What should I do?

I’ve asked my mum what she would think if I was bi but she said that if that happened it would probably be a phase. My dad, on the other hand, when I asked him what he would do if I like girls repeated to tell me all the reasons why guys are great. He was only calm because I said that I wasn’t gay but I don’t know how he’ll react if I fully come out.

His side of the family (apart from my auntie and cousins) are homophobic.

It’s quite funny that my auntie (on my mums side) suspects I’m gay and whenever my cousin makes insensitive jokes about gay people, when she’s around she defends them. Probably because I follow an LGBT+ support profile on instagram and she’s the only adult in my family that has it. When he makes the jokes I just have to sit and laugh while slowly dying inside.

My auntie on my dads side I don’t really know if she does but my cousin has friends who are part of the LGBT+ community (I think she only has like, 3 straight friends) and she’s fine with it.

It’s annoying to me that my outer family supports LGBT people more than my parents do and Its actually starting to get to me. I happy that I have people who support me but it hurts knowing that I trust my more distant family rather than my parents.

Just tonight I started crying in the shower and luckily I was washing my hair so I had an excuse to stay in so long. It’s just becoming so mentally exhausting.

I’m only 14 now, I’m thinking that I’ll probably come out to Mum and Dad when I move out so I have a place to get away from them. Or write a letter/text while I’m on holidays across the ocean.

Thoughts on when and how I should?

(And tips on hiding a relationship would be good for the future😬)
