A: I came out when I was a Junior in High School- HOWEVER, since I was only 15 as a Junior in High School everyone thought I was just confused about myself or going through a phase. Now 18 and done with part of college, working and earning a living to help support my mom- people take me seriously about it.
B: My mother accepts me, she get's uncomfortable if I talk about seeing a cute girl or when I had a boyfriend who was transgender (girl to guy)- but I understand that and try not to bring it up too often. My Grandmother surprisingly accepted me and is comfortable talking about- it surprised me because she's from the Military and kind of a hard a**, I figured her for the type to not be a homophobe but not want a member of her family to be gay either. All my friend accept me, and those who didn't and were against me I just got rid of- one of my friends even stuck by me when there was a rumor that her (straight) and I were having sex in the back of my car (which I didn't own at the time, haha); hell, my straight friends even come to parades and protests with me, sometimes they even dress up.
My distant family, both the family I have in the Middle East and the family I have in Japan are mixed with accepting and being against me, all of my Middle Eastern family except for a cousin are against me for it, some to where they've gone preaching on how I should burn in hell. My Japanese family accept for the most part, some of them even try to find my dates, haha. My distant family doesn't really matter to me as much as my close family though, distant family I rarely have to deal with or see.

A: I haven't come out yet, to family, but I have left an awful lot of hints. Most of my firends know and they had already guessed it.
B: I really doubt anyone but my dad will be unaccepting. Though most of my friends know and support me.
C: I am thinking of waiting to tell my parents after I go off to collage, but that's three years away and I might be able to hide it any more.

I came out a few years ago and most of my friends know. A few don't but that's only because they've never asked. I haven't come out to my family but that's because I don't know how they'd take it. I really don't want to hear the whole "it's only a phase thing". However, I am very proud. I'm also very greatful for having friends that are very accepting. The only people I'm worried about being accepting are the ones who don't know yet. That's kind of why I don't go yelling about it around them. But, if they straight up asked me, I would let them know that I am in fact bisexual. I just love my friends, and I don't want to lose them over something like my sexual preference. In most cases, if someone didn't like me for that reason I would just stop hanging with them, but these people are different. Most of my friends are super Christian, like everyone in this town, so I completely understand why they feel certain ways about things. It's not their fault, they were just raised that way, and I know that I can't help that. So, I accept my friend's views, just like I want them to accept mine.

i came out to my incredibly homophobic mother 4-5 years ago. she was fine with it. but i still have to watch how much i put on her. like if we're talking about it. limit the conversation to like 2-3 questions per day. and not talk every day. she doesn't ask me about it on her own though, and doesn't really ask about anything else either so that's fine.
i'm having a hard time coming out to my friends. i posted on my facebook that i'm looking for guys and girls, but that's the most i could do. i mean, how do you do it? i have a best friend. but we've kinda grown a little bit apart. she's the first person i would tell, but ...what if that means no more sleepovers? no more hugs? no more sex jokes? the other day she invited me to sit on her lap, and i said no. because i didn't think it was appropriate to do that to her. i mean, she doesn't know i'm bi, so maybe things will change when she does....i guess i have to at some point...if i ever get a girlfriend....but then. i don't know. advice?
