Well,are you really sure that your gay.
Because some times they may think it's just a "Phase" that your going through.
You have to be real sure that your gay and if you are just tell your mom, She'll understand.

Are you underage? Do you live with her? If you are an adult just tell her. She cannot be strict about how you feel and the way you are. She might get really mad. That is her prerogative but you should not worry about it. She is suppose to love you know matter what. You really never know how they are going to take it. You have to be happy and live your life for you. Don't let them bully you or make you feel bad. I would just tell her that you are gay and go from there. Good luck.

Just be honest... It may shock her.. but then again maybe the reason that she is so strict on it is because she already knows you are but is in denial. When I came out most everyone but my dad(who is clueless) already knew and said that they were wondering when I would tell them.
You need to be honest with yourself or else you will regret it. In my opinion it is better to have her be upset then hurt yourself for keeping it in forever.

You dont need to tell her right now mate.
Just be whatever you want,nobody is stopping you.
She will understand and will find out you're gay and your feelings sooner or later.
Your mom is juts like my mom,she is so strict! She doesnt like lesbians and gays:(
Good luck mate.

Well, this may sound bad, but you should wait until you're in a position where you're secure.
It's horrible, but some parents have been known to disown their gay children.
So, wait until you're on your own, and then find a way to let her know gently.
Good luck.

Do you feel the absolute need to tell her? If not, you should wait abit, and don't worry about labeling yourself. It's your life and you can live it the way you want...just continue to make good choices.

Just have to be open about it. Be ready for the rejection. It's going to hurt she may expect or not just be ready.

I would tell her after I graduated from college in your position. If you know who and what you are and can love yourself and others, you are in good shape.
