I sat down wit my parents and just got it out of my mouth, then we had a conversation about it, they were fine with it. Told my brother and sister a year later, same way, same result.
Told my friends over facebook before I came out to my family. I'm lucky I guess, I have never experienced a lot of hatred towards my sexuality.

I'm out to two people. It's funny really, because I wasn't sure it was true or not at the time, but it mostly is now. I was on the bus with two of my friends, and one of my friends, Aaron, kept pestering me about going out with him despite his HUGE cheating streak. It was getting so annoying, so when he asked (for the hundredth time) why I wouldn't go out with him, I told him I wasn't into guys. The next day I basically confirmed it to him, and later to the other friend, Aly, although I do believe I told her I was in fact a lesbian. It's kind of true. I mean, guy parts sound nasty, sex just sounds nasty. And a woman is so beautiful and... yeah. God, I was so afraid Aly wouldn't accept me because she didn't sit next to me on the bus the following day. I would've died. But things are back to normal with us, and with Aaron he's stopped asking me out, but occasionally he asks if he can change my mind rolleyes As for my parents, I haven't told them and won't tell them until... I don't know. I mean, I know they're going to be super supportive (my mom even brought me to a pride rally a few years back) but I'm just not that comfortable with them. It's hard to talk about serious things.

The first time I tired to come out to my mum she stopped speaking to me. xD Now that I might be in a relationship, I'm considering being out at school with friends and stuff, but then using a long-distance male friend as a beard to avoid parental suspicion.

I came out to my aunt at a restaurant so that if she wanted to kill me there would be witnesses. She took it okay, she cried of course, she thought I was going to tell her I was a lesbian but I told her I was bisexual so she was like, "Ok I kind of saw this coming." lol.
I came out to my mom through email (she lives far away). She took it ok. While I was talking to one of my brothers on the phone he figured it out and was ok with it but my other brothers don't know. Only one of my sisters know, and she knows because I also told her over the phone.
I haven't told my dad yet because I'm afraid he'll disown me or kill me or both (in any order). Only a few of my friends know, they don't really care or feel uncomfortable with it (as long as I don't kiss any girls in front of some of them lol).
So, I'm kind of out but kind of not you know? sweatdrop

I I met a guy. He became my boyfriend. Some people saw that we were boyfriends and it became obvious to them, but I never went out of my way to actually tell anybody directly. I'm really not a fan of that "Mom, Dad... I'm gay" scenario. It is possible they don't even know yet, can't be sure. But if they do or they don't, it really doesn't matter that much. If I decide to get married to a guy and they still don't know then I guess I will tell them.

Well, I came out by force. The first time was when my mom thought I was bi. It was close to midnight and I was just heading to bed when my mom burst into my room and started screaming at me that I was a pervert. I then went to sleep thinking it was a dream until a few days afterward when my mom and step dad interrogated me on my bisexuality (even though by this time I had never had a girlfriend and I had realized that I was gay already). I remember my step dad saying "who told you to be like this? They can go to jail for this!" while my mom told me that I knew it was wrong and that's why I didn't tell her, that's why I lied to her. She then dragged me into the Catholic church where the priest then ranted about the evils of homosexuality and how they want to rape and convert your children to the way of the devil... only to then pray that hate will be abolished and for people to buy crab cakes outside (after quoting Leviticus). When I got home my mom forced me to read the "anti-gay" scriptures of the bible while my step dad disconnected my computer from the internet then brought my sister to a friend's house. I was then told that I was not allowed to go onto the internet because that's what was making me "act like this". I wasn't allowed to go any where near my sister for over 6 months either. At one point I did research on Harry Hay and I accidentally left his biography,]Radically Gay, on the table upstairs and my step dad chucked it at my head and told me that he doesn't want any perverted things in his house. That night I thought I running away.
The second time I came out was when my dad found out I was gay after searching my car... and he found my year book hidden in a pocket behind my seat. Inside he read a message from a friend saying "you're my favorite lesbian!". Let's just say that even though he knew I was bi at this point... he flipped. Thankfully... things are better now.

