Why don't you sit and have a discussion with them. Try to make them understand your feelings. They are your your family after all , i'm sure they are going to support you.

@hazel18 I empathized with you. Your family was never closed to you, seeing that you were in foster care, and shelters. You have to face the fact, their opinions would never changed. It’s difficult enough as a full time parent, to accepted that your child is a lesbian. For your parents, who were barely in your life, it’s worst. They having no real knowledge of you, and never took the time, to do so. Please embraced your girlfriend, and your step family, and turned another chapter in your Life…Be strong, the best is yet, to followed. SG friends are here, to support, and be supported.

The biggest thing you must remember is that you are worthy of love and acceptance. It's understandable and natural to want acceptance from your birth family, but also understand that you don't need it. You are a beautiful, unique person with gifts to offer the world. If your family cannot get past one small facet of who you are in order to fully love you, then they aren't worth pinning over. It sounds harsh, but you are your own person. At the end of the day it is not any fault of yours, but your family's close mindedness that perpetuates the situation. At the same time, you have to show them the acceptance and love that you wish from them. Maybe if they see you treating them lovingly, they will start to understand how to return it.
