When I came out to my friend over the phone I said, “I like boys, and girls” to which she replied, “Oh my gosh same” and I did a double take. Coming out to my other friend was hard because first I actually needed to get her attention, then I said, “[Friend], I’m bi” and she said, “Wait, say that again” so I said it again and she was happy and jumping around, then I told her I was genderfluid. At another place I was talking with three or four people and one said, “I don’t think I know anyone who is bi” so I had to say, “Now you have!” I say that I’m bi and genderfluid because it is SO much easier to understand than saying that I might be this or that or both or something. Anyway, continue being your queer/ally self and show that closet who is boss. (NB/genderfluid/androgynous/gender is confusing/13/Biromantic/panromantic/demiromantic/akoiromantic/ace)

When I came out to my friend, it was fine at first. She started to act disappointed and ashamed to be my friend over the past few months, so I’m starting to regret letting her be the first to know. I told two other friends who were perfectly fine with it; they thought it was cool actually. But all three of them think I’m lesbian. (F2M/Polysexual/Panromantic/Akoiromantic)
