just want you to know first of all I AM SO PROUD OF YOU! I can tell you're a smart individual so your mother should be able to hear you out when you tell her. Tell her this is the choice you have made and that this is honestly how you feel, that you want her acceptance and that you're only telling her this because YOU respect and care about HER and you hope that she can do the same to you. Let her know you love her and you're not doing this to hurt her and that you really want her to understand more than anyone.

I wish you the best, sweetie!
