I have posted my uncertainty of my sexuality. I am pretty certain now however that I am bisexual. The problem remains thus:
I am known in my circle of friends as being the boy-crazy (no, I have never let on about my feelings the other way) tomboy. Confused yet? Well sometimes I make remarks about how I "like it" when we're getting changed in the locker rooms. Now I don't really because they are like sisters to me but I say that sort of stuff sometimes about celebrities or girls I don't know so well. For example, I start the "if you were gay who would you be gay with?" game. This is my way of trying to let them know without letting them know. I would normally tell them straight-out but one of them is very religious and I don't want to mess with it. I was wondering if you all had any suggestions on my plan to continue letting them know without letting them know. I don't want to make it some big "coming out" thing because that's unneccessary. Still...

Im not sure if I could help you really.. When I figured that I was at least Bi, I came out to one of my friends the night I actually realized it. My other friend was a little harder to come out to (since I had a crush on her) but I came out to her by just telling her. Im not very good at subtle hints. lol..

Yeah, I've told three of--no, sorry, two of my friends. One of whom is into bondage so she is obviously open-minded (it was a long night of opening up, needless to say smile ) and the other I have known since our baby-showers. There are two I would like to tell and one of them would probably be totally cool with it but there is that one...she is the kind of Christian--what is it...Penacostle? Something like that and she is very, very religious.

Just because someone maybe relgious doesn't mean their against being open minded on this subject.
If shes really your friend, she won't care and she'll still like you for who you are and what your like. Not just because of your sexuality.

You're very right about the "if she's really my friend" thing. Yet it does matter how religious one is because I know some religions look down very strongly on HBT-sexuality. I am worried to make the relationship...awkward.

Really all you can do is tell her and hope for the best, see what happens.

Yes, I suppose you all are right. The Gorillaz are a good group, by the way *points to Shmoo-Chan's sig*. smile

I'd like mention something like if there's a girl you and your friends know who's really hot and/or beautiful, is nice, but gets on your nerves, randomly mention like, "I'd totally date her if she didnt ______" kind of lets people officially know without saying like, ok, announcement, this is really hard but I'm going to come out and say it, ... dun dun dun... pause.... I'm bi. too dramatic.

Smook's idea is pretty good 3nodding . Just keep saying what girls you'd date n such, n saying how pretty girls are. It'll certainly get the idea across without actually saying it. Pretending to flirt with the like in the locker room helps too. Ya kno, joking about girls you'd date. A friend of mine is bi and she used to say "__is so cool, I'd totally date her". I thought she just admired her, but with all the other combined hints..well, it made sense she was bi I guess xd .
Also, don't worry so much about your friend's reactions. If they'reyour friends then they're your friends and that won't change. You might not want to tell the religious one first sweatdrop , but I'd still try to bring up the topic of gayness to her and see how she reacts. If she says she has no problem with gay peoplez you should be in the clear ninja 3nodding .
