Youre 15 and youve been in a serious relationship?
How do you THINK your family will react? If they hear news about gay people do they smash glass and scream out "Blimey faggots, I'm glad me boy Charlie aint no pansy." Or are they more like "Cheerio, I'm so glad those homosexuals speak up for themselves. ~ Bravo "
I mean, wouldn't you know better than a group of random internets?
I'm 16 although that doesnt make much difference, well my idea of a serious relationship probably differs to yours, Im assuming you are older etc. and They're sort of somewhere in the middle ground between those two statements. And the reason I posted here is because there isnt anywhere else to turn, my friends are sort of avoiding the topic :/
funnellegs, As for your friends, you might want to take it one-by-one privately and see who's the least uncomfortable it. (Of course there is the chance that you might find someone who is as gay as the day is long but is still so freaked out by it that just the mention of it causes him to have a meltdown.)

This pile of snot has a look on his face that I've always seen as saying, "Hi, I'm Mr. Clean America Hansen with Rape-mind NBC. (Hey! C'mere, little one! Come sit on my lap and we'll discuss whatever comes up! Heh, heh, heh!) I'm really just a useless turd but millions of stupid, illiterate Americans in TV-land love me and I draw one fucker of a fat paycheck for being a squeaky-clean looking asshole playing my obnoxious part as a shitty blond, blue, white guy for a sleazy watchdog organization that calls itself 'Perverted Justice' who are so imbecilic they don't even know their own name is grossly ignorant and unbelievably illiterate. But, hey, what the fuck? Don't quite like me? Well, you can suck it too!"
Before you do anything, you may want to hang around your family and do some things to test the water and watch their attitudes towards it. Where your from and local attitudes'll play into it as well.
If you're that terrified about it, you'll probably want to wait until you're out of the house. Then again, since you were in a serious relationship I'm going to assume that your family has met this boyfriend of yours and there weren't any serious problems ensuing from it. Even if you didn't out and out say he was a boyfriend, I'm sure they must've more or less put two and two together.
Just don't do it the way I did. I came out to my Mom and sister as a way to distract them from something really irritating that I did earlier that day. :P
Seeing as you're still dependent on your parents you might want to wait until you go to school or are in some other way self-supporting if you don't think they'll react well. That said, I wish I'd come out earlier. I'm pretty sure my family were more hurt by the idea I thought they wouldn't take it well than by the news itself.
