I wanna hear about how you came out, when, how old you were, or any friends that just made it worth coming out.
I came out this year after prom a week after my 18th. I'm happy to say I was with a guy the whole night during prom around a whole bunch of other people. anyone who didn't see me with him got to see pictures of us.
Yeah so I'm the guy that everyone swears is gonna grow up to be rich, and have a super hot wife. So there's this guy in my science class, and this kid pretends to like malest him or soemthing I guess every day. Everyday this guy yells at the kid, "F-ing f*****t," or "I can't stand gay people" even "f*****t I should kick your a**" Well I'm proud to say the guy who said all that is one of the first guys I came out to. His response was, "No it's cool man, I mean after all I know you don't like white guys." "But I never said I don't..." "No dude you don't like white guys" Then there was the classic event when he was joking about the kid again, "I bet he's got all kinds of pictures of naked guys, and guy on guy in his phone." I was just staring at him and smiling trying not to laugh. He looks at me, "Oh @#$% dude I'm never gonna remember that. I don't mean anything against you by it."

I'm about half out. I have come out to most of my friends and they are all cool with it and I have come out to my sister. Other than that none of my family knows. I'm still trying to figure out how to tell them. They suspect it but they are not sure yet.

Shanna66 well if people ask then i tell them so i dont know if that counts as comming out my sister is the only one in my family that knows about me being bi. i dont see any point in telling everyone else since im engaged to a man and wont be ating anymore women anytime soon I'm in much of the same situation, my partner is male so my family don't need to know. All my friends know I'm bi and if people ask I tell. But otherwise my sexuality is only a small part of who I am.

I'm kind of strange. I'm usually pretty laid back, but when it comes to being out, I'm very aggressive. I came out to everyone as soon as I figured it out myself. Everyone at school and my whole family know that I'm trans, bi, and poly. Most of them don't care much, which is a relief. My attitude was, before I found out that most people were okay with it, "I don't care who knows. Let anyone who has a problem with it come forward so I can kick their a**!" Fortunately, no a** kicking has been performed as of yet, and I first came out almost a year ago. One person, a few weeks ago, came up to me and said "******** tranny." I said "Yeah. I am a ******** tranny." He blushed and ran off. I chuckled. If anything, most people respect my honesty and lack of fear. I've had multiple people say they look up to me and I inspire them by being so brave and open about who I am. Even my friend, who is a strict and devout Christian, is very close to me. He accepts and tolerates my differences, saying we are all children of God no matter how varied we may be. My family all knows too, and they are cool with it. I'm not the only one. I have one gay cousin, two lesbian cousins, and my great aunt by marriage is an MtF. I'm nothing new.

Hey. :] If you don't know me, I'm Anne. 16, high school junior, bisexual. smile My story's pretty long and complicated, but I'll try to make it as short and sweet as possible.
I first started questioning my sexuality when I was in 7th grade when I noticed that I was looking at some guys and girls in the same type of way. I ignored it to the best of my ability because I was raised in a very Christian family.
When I was in my freshman year of high school, I met a girl named Kara (we were just friends). After becoming good friends, she told me she was bisexual. We started e-mailing and I told her that I was confused. After talking to her as well as seeking advice online, I started realizing the truth: that there was nothing wrong with me and that my love was completely natural.
However, I was still slightly ashamed and didn't tell anyone until my sophomore year. My best friend since 6th grade, Justin, came out to me and said he was gay. I was so surprised by his bravery that I began to come out by telling him I was bisexual. We supported each other as we told our friends. A few people didn't like it, but we got each other through. We also participated in the Day of Silence for the first time ever that year, along with a lot of our friends.
I was a lot happier and more confident in my sexuality when I found out that my aunt was getting married and that I would be moving. I made a vow to myself to never tell anyone that I was straight. I have been at this new school since the beginning of the year, and I have stayed faithful to my promise. I am alse going to start a Gay Straight Alliance next year. I live in a really small town, and when people that weren't my friends heard, I got tripped and made fun of on several seperate occasions. I also got harassed via Facebook. But I am staying strong.
I am now free to help anyone who ever feels down on themselves and think they are alone. smile
(sorry that was still really long. lol)
