When I came out, it was over text to my best friend. She was supportive, so now a few months later I told my other friend, who also came out to me as bisexual. (F/13/Bisexual)

When I came out to my best friend — now boyfriend — I told him that he was the one thing I thought about almost all day. And that I had a crush on him since about 6th grade. Then he came out to me as gay, told me the same thing, and kissed me. (16/Bisexual)

When I came out to my best friend I just casually said, “I’m in a bad mood cause mom is upset that I am bisexual… which I am by the way. So do we have any chocolate?” She didn’t even give any reaction to me being not being straight, she just said, “No offense, but your mom is kind of a dick then” and then we shared a piece of chocolate and complained about the bad weekend we both had had.

When I came out I literally just walked into the lounge room and told my parents that I’m bi, and all they said was “Cool” and kept watching TV. So anticlimactic.

When I came out to my grandma I was terrified that she would stop loving me. I told her that and she said that nothing would make her stop loving me unless I became a serial killer or something. She then told me she kind of already knew. (M/28/Bisexual)

When I came out to my mom (a month ago), I though she was gonna be cool but she told me that it was “great for me to experiment things but that it wasn’t necessary to tell everyone about my sex life.” We haven’t talked about it since. I told my sister a week later and she was amazing. So I don’t know what to do with the rest of my family… (F/15/Bisexual)

When I came out to myself, it was really confusing. I have long suspected that I am queer, but I only realized that I was bi a few weeks ago. I finally understood that the reason I felt so awkward around my best friend was that I am in love with her, but I also like boys, too.
I won’t come out to my family for a few years, probably, because my parents think I’m not old enough to understand my sexuality. But I’m so glad to have accepted myself for who I am! (F/13/Bisexual)

When I came out to myself all the pain I had secretly felt and didn’t know where it came from suddenly vanished. Two years later I came out to my family and friends and I realised that they didn’t care if I was straight or not, they just loved me anyway. (F/21/Bisexual)