First I told my sister. She is my everything. Her reaction was priceless. She literally got excited about it.
After a few days I told my mom. Just came right out of the closet I did. She still loves and supports me.
From her (she can't keep a secret for any longer than 5 minutes) my step-dad found out and he's completely supportive. The rest of my family slowly found out and would ask me for a confirmation. I willingly gave it too. smile
The only person that had a problem with it was my father. he does not accept it.. he's rather a huge hypocrite. but that's a story for another time. all that needs to be said about him is that he and I no longer speak to one another. He tries to talk to me, but the stuff he has done to me and the family is just unforgivable.
ANYWAYS, I'm out and proud to everyone. and I am so lucky and thankful that I barely have to deal with any bashing/hate/whatever else.
For anyone that does have to deal with it.. know that I am here to help you.

First, I told my closest friends. Then I told my mom. Angry, she outed me to the rest of my family and the rest of my friends found out when I arranged to move in with a friend of mine. xD
It was actually really easy. I wasn't that nervous and when people found out on their own and confronted me, I didn't feel afraid. I guess I was lucky in that respect.

I messed up coming out. sad When I was 12 I guess I wasn't ready to come out, I asked my mom "What would you do if I liked girls, and only girls." and she said "Well, I wouldn't care but I don't think you do." So, after she said to my sister "Skylar wants to tell you something" I went in her room and said "Mom, I don't know if I feel the same." And she said "Ok, but do you mind if I ever ask you about it?" I said "no." Then about 2 days later I said "Mom, I still like girls but, I also still like boys." And she yelled and said "IS THIS BECAUSE YOUR ON THE COMPUTER?!?!" And then for about a year she thought I was bi. Then I told her straight, [ big mistake and I regret it soo much. ] and she seemed relieved. So now my mom thinks I am 100% straight. I said "I'm too young to know." When really I'm not. I think when I'm 14 I will tell my sister. But, I really messed up. And, I wish I could re do it cause now my mom will never believe me. crying Man, I started crying.

First person I told was my sister, which was really hard. When I told her I was bisexual, she was like "Oh, then why didn't you tell me? I'm here to support you" So that went well. Second person was my best friend since kindergarten. She was the hardest, since she did not like gay/bi people. So I told her in 8th grade, and she ignored me for about 3 weeks. But then slowly, she started accepting me for who I am, and stuff. I lost one friend because she hated gay people, which is weird because her sister is a lesbian. Every time we pass by the street she always glares at me, which I hate. :/. I also told my parents shortly after her. My dad was okay, since he told me to be myself. My mom took it hard because I'm the first out of the family to become a bisexual. But she accepted me later on. So yeah, that's my story. o-o

I didn't really come out, my mom found out. I've kinda known since I was young but not to this extent. Near the end of my freshman year of highschool, I met this girl, she was so strange and beautiful.. authentic would be a good word for her. And she was a lesbian. She befriended my best friend before I ever really got to know her, and my best friend was a bit uncomfortable with that vixen being the way she was, but she accepted it. We all hung out after about a week of talking to her, and she thought I was straight, but I didn't want to tell her otherwise when I was confused about my feelings myself. In person, she was brutal and rugged.. in a good sort of way. It made her powerful. One night, she spent the night and my cousin decided he wanted to have a bonfire, and the vixen's sister brought the beverages. I wasn't all that drunk, but she kissed me on the trampoline before we went to sleep, I was terribly nervous. After that, I was in love with her for the longest time. Also after that, my mother decided to read my messages on myspace(vixen telling me she loves me, etc.).. reading about me smoking pot for the first time. I didnt know she had read anything else until she asked me later that night "How long have you liked girls?" and I said "what?" that was the only thing I could say. The only pitiful word that could leave my mouth was "what".... Since then we haven't mentioned it at all, and thats the way I like it. 3nodding

I told my best friend, my soul brother, first. I almost passed out as his reaction mattered to me. He accepted me although he was shocked and questioned me about it. I went onto to tell my other friends until all of my friends knew. All of them accepted me as we had a gay friend already. I then went on to tell my sister who got giddy about it. She loves and accepts me still although she still tortures me. I have yet to tell my mom and am unsure when I will.
