8 years ago+59 59 0If you could go back to your younger self and tell them one thing, what would you say?
If I was able to travel back in time, and saw my younger self, I would tell them that everything would be alright. That it's okay to be attracted to the same gender - to have feelings for another guy. Many people do. It's life and it shouldn't make you feel less than human. So grow a pair, be yourself, and enjoy your teenage years. You'll get depressed and feel alone - so reach out. You have friends and family who care a lot about you and wouldn't dare turn you away if you told them. Don't throw them to the sidelines, because in 10 years, you will be a much happier person.
