My friend told me she likes a girl?

Question

My friend just told me today that she fancies another girl in our school. She keeps telling me she can't stop staring at her.
She also admitted she used to fancy me too.

I am okay with it, and got no problem with it, but I am scared for her because she say she cuts herself over it and says she has even thought of killing herself over it. I kept telling her it was normal for our age (we're both under 16) and it'll just be a phase but she says when she is 16 she will kill herself if she still fancies girls.
I told her she might be bi because she fancies guys too, but i hate seeing her so angry.
This girl she fancies is going on holiday soon so my friend has only got tomorro to tell her. (My friend WANTS to tell that girl.)

How should she?
and what can i do?

she keeps saying she's scared she might fancy girls all her life but she is stressing about it, she get like chest pain and everything cos of the stress of it all

Answer 1

try and convince her to see the school counsellor. it's not the sexuality that concerns me it's the self-harm

Answer 2

She really needs to talk to some one..a counselor at school. If she cant accept this part of her life then she will continue to be this way until she can come to terms with either being gay or bi. Please help as soon as u can, so she doesn't hurt herself any more.

Answer 3

man thats not cool! there is NOTHING wrong with being gay or otherwise-why would she off herself becuz of it?sounds like she needs some help-she def needs to see an outside source(other than friends or family)to speak with.

Answer 4

Tell her that there is no problem in loving someone from the same gender of her. If she needs further help please e-mail me and I will send you some telephone numbers for organisations who would like to help her Confidentially.
