Hey I need some slice of life, or anything actually, that’s similar to “I think our son is gay” or “mom, I’m gay.”
I really need some stories that talk about what it’s like to be a closeted gay facing society’s harsh standards and expectations to make myself feel better. Any recommendations?

https://www.mangago.zone/read-manga/welcome_to_room_305/ this one is from 2008, so keep that in mind, but even then i'd say it's ahead of its time in many ways. first 20 chs or so might seem repetitive but keep going. very touching character interactions including family/sibling dynamics, deals with homophobia and transphobia.
So this is not exactly what you’re looking for because it’s not about being gay,it’s about being asexual, but it does touch on some things you mention, so it may still be an interesting read for you.

hey can anyone recommend me any GL (or BL if u don’t have a GL rec) that has a character that still hasn’t accepted themselves as queer? Or just negative views of themselves being LGBT but then still finding someone? I really need a GL with this! ლ(´ڡ`ლ)

Thank you SO much for your recommendations, especially ‘run away with me girl’, that was actually such a good read I LOVED IT. If it weren’t for u I def wouldn’t have read such peak fiction, do u have any more to recommend? (づ ̄ ³ ̄)づ
