Answer
It is natural for every person to undergo different phases of his/her life.
Every phase in life is different and poses many difficulties and challenges.
It is, therefore, important for a person to consult and seek advise from
his/her seniors, for example, one's parents. You should not feel difficult
to discuss with your parents as they are well aware of the many changes in
your life. Your parent's advise and guidance will be motivated by their love
for you and it will be in your best interest to bring up the courage and
discuss your feelings with them.
and Allah Ta'ala Knows Best
