When I came out as pansexual toward the beginning of 7th grade, it was over text to my best guy friend who was bi, which made it a lot easier. Eventually I came out to my best girl friend and most of my other friends who were all supportive, but my parents found out by reading my texts to my secret same-sex girlfriend. They were accepting, and there was a lot of crying and argumentation between my dad and I (who I still think is uncomfortable with my sexuality) but it could’ve turned out a lot worse, and I am grateful for that. My mom told my sister about it, but I still haven’t come out to the rest of my family. And I really want to explain to my parents my sexuality more, but I’m nervous.
