Faint Residing
Female. Out-ish. I mean, most of my friends know, and most people at school. I don't plan on telling my parents until I have my own house out of state, lol. It's not that bad, in my own opinion, telling your friends. I mean, I didn't have any problems at all with that. Because most all of them are bisexual, transexual, lesbians...that sort of thing. So it was more like a celebration than a bunch of questions and awkward silences. I guess I was blessed with that. But my parents, no. I mean, it would just be awkward for me wondering what they're thinking all the time. Like, when I go over to a friend's house or something. Would they think we're having intercource or going out? I just don't want to deal with that awkward feeling of them thinking those things about me, and thinking that way about me. So I'd wrather wait until I've matured and they've matured in the like.


Heh.... I had the same situation my friends too. I remember one of my straight friends being dissapointed because they lost another one. IT was a joke of course. Yeah, i get the funny looks from my parents but if they know that your friends are gblt and such then they probably wont have too much of a problem with it. But its not like you have to tell them anywhere in the near future if you dont feel comfortable with it. I think that waiting untill you have matured a bit is a good idea but i think that if you wait too long that they will feel like youve been hiding somthing like a relationship from them and they may not trust you as much. THere are a lot of factors to consider.

I would have to say I am out a little bit. Only to a few people. My 3 best friends. I told them I was bi, on the verge of lesbian and they don't treat me any diffrent than they did before. I guess I am luck because of that. Though two of them had some questions.

But, my family, is another story. I'm sure they would still love me. But, they would act strange around me. My brother, I am not sure when, will definatly be the first person in my family that I will come out to. (I think he has a feeling. He moved his porn magazines. But I found them. whee ) But he is the only person I would be ready to come out too, anytime soon.

Oh. And today we were playing a video game, and I was commenting on how pretty the characters were. Even though they were pixel. And I said, not thinking of course, "I LIKE GIRLS!" sweatdrop Though, that could go so many ways.

It is funny how easy it is to slip up like that, I have said things like he is cute, or my boy friend something, in front of people who I am not out to, and then you have to try and explain yourself. *Laughs*

Lol....i brought to my mom as a sexual discovery issue, and then gradually acted more serious. That did leave her thinking its just a phase, but i thought it was a good plan.
Lol....thats great with your brother. Just that is can go so many ways and you can manipulate it as you want.

SO i had told people earlier that i was kinda out since my parents and some friends knew, but know i am almost completely, i think. But it annoys me somewhat. My friend, who i had trusted, decided to stand up in the middle of a party, when they were discussing her bi-ness, and tell me . I was so pissed off. What was her right? People took it better than i thought they would though. But still, how does she get off doing that? arg. My other friend, clueless darlin as she is, was the only one who did not understand when my friend said that earlier, and so i turned to her and said, "mandie, not only am i not straight, i'm probably the gayest bi person here." Her face was probably the only amusement of the day. *sigh*

I'm not out yet, but I want to be. I'm worried about how my parents will react. I'm fairly certain my father will be OK with it, but my mother will most likely laugh at me and then get angry gonk so I'm trying to wait until everyone ELSE will take me seriously. One cannot dismiss a 17-year-old as "only following a trend" (I'm bi) as easily as one can a 15-year-old. And when I get back to my school (I'm an evacuee from New Orleans) I'll come out to my friends, as soon as I have some. cry .

I'm seventeen, female, and out.

It's clearly displayed on my right hip.. I have a keychain that says "My parents said I could be anything, so I became a lesbian." *I'll scan and post it sometime*. So, everyone knows, basically. It's posted everywhere, and by the way I act, and not to mention, I say it on a constant basis.


My parents are uncomfortable with it, and it makes me nervous talking to them about it. My grandparents know, as does my biological mother.. and none of them really care -- The only ones that do, are my parents. Most of my friends don't care, due to the fact that they are bisexual. Some leaning towards "the all-girls team". I even know a few bisexual/gay guys. So, it's pretty open where I come from. Minus my parents.

What about those of us who are outish? lol. Most people know, but there are a few that I wont tell, or some that are just clueless.

I'm out to most of my friends. I just moved to a small town in Tennessee... and people here arn't as open about sexuallity as they were where i used to live. I'm not out to my parents yet, and don't know that i ever will be, because i'm someone i plan to spend the rest of my life with and he's male. I'd love to be out to everyone, but it takes time.... timing, to me, is really important in comming out.

My boyfreind has asked my what so important about being out. For me, it gives me a relieving feeling to know that someone accepts me far all that i am. I want to tell people I condsider friends because my sexuallity, even though i'm with someone straight, is a big part of me and i want to be able to have that part of me accepted. If i'm freinds with someone who's homophobic, i kind of feel like we;re not really freinds, because they don't know me, and if they did really knoe me, they wouldn't like all of me, or they'd be judging me, and that doesn't feel like a really freindship.

Hahah. A couple of days ago my boyfriend, a friend of his (he's my friend too i guess) and i were walking around the mall....and out of nowhere, my bf says, "I like girls." and his friend said me too, and so did I. And even though we all said it jokingly, i felt kinda good to say it out loud for someone to hear and judge me for saying.... I mean i know i can say it to my boyfreind anytime, but it's differant.

I'm still unsure as to whether my bisexual tendencies are the real thing or just sexual frustration/curiosity, so I'd rather not out myself-if I do at this point and it turns out I'm not bi, then I'll just look like a drama-queen starving for attention.

I'm female, lesbian and fully out.

I was completely brain dead when I told my mom, so that was easier, but I was terrified of telling my dad. He was okay with it, though. I was nearly making an escape route if things got out of hand.

He and my stepmom worry I might be confused XD. It should be insulting or something, but it makes me laugh. I'm totally in love with my girlfriend, by now, you'd think I knew for sure. rofl
