I'll start off with recommending the book "Gothic Charm School" (link brings you to Amazon)
It's definitely worth a read for Baby Bats. It'll answer a lot of your questions and also teach you how to deal the outside world (e.g. negative reactions, parents/relatives, employment) with your undying love of the subculture.
I strongly suggest getting into a lot of the music. Bauhaus and Siouxsie are a great start. A lot of people who replied have mentioned Sisters of Mercy, which is a good one. Clan of Xymox is another. The Cure is highly recommended, especially their "dark" albums (Pornography, Seventeen Seconds, Disintegration and Faith)
Post-Punk and New-Wave genres are worth a listen as well. They're popular in local goth clubs here next to the usual Goth Rock, Darkwave and EBM/IDM/Aggrotech music. Bands include: Joy Division, Depeche Mode, Echo & The Bunnymen, New Order.
