My plan was to start out with small hints, and progressively move on to bigger, and bigger ones so that when I finally came out and told my parents, they wouldn't be surprised, there wouldn't be any embarrassing questions, and I would be ready.
I never got the chance. Shortly after I left school last semester, somebody I'd known in school for a couple of weeks started cyberstalking me. He filled the inbox on my phone, sent long and creepy messages to me on Facebook with quotes in them from things I'd posted on other websites I never told him I used. Eventually, he did go away, but as a final attempt to have some control over me, he e-mailed my parents.
The e-mail was something like "Your daughter has been keeping a secret from you, blah blah lesbian, blah, here's a link to her Gaia post history."
I found and deleted the one sent to my mom before anyone else could read it, but he sent one to my dad too, and my dad has much better security than she does. They both read it, my mom came up, and we had a chat to the tune of "I don't really care if you're a lesbian. Have any ideas for dinner?"
Very anticlimactic. -.-

Clockwork Tribble They both read it, my mom came up, and we had a chat to the tune of "I don't really care if you're a lesbian. Have any ideas for dinner?"
Very anticlimactic. -.- That's fun way to end it. Consider it a happy ending. Only person I've told was my sister. It's strange though since we've hated each other with passion since we were about 10. One day, she comes back home late at night. Appearently she was stressed out. So we just talked, I let her vent, and somehow it led to her asking. Her reaction: 'Meh, its not that big of a deal' My reaction to her reaction: 'What the heck! The army will kick me out if they find out. You need to keep that a secret.'

Yeah, it's a lot better than I expected the reaction to be. xP
My brother and I hate each other too, and he still has no idea. The topic has come up, but I'm keeping it from him as long as possible because he'll make vulgar jokes, and he's twice my size so I can't smack him. >.>

WELL HA...
Like, to my mom and dad, I didn't exactly mean to come out to them.
My mom and me were arguing over the TV because she said she didn't think gays should marry, and I got upset and she screamed "WHAT, ARE YOU A LESBIAN OR SOMETHING?!" And I kinda got quiet and walked out of the room .. sweatdrop hehe.
Then to my dad, my mom told him when I was in the hospital... Cos yea.. =.=;;
FRIENDS. One friend (who I was madly in love with for 3 years) I had to make my other friend tell her (I was scared) and it turned out fine... xD
To others I either just told them (strangers or friends) or some other friends just told on the phone. xD But yea.. No one hated me so it's all good razz

I told one of my best friends over AIM, I was like, super serious best friend moment, I'm bi. Then I told two other best friends via text. And once I tweeted my friend telling her I was bi, and 2 other of my friends read it..
I don't really plan to fully come out the closet anytime soon. Really awkward considering many of my family members don't like gays.

Well, all of my friends just sorta knew. I wasn't out out but i wasn't spreading my homosexuality around(i didn't want to put gayness)
But then i had a pair of black converse, and i wrote gay pride on them in rainbow sharpie after that everybody just realized that i was a lesbian.

I stopped being nervous because very few of my friends even know about Gaia and none of my family really cares, so they don't look. Or at least they didn't. I'm not sure about now. stare
The harassment part was bad. There weren't any threats or anything, but he was sinking his claws into me and I knew that anything I put on the internet was going to be read by him. It shattered all the protective anonymity I had. There was just a feeling of being watched every time I went onto the computer.
He's gone now, though, so yay! And yus, we are. *high fives*

I know it, I think I know it from a hymn.
They said so - it doesn't need more explanation. To be honest, I'm not planning on coming out to my parents that I'm gay until I have my own place of living and stabil place of work. I'm actually almost 17 and still in school so actually I'm 100% set on not telling them. You ask why? I'm afraid of their reactions. I really don't know what they think about homosexuality, so that's the reason behind it. And even if I'd know, I'd keep that 'secret' to myself for a long time. I'm not in relationship so I don't mind it now, but it'll get "tougher" for me when I'll be like 20+ and my parents will keep asking me if I have a girlfriend... I think this will hurt them when I'll tell them, so I'd rather wait...
[ It's one of my first posts in here, huh, feels weird. :> ] A box to open up with light and sound,
making you cold, very cold...

The first person I ever came out to was my best friend. We used to both be on the Cartoon-World forums (he's not on there anymore) and in the "gay, straight or bi?" section he put a post saying that he was bi. I posted after him and the next time we saw each other he was like "Wow! You're bi too? Finally, I have someone to relate to!" Since then he's discovered that he is actually gay and we openly support each other.
I came out to my mom about 2 months ago in a letter. So my best friend's parents found out he was gay and they did not take it well, which caused our band to break up for a little over a month. Needless to say, I was not a happy person. My mom picked up on this and started pestering me constantly one day, "What's wrong? I know something's wrong. Just tell me!" I figured I'd write her a letter explaining everything and included the fact that if his parents found out I was bisexual they'd never let me see him again. I laid it on her pillow before I went to bed that night and in the morning we talked about it. I was surprised at her reaction. I had heard her make some pretty homophobic remarks before and she is very religious so I thought she'd get mad or keep saying that it's just a phase but instead she hugged me, started to cry and said "I may not condone what you do in your life but I'll always love you." I think we've become a little closer since then.
