When I Came Out

When I came out I told my friend in the park. She said okay and threw a cake at me. We had a food fight and she just told me we had a gay fight, and that’s how she came out to me 🙂

When I came out it was at my friend’s birthday sleepover party at 1 in the morning. We were playing Marry F*ck Kill and my friend gave me 3 guys. I killed one, then said, “Can I have girls? I’m lesbian.” They said, “Wait, really?” I nodded yes, then they gave me girls.

When I came out as asexual my mum said that it was the best thing for a 15-year-old to be. I’m not sure if she fully understands it but I can live with that.

When I came out as transgender for the first time, my best friend’s initial reaction was, “Do you know how much that’s going to cost?” I believe I have told everyone that I have come out to since, because of how funny it is now. Obviously at first I was like, of all things to say, she says that. She accepts me completely and our relationship hasn’t changed.

When I came out… I set out all of the pots and pans my family owned on the counter. I placed a sign saying, “Surprise! I’m straight…. STRAIGHT UP PANSEXUAL!” When they came home, they first were shocked, but accepting.

When I came out to one of my best friends, she asked me who the lucky girl was. I was so nervous to tell her, but it didn’t even phase her train of thought. Relief poured over me and I filled her in about the girl I was talking to.

When I came out… I got a wedding invite in the mail. My mom asked me if i was taking my best friend. I pondered on it for a few hours, then I came back to the invite… I got the courage and bluntly said, “There’s something I need to tell you. I’m gay. I want to take a guy.” She hugged me right away, told me she loves me no matter what and she knew.

When I came out (2 or 3 months ago), I told one of my closest friends. She took it amazing, she even started jumping for joy! I’ve lost 1 friend, no surprise, he was religious (because of course) and one makes jokes about my crush, who I told I was gay last day of school. He took it well (I think) but he doesn’t know I like him. A lot of people know except for my family.

When I came out, it was to one of my closest friends. I was choking on my words before I finally told her and her reaction was “Oh… I didn’t know…” and then we just laughed and played video games all night.

When I came out, it was to my old punk band a year after high school. We had been getting very heavily into psychedelics and I decided that enough was enough and I knew I had to move on. I needed to become a positive person on my own and coming out would be a major step. They all said they sort of guessed. When I asked them how, they simply said, “Every time we make a gay joke, you get all red and quiet”. Even today, when my guitarist gets a little drunk, he’s always trying to get me to kiss him haha.
