I know that this guild is all about
acceptance already, but I just wanted
to take the time (after reading all the
coming out stories) and hearing less
fortunate circumstances than mine, to
tell all you whose family is making you
feel less than the perfect you are. Don't
listen to them. And don't hate them, they
don't understand, they are just confused
and for the most part totally stupid.
You are very much loved, perfect, beautiful
and wonderful just the way you are. :3

My coming out was awful.
My mom was yelling at me for whatever, I can't even remember. i ******** up so often back then, because all I could think about was how wrong everything was.
I yelled in her face "I'm gay, alright?" and sat down, and started crying.
She stood speechless, and proceeded to go inside. She started going nuts, and started yelling.
Next thing I know, she's packing bags.
I felt bad for months, until my dad finally got the courage to tell me what really happened.
After I came out to my mom, she ran inside, and started talking to dad about it. She didn't have a problem with it at all. Then he told her that HE's gay. I didn't know, nor did mom. Obviously. She started yelling at him about how ******** up their marriage had been, and everything.
And then yeah, she was packing bags, and left. She hasn't come back since.
But we do talk regularly nowadays, I have forgiven her since long ago, but it was tough when I didn't know the real deal.
And yeah, obviously me and my dad are really, really close now.
So all in all, it's a positive change in my life, without a doubt.

Most of my family doesn't know I'm bi, though I'm not shy about it. Alot of my dad's side of the family is against same sex relationships, but i more or less just tell them casually that i am bi, and if they don't like it, they can keep their opinions to themselves. Annoyingly though, since i was sexually abused, there are a few people who try to blame it on that. Now, i first came out in 8th grade to a group of friends, most of whom had already come out.

I started out telling one person I was really close with, then I gradually told more people who I thought were ready to know. And also people who personally asked me. Now nearly my entire primary ring of friends know. And most of my secondary too. I don't tell everybody because I'd like not to deal with ignorance. My family doesn't know, although my Mother might know. I'm not sure.

"Ma, I'm gay"
"So you like girls?"
"Well, I'm pansexual"
"Okay."
"Do you have anything else to say...?"
"Should I?"
"Shouldn't you be angry?"
"I really don't care. Good luck finding a girl who isn't a total b***h. Try to grab a rich one so I can get retired early. Remember: Girls have periods. Watch out. On one week for every month, we're monsters."
She really didn't care. She didn't take her eyes off her magazine even once. It was awesome.
My mom is super liberal, and she's one of three people in her work's gay-straight alliance.

I never cared for what my family thought of me, so I don't bother to tell them...but my big brother and sister mean the world to me and what they think of me...mean the world. Today I told them I was bisexual in a poem I wrote called, "Being Me." My sister was reading it and she looked up and at half way and her eyes were watery, then she said, "I want to cry." She finished it and told me she was proud of me and she loved me. Then I let my brother read it and he hugged me and told me he accepted me and will always love me no matter what. Then as he hugged me, he let me go and pointed his finger at me and said, "You better not have any boyfriends or girlfriends." rofl I love my big brother and sister.

im kinda annoyed because i swear iv'e already posted in this topic *flails arms*
anyway i haven't really told anybody i know irl that im bi. I don't think im really scared too though. its more that i don't really feel the need to. probably...
im pretty much willing to say i am though if someone asked (although it tends to be funny to reply with just "guess"). but that hasn't happened irl before so yeah...
anyway, how about one of u suggest a weird or funny way to do it ^^

It started in 8th grade. At this point I had been in love with my best friend for about 2 years, so I knew I liked girls. but one day I had my first girl crush on someone else besides my best friend. It was new and exiting and I really wanted to tell someone. so I turned to my other best friend and told her I was bi. She was very quiet about it but not judgemental at all, soon I told my friend jen, then Amanda, and so forth until about 15 people knew.
Then one day at the lunch table I told my best friend I loved her. Her face got red and she really didnt say anything about it, so I was freaking out
Then I made the big mistake. After lunch I told the girl I had a crush on about telling my best friend I loved her while we were passing notes in class and she said wait so your bi? and I said yeah. she was ok with it, until I made the mistake of writing her initials and saying I like this person too.
At the end of class she walked up to me with the note and said in the most disgusted voice, "Is it me, because if it is im NOT going to be your friend anymore." I quickly freaked out and said no, but the damage was already done. she began spreading rumors about me and by the end of the week my entire cycle gainged up on me at the door and started picking on me. They were saying things like, "why did you tell her you liked her if you knew she was straight?" and got on my case about it with her standing right there.
Before I realized what I was saying the words , "give me one good reason why I shouldn't kick your a**." Left my mouth (not like me at all) the next thing I knew a day or two went by and the two of us were fighting in the hallway. We got broken up and carried to the main office where I had the lovely pleasure of explaining to my mother why I got into a fight with this girl. I looked at her and said, "mom im bisexual" her exact words were, "me and your father had always thought you were but we were hoping we were wrong."
Granted I realized that I dont like men at all and that Im gay, but more or less my mom and ex step dad now know the truth. Shes actually really accepting about it now. she even checks if her dates are ok with it before comitting to them.
This all happened in 2005

Well last year I was in the car with my mom on the way back home and she asked me if I had a boyfriend or any romantic interest at all. I told her I did have someone I liked but it wasn't a guy. I was pretty much red as a tomato and refused to look at her. It was really embarrassing and I was really scared what she might do.
Surprisingly, she said that she would support me no matter what and she wanted me to be happy. After I told my mother, I felt better and I posted it on facebook that I was "In a relationship" with this girl.
It turns out she was straight and just bi-curious for a while...but I know I can rely on my mom for support when I'm feeling down. She was my first ever girlfriend and I still love her.

I'm going to tell them when I decide to live on my own (or with my
Boy friend.. )because I won't be able to stay here after... Maybe ill tell my sister sooner... because she's the only one I know who might accept me...

One weekend morning I told my Mother I was gay. She said "I can't talk about this right now." Two weeks later we talked and she's so supportive. Actually not too long ago I was gearing her up for the talk on pansexualism and she randomly spouted "You know, I see you as the type of person to love someone for who they are..." and I finished it with "... not what they have in their pants. Yeah... it's called pansexual." "Oh! It fits you!" (God that was the easiest). My Dad and brothers on this side are ridiculously accepting. When I told them it was followed by "Kay." and "Are you going to snipe that guy or not, I don't care who you're seeing, I'll still beat them up if they hurt you. Jeez shoot him, SHOOT HIM."
Coming out as Trans is basically the same story.
The short story with my BioFather and that side of the family is that after many yelling matches, horrible phone calls, and an absence of two years I got an email with him saying he's disowned me. Good thing I haven't changed my name legally yet and my Dad's family came to me to say that they would be honored if I changed my last name to theirs. I seriously broke down with that one. Like a baby.
There was all the drama of being a clinically depressed teen that I skipped over as this spans from middle school to senior year of high school.
