I need some answers here. So I’m questioning my sexuality I thought I was straight but even as a child I didn’t quite feel right and felt connected to lgbtq. I defo like boys but maybe girls as well. Regardless the point of this post is that I have told my mum, best friend and my cousin who’s also part of lgbtq. She was very accepting and helped me as was very nice but my auntie was horrible to her when she came out and she took it out on me last night. Kinda complicated but basically I asked her in a half sarcastic but also wondering way whether I came across straight or not. She then had a go at me telling me this was “nothing to joke about” etc etc for an entire essay. She told me her coming out was hell and etc. so she took out her terrible time and the fact that I can joke about it with ppl that know and with myself bc nobody’s abusing me or not accepting. I know she wants the best for me but her inner trauma of it all really came out quite aggressively on me last night and idk how to reply. I’ve seen millions of gay ppl joke about their sexuality so I know I haven’t done anything wrong I just have very supportive ppl and it’s more chill for me aside from the inner confusion and stress. Anyone got any opinions on this? I feel angry at her for having a go at me like that and trying to tell me what I can and can’t do but I also understand that’s coming from her inner trauma as I’ve seen how my auntie treats her and has always treated her. (My auntie doesn’t know about me)

      Just let yourself learn. Ignore anyone else and keep yourself open to experiences you are comfortable with. If you end up with a boy or a girl it really doesn’t matter as long as you know you are happy

It's understandable that you feel angry and confused about your cousin's reaction. However, it's important to remember that her response is likely rooted in her own traumatic experiences and not a reflection of your actions. It might be helpful to approach her with empathy and understanding, acknowledging her feelings while also expressing your own perspective and need for support during this time of self-discovery.
