I am currently struggling with being a demisexual panromantic in a family which, while claiming to be accepting, is not understanding. My mother believes that 15 is too young to make any sort of statement on who I am as a person and makes no attempt to understand my views on this- I'm trying to do little things to open up about myself, but every time I think I'll go out and buy that phone case with the pansexual flag on it, I freeze up and think of how she'll ask what it means and then say how I shouldn't be claiming such things about myself when I'm too young to really know for sure.... This is who I am. I can't imagine ever being any different, but now that I have words for it it's taboo. How am I supposed to let her see? (also I despise that this site makes you claim a "gender" rather than sex even though the only options are male and female)

Lied about pregnancy So I had this boyfriend and we knew eachother for three years prior to dating. He knew I had been cheated on before and how I had trust issues. We dated for one year and things were okay until I caught him cheating. He denied it all even though I saw and accused me of being crazy and that he can't stand my jealousy and whatnot even though I did catch him. I then found out he had been doing stuff with many other girls. He was also mentally abusive. Our break up ended badly. We stopped talking for 4 months. We had s** before I caught him cheating and I was still p***** off to see how lightly he took all of it. It was like all four years I knew him...none of that mattered. I read up online that there is this thing that some women can get which make them look and act like they're pregnant when they're not. I had his number and I called one day and left a voicemail telling him I'm possibly pregnant. He calls back five minutes later freaking out. My friend was in on it too. She took the phone and acted angrily and yelled at him. We then hung up and when I picked up I pretended to cry and say how irresponsible he was and that I hope I'm pregnant so I can f*** him over. He proceeded to freak out more. After a month of f****** with his mind, I told him the tests I took at the hospital revealed I had that false pregnancy look. I don't care if it was harsh of me to do that...there are far worse things I could've done to him.
