When I came out, my mom slapped me in the face and poured holy water on my head. My dad took me to temple to pray. My eldest sister became aggressive to me. They want my girlfriend and me to breakup but I am not going to do what they want me to do.

When I came out I was 14 and my friend asked me if I was asexual because I have never had crush on a guy. I told her I thought that I was a lesbian, and she was not surprised and said she thought she was bi. I felt a weight lift off my shoulders.

When I came out I just got back from seeing Love, Simon. I was really empowered and told my dad in the car that I liked boys and girls. He said it wasn’t the best timing but he accepted me. My close friends already know. (F/14/Bisexual)

When I came out to my best friend it was on a Twitter DM. I had jokingly made a comment about how I would never have a boyfriend, and she responded by asking me if it was my way of telling her I was into girls. I couldn’t lie to her. Unfortunately she went on to tell me it was ok “as long as I didn’t like everybody.” (I’m bi.) I told her that and she told me it was ok, she didn’t think I was “greedy” or anything. And I think she is ok with it; we haven’t really talked about it again.

When I came out as bisexual 2 weeks ago, I told my “short time best friend” first. What I didn’t tell her is that I found out that I was definitely bi thanks to her. So yup… I’m deeply in love with my best friend and she doesn’t know. (F/20)

When I came out… my mom didn’t really believe me but now she says things like “You gotta get your grades straightened out.” And laughs and makes it a joke with me. She also saw me looking at John Cena and Nikki Bella when we were watching wrestling with my little brothers and she said, “Ooooh you want a threesome.” (F/14)

Story #1560
When I came out today I had been trying to tell my mom for days. I’m a 27-year-old female and have been denying my feelings for a long time. I was on a bike ride when she called and heard me crying and asked what’s wrong. I kept saying how I didn’t want her to hate me or resent me and finally I told her while I sobbed. She told me she kind of figured and was incredibly supportive. (F/27/Gay)
