Welcome to Gaia! ::

Ha ha. So, my girlfriend Molly kissed me a year and a half ago, and we realized we liked each other. Except for that I had a boyfriend (riiiight) at the time. I also had very little confidence and after lying to yourself your whole life about not being a lesbian, it's a little difficult to come out with. We were secretly together for some time, told a friend, told another friend. Second friend told two other friends who got angry at me for cheating on Boy. Huge fight insues, results in Molly and I alone for a few months (as of now, my friends and I are again friends finally). By then the whole school was talking about us (once again, all girls catholic high school, lol). Told my mom late one night about 6 months after it had all started. She suspected it...and wasn't mad or anything. She told my dad. They were both very accepting, though it was very akward for a little while after I told them. So yeah. Forced Out at school, came Out at home...life is good.

I've actually only told all my friends, and I've started coming out over a year ago.
Well, I'd tell anybody who asked, but I generally don't announce it to the world like I'm oh-so special.
As for my family, just my brother, and not my mom or dad. I don't know why, though. I just can't bring myself to tell them, even though they're not homophobic, and I'm sure they wouldn't care...

I understand that. It's really hard to tell your family. It took me a long time to build up the courage to tell my mom. I think she told my dad, but I'm not sure, and my sister read it on my diary. I think one whole side of my family still doesn't know, but they're all Christian homophobics who always try to save me, and we're not close at all anyway. I could marry another girl and they would never even notice.

Yeah. For me I guess it just depends on whether or not I end up with a girl.... I see no reason telling the unaccepting part of my family if I'm not going to marry another girl.

I've told most of my friends and my girlfriend that I'm bisexual, and no one really cares. Except for one guy who thought just because I was bi that I must like him. He was ugly though. And I've told a couple of my friends, and my gf that I'm trans. I want to try and tell my mom I'm bi, but I can't manage to. I don't want to tell her the other thing, because I'm not sure what she'll think. I know she really didn't want to give birth to a girl though.

My parents think it's a phase too. I'm not dating a girl at the moment, but I have in the past that they knew about, but they just don't seem to get it. But they're alright with it, even if they think it'll pass. They don't really like to talk about it because it's kind of awkward, but they're dealing with it fine ^.^

Lucky. I think my mom is slightly crazy. I mean, I'm crazy in a fun way, she's slightly crazy in a... needs medication way. Well.... yeah, one of the things she does is she will tell me about gay characters in movies and books to get me to watch or read them and she will tell me about her gay friends and the gay guy she almost married for the sake of platonic companionship but if I so much as say anything about homosexuality she freaks and starts yelling at me about how I'm obsessed. sweatdrop
