How did it go for you? How did your family take it? How did the school take it? Pointers to give to the people that haven't come out? (like me rofl I've come out to a few people but not to the general public) I'm just looking for some advice and tips.

Well...I came out to my family and friends...it was hard...but it was the right thing to do...

I'm bi...when I told my mom she argued with me telling me I was lying...but becuz I have a bi cuz my mom went to her for advice...it went well....my mom don't like that I'm bi...but she accepts it now...

as for my friends...I lost one of them for a few weeks becuz she thought it meant I would want her or something...and of course we all know thats not the case MOST OF THE TIME... but finally when she talked to me about it I simply told her that I wouldn't ever try to turn her becuz I respect who she is...and she slowly started hanging out with me again....after she was used to it she even started crackin bi jokes on me...not offensive ones ...but the ones you can laugh about with your friends....

The general public though...is RUDE... I'm not sure if I'm ready for that...now if I had a girlfriend that would be different...I wouldn't care I'd be as open as I wanted to be at any given moment...but I'm not so I think why should I have to tell the world when I'm single anyways...it isn't like I'm offending anyone being lonely...

Well...thats my story....hope it is helpful.... biggrin

I did to everyone other than my family, because my mother is religous, a lot.

I've told my parents.

My Mother Claims I'm just trying to be part of the crowd. [Because we all know I love getting the s**t beat out of me :Roll: ]

My Father Ignores it, And Everytime I mention it, he switches subjects and gives me a dirty glare..


All of my Friends know. And their totally okay with it. 3nodding
I never thought they wouldn't be, actually.
Except one friend who told me all Bisexuals and Homosexuals deserve to be drug out to the street and shot.

But after a nice meeting with the floor and my Angry-side, He quickly changed his tune. [ mrgreen ]

my coming out was fine, my family doesn't know. as for school, well, guys hit on me alot, girls too. my advice, don't start dating too quickly wait until you are absolutely sure of it.

I've only told my close friends, brother, and my mom that I'm bi.

My close friends are fine with it. My brother is gay so he's accepting. MY mom just looked at me and said okay. The next day when she picked me up for school she just started asking questions like why did this happen to me and was it something she and/or dad did or was it her fault. I cleared up everything and it's all good. I don't really talk about it with anyone though and I feel that it's bottling up that I'm not open with it. It bothers me. I want to come completely out but I don't know what to do.

Ive told my close freinds (who are mostly bi or gay) and 2 cousins but can't get up the guts to tell my mom. (Shes deeply religious.)
