Homie The Clown I've known for a while that I was gay. I was just denying it for a long time. About two months ago I finally began to accept it. I really want to come out and begin to tell people, but I'm nervous about it. My school isn't exactly what you'd call gay friendly and my parents are homophobes. So, I was just wondering, how did YOU come out and tell everyone? Maybe your stories can help me. I felt the Same way, but one day i met the girl at school who was Bi, that i was bi, then i started to tell other girls then it got to guys and i didnt get made fun of there and now most;y everyone at school knows i'm Bi but dont ever say anything, one time this guy know i was bi, and told this boy behind me "Your gay" I looked up think ing he was talking to me and he goes "Not you, him, Your gay!" lmao, so yeah, and my parents (aka, mom) doesnt know and never will 3nodding

I've only told four of my friends. I'm keeping it that way too. Two of them I told because they were annoying me by playing 'guess why Alex has a headache'(long story) The other two are my best friends so I would've felt very guilty for not telling them. They all took it rather well, but I don't want to risk any bad reactions.

The only person who knows about me being bi is my sister. I know that she will keep it a secret. It was scary at first to tell her, but once I did, I was able to get a mature response. It is difficult, but you will never know the reaction you get from others if you do not open your mouth and talk about it. Not being mean, it just gets frustrating when you don't tell. I know, that was a secret I kept for close to 7 years.

One of my friends was going out with some guy and she was trying to get me to go out with his friend...
I just couldn't take going out with another guy just to make her happy...
So I told her...
Surprisingly she took it really well...
And I'm telling my other friends one by one until I can tell everyone...
But then around where I am people are pretty accepting... I only really know one homophobe... and she is only allegedly one... I wouldn't ask her XD

I just came out like 3 dayes ago xd .....Well the way I did it was I stayed up all night talking to my friends on gaia about comeing out...... then my grandma got up and we sat and talking for like 2 hours and then I told her and OMG I was so shocked she said she and my aunt knew that i was gay since I was like 12 years old and Im 19 now. And she was so loveing and supportive about it. And after I told her I was able to tell every body! Ever since I told I am gay I feel as tho a huge load has been lifted off my back. I feel so free! wink

My gay best mate asked if i was bi one day when we were walking along the canal. and i said no...not sure if i should tell him. Then the next day i went up to him and was like: about what you asked me yesterday, i lied, i am, i just didn't know what to say.
I don't go around telling people that i'm bi, but if they ask i tell them the truth

Haven't yet. I'm not quite sure who/when/how I want to do it (too first). Plus, I'd like to confirm it first, it probably won't be anything exciting. My parents and I and my friends are all pro gay.

I have one of those super funny jaw dropping pee your pants kind of coming out stories. Everyone I tell laughs. Well I was 14 when I came out to my parents. (my friends knew far before that). I was sitting playing cards with my boyfriend, mom, and dad. We were talking about some weird topic (I can't really remember). Then all of a sudden I just said... "Guess what Mom I'm bi". She didn't say anything for a minute, then she turns and looks at me, and very seriously says "Anna, I will not believe that you are truly bisexual until you have licked some woman's p***y". That within itself is a bit interesting of a reaction. Well we were having this discussion about gay marriage a year or so later and my mom was telling me that she's really like to know when I get out of this "gay" phase. I yelled at her "Well guess what mom? I HAVE licked a womans p***y". I swear every hair of her body cringed. She covered her ears and yelled back"TMI TMI!!!!" Lol... so there ya go.... me and my crazy mom

This is all so sad to see all you wonderful people hiding these feelings in your heart... it hurts me...
My story is very similar. Although, my parents would not dissown me, they just wouldn`t let me out of the house until I came to my *senses*. I also don`t want to tell any of my family members because I know my siblings would look at me differently for the rest of my life. And it would also hurt my mother terribly. I feel bad because I put so much stress on her heart already cuz of all the bad things I`ve done... But she never realized that I only did it because I wanted love and attention. My sister and brother always got all of it. I`m kinda the girl u never noticed, only very pretty. I am not smart and very talented, I just sit there and look pretty. I recently almost slit my wrists recently because of the pain inside. The scars on my wrists are healing tho, and I am feeling somewhat better. But inside, all I ever want to do is cry.

For me, it was unusual. All my friends were either gay, or fine with gay people. I don't know why, but I was still afraid to tell them. It was like this fear of something would change, like they'd think about me differently.
It was really important for me that my mom knew. So one night, she was up late watching TV alone, and I just..came downstairs and told her. I was like "I'm gay." and she was like "....so?" it was pretty awkward. like, really, what do you say to that? Then I told two of my friends. I wasn't keen on telling everyone though. My mom says she told my brother. haven't told my dad.
after a while of just these like, 4 people knowing, I decided I didn't want to have to tell people. It doesn't really matter...right? so I've just. stopped 'keeping it a secret.'

Well, I was pretty confused about my sexuality, but through the use of free internet porn, I've discovered that I am, in fact bisexual. Now, since I only just confirmed this last night xd , I haven't had a chance to tell anyone. I'm going to tell my best female friend as soon as I hear from her(she's on vacation) and I'm giong to tell my best male friend tonight when we go to the movies. I'll probably tell my boyfriend when I see him next, as I'd much rather tell him something that important when I can see him.
As for my family, I have no intentions of telling them yet. My mom says she's ok with gays/lesbians/bisexuals because she had a gay uncle, but I'm not entirely sure how she'd take it if I told her I was bi. My grandmother for sure can never know, my dad would probably kick me out if he knew, but only after disowning me. And my siblings I just don't really care what they think. I don't really have a good relationship with any of them, except the younger of my 2 sisters, and I only say that because she doesn't spend her time trying to irritate/fight with me, because she's incredibly handicapped, and she really wouldn't give a ******** anyway. My oldest sister I haven't seen for about 5 years, and I have only talked to her once during that time, and only then it was a short talk. My oldest brother is the biggest stuck-in-the-closet-homophobic-homosexual I've ever seen, so he'd just hate me more than he already does, which is fine by me becasue the a*****e slammed my head into a heater, cement floor, and the bottom of a sofa, which caused a chair to fall on me. And all of this was when I already had a concussion from an accident earlier that week involving and elbow and a water fountain. But yeah, just my friends and maybe my mom for now. I know for sure my mom wouldn't tell my dad just to spite him, so maybe I will.

My best friend since 5th grade has been bi, as well as I mostly grew up hanging out in her house with her mothers which are both lesbians. I first came out when I talked to her about it, feeling like she was the best person to talk to about sexual orientation. However, the first batch of friends I ever told was in my first year of high school when I was having a serious talk with one of my friends named Tohaku.
For family, well, I've only told my mother and she's been in denial ever since. I mean, sometimes she'll joke about it to somewhat let me know that she understands slightly, but it's just something she's not proud of and would rather not have to say around anyone if she could help it.
