When we broke up and we decided to stay best friends for the sake of the baby because we didn't want it to affect him in any way and so far things are going great for the both of us. The problem is my family didn't know I was in a relationship with this girl, they thought we were just good friends and now we have split I don't know if I'm lesbian or not, I was in love with my ex very much and it was the first serious relationship I have had with a female, I want to tell my family that I am unsure about my sexuality and about my relationship but I worry that they will judge me and won't take the news too well, I'm scared of the reaction I'll get because they think that gays and lesbians are unnatural..... Can anyone help me on what to do?

First off before you talk to your family I would find out for yourself your sexuality. It may take a while, but you don't need to tell your family right this second.
You may find that you are questioning your sexuality after coming out of such a long and serious relationship.
I wouldn't stress so much over it as the answer will come in time. Give yourself a bit of time to relax and find out who you are, as having been with someone for 3 and a half years and now finding yourself single might be messing with your emotions a bit.
