The saying "tell me who your friends are and I will tell you who you are" refers to "you are who you hang out with." Humans are pretty adaptable creatures and can blend in with our surroundings. Depending on who one is spending time around, one would sooner or later begin acting, even if subtly, as those that occupy ones time. For example, if one doesn't smoke and hang out with a bunch of smokers, one will end up giving in to peer pressure and pick up the habit. If one were not the academic kind of person, hanging around academically gifted people would give one the incentive to be the same, therefore; "you are who your friends are."

How do you tell your friends be mad if you tell them your a lesbian?

You mean ' How do you tell your friends are mad if you tell them you're a lesbian'?? That's easy, they avoid you and make fun of you publicly. It also means you need to get new friends. If you mean "How can you tell if your friends will be mad if you tell them you're a lesbian?" the easiest way is show them you support lesbian/gay rights. If one of your friends says "that's so gay" (meaning that's stupid, or something like that) tell them that's not a good thing to say. Saying stuff like that is offensive to lesbian and gay people -- it's like saying "that's so black", for example. If one of them makes fun of lesbians, object. Tell them you don't like that kind of talk. If one of them says "Why? Are you a lesbian?" you can either say "yes" or "what if I am?" Your real friends will be your friends no matter what!
