Rejection and Fear

So, I live in a very conservative Catholic family who rejects gay people and don't "believe in them". What they do not know, though, is that they are living, breathing, and eating with one every day. I'm a teenager living in a house of fear. I need to tell them, because being gay won't change my life. I want a family, a good job, and a "normal" life, just with a woman, not a man. I want to share it with my family, but I'm too afraid.
Any advice from fellow "closet-sitting" mates or from bold "out-of-the-closeters"

Thanks!
Anne
