When I Came Out

When I came out as bisexual, my mother was horrible. She started asking me the most invasive questions, like “You’re either one or the other, not bi, so are you lesbian?” and “Obviously you’ve come to this conclusion because you’ve seen some kind of lesbian porn” and “Do you have fantasies about women?” She then threatened to kill herself afterwards, texting me terrible things. When she came back, fully alive, she said I was selfish for not calling concernedly about her suicide attempt after her reaction. Coming out was the worst experience of my life, because my parents are religious. My family disgusts me.

When I came out my friends and brothers and mother supported me and only wished for my happines. I’m still yet to come out to everyone but it is such a freeing feeling.

When I came out I told one of my friends who was already gay, she was supportive and made it feel normal. I was still nervous but told my best friend and she was also very supportive. I still haven’t told my family but hopefully they’ll be supportive too.

When I came out I was with my mom watching TV and I told her that I needed to say something. I told her I was Bi and she just said she loved me and she assumed I was different like that.

When I came out I was really terrified of what my friends would think, but once I said I was bi a lot of them started coming out as bi or pan etc.!

When I came out as gay to my mom today, she fully accepted me and told me that she would always love me. She’s the best!!

When I came out to my mum, her first words were “I’m so disappointed in you.” I chuckled, thinking she was kidding. She wasn’t. Over one month since then and she still hasn’t spoken to me.

When I came out earlier today, I was a nervous wreck. It was diversity day and we had to use 10 labels for ourselves, and I included “lesbian.” I was shaking when I said it the first time. Everyone was pretty accepting, I still feel like I just imagined the whole thing.

When I came out to my mum, I said, “I need to tell you something big.” She asked if it was a girl and I said, “It’s quite the opposite, I think I’m bi.” She was really supportive and said that nothing could ever change her love for me. She’s the best.

When I came out as bisexual it was backstage of a class fundraiser play thingy… My best friend was telling my other best friend about how she was bi (I already knew) and I told both of them I was too. Later that night the other best friend told us she is a lesbain and our guy BFF said he is bi too! I guess we are the queer squad! I haven’t told my parents yet though…
