Well, not to be cliche, but if theyu2019re your real friends, they wouldnu2019t leave you for being in the closet. Most people (Iu2019m talking about the teenage demographic) would be acceptable to a person who is just starting to come to terms with their sexual identity. If anything, assuming that they arenu2019t homophobic, they would be happy to be told about your sexuality, since some people never share at all. The only advice I can give you is to only tell them when youu2019re ready to share, donu2019t feel pressured.
