well, when i came out,it was in school during homeroom last year (junior year). along with a good male friend of mine, i stood beside him and just said "i'm gay." all we both got, and to this day we're fine with it, was a quiet gasp and seeing people return to their conversations...the upside is that they've all still kept in touch with him and i,and at the end of this school year we may be moving in together whee whee whee

It sounds like some of you all have had a rough time of it. I only have come out to my friends, and they didn't take it so well. The conversation went like this:
Me: Hey guys? Them: Yeah? Me: Would it freak you out if I said I was bi? Them: No. Me: Okay. I'm bi. Friend One: Don't start checking me out! Me: You're not my type. Friend Two: You said you were bi. That means you like everybody. You're such a pervet. I'm leaving. Friend One: Me too.
Yeah... so, they have been rather making fun of me for it ever since. Because of that, I haven't told anyone else.

I haven't actually came out to anyone but my best friend...and a lot of people online that I'll prolly never meet. Heh. But, my best friend was so great about it, she told me that she was laid back about that kind of thing, and she would always be there for me and support me no matter what. ^-^ Now that's a real friend for ya.
But...I just like...can't tell anyone else. I have one other person that I'm pondering telling, but I'm afraid he'd tell my parents. So, I'm not sure. Heh. My parents have no clue...and they gay bash whenever I bring something up. o_O Like, I was talking about one of my gay friends and they were all - being gay is so wrong...blahblahblah. *sigh* I may tell my brother soon...he told me once before that he didn't think it mattered if you were gay or not, as long as you didn't push it in peoples faces. Heh...oh well I suppose. My parents may just never know. I'm scared of them. ._.;

Nu-uh. Me no telley. Baaaaad.
But seriously. I haven't come out to anyone, and I'm so freaked out to do so. It's more difficult when I don't exactly know what I am. Oh well.

Because of that, I haven't told anyone else. How sad... But they weren't that good friends after all...a real friend wouldn't do such a thing...

The first one to know that I'm gay was my older sister. I was quite depressed at the moment and she asked my if I liked guys...
After that I have come out to some friends, at first the didn't beleve me but after a while it kinda got up to them.... I think they took i really well...

so far i've only really told a few close friends, mostly girls. I told one guy friend and i'm not sure if he thinks i'm kidding or not because I always joke around and like hug him randomly. He's not really my type but it's a lot of fun teasing him xd
(edit: forgot to say that i'm bi sweatdrop )

Not really. I think everyboby kind of assumes, or at least has a HINT I'm bi, just from the way I act. But most of my family doesn't... I don't share much of anything with them though. I think most of my friends do, even the ones I haven't mentioned it too. For the record, I'm bi.

I yelled it at my mother one day when we were arguing over me not having a boyfriend.
I just screamed "IM A LESBIAN" she was all thrown off by that comment.
I got the I'll love you no matter what, but why can't you just be straight.
You're so pretty you could get a boyfriend, and kids..
Now she pretty much just denies it and yells at me about being a lesbian when she's drunk. She resents me for not being her little princess.

I have come out to a few close friends but when i tried to tell my mom..heres what she said
Me: mom what would you say if i told you i was bi? Her:I wouldn't have a problem with it but i think you should get to know yourself first. Me: well mom i'm Bi....... Her:again i want you to know....... Me:I know mom but i really feel that i have gotten to know myself and i think it's right that i tell you that i am.
She just looked at me and I left the room went into my room and closed the door and started to cry, she still doesen't believe me. crying I'm almost 15 and i've known since 7th grade. my older sister is also bi and she's 16

Well, Im still in the process of 'coming out' but heres my progress
About 2 years ago I told Marie and Jamie Me: Guys I think Im bi Marie and Marie: ...... thats cool I guess (about a week later Jamie decided she was bi, Marie, who I always thought was bi, still says shes straight)
Last year I told Manuel (who is gay) and Ross Me: Im slightly bisexual Ross: Only Slightly?? *laughs* Manuel: OMG really?! Thats soooo cool! After that I told a few other friend but I was scared to tell my best friend Jenny because we always joked about being lesbians, and I didnt want her to think I had been hitting on her all that time (shes totally not my type) but she found out on her own (she found me talking about it on Gaia) Jenny: Your bi?!?! me: yup Jenny: How long have you been bi? me: always Jenny: Why didnt you ever tell me? Me: you never asked Jenny: you told me you weren a lesbian!!!! Me: Im not, theres a difference. Jenny: I suppose, I think Im bi too xp
