When I came out for the first time it was to my sister. She kept bugging me about one of my ex-boyfriends, so I told her that I liked someone else (which I do) so she kept asking me who. After days of her guessing I finally told her. She wasn’t too surprised but was still a little shocked. Since then I’ve told my friends and twin brother.

When I came out as bisexual my friend told me, “Wait, but girls can’t like girls. That’s just wrong. Ya know what? It’s probably just a phase anyway.” She was the first person I ever told, so now I have a fear of telling anyone else because I think they’ll have the same reaction.

When I came out for the first time, it was over the internet. I told everyone on a random chat site, “I’M BISEXUAL!!” and then cried for an hour, confused about my feelings for both guys and gals. That was when I was 10. I’m now thirteen and am terrified of being accepted in the real world. (F/13/Bisexual)

When I came out, it was to my mom and stepdad over a dinner of hot wings and cheese fries.
Me: I have something to tell you.
Mom: What?
Me: I don’t know how to say this.
Mom: You have a girlfriend.
Me: Close. *sigh* This is hard.
Mom: Just say it.
Me: I’m queer.
Mom: So you’re a lesbian?
Me: No. I don’t really want to get into it right now.
Mom: You have to educate us.
Me: Well, I date boys and girls and everything in between.
Mom: Oh. Okay. I love you.

When I came out I was trying to convince an homophobic friend that gay is okay so I accidentally shouted, “IF I BRING MY GIRLFRIEND WOULD YOU BE OKAY” in front of a classroom and my math teacher.

Story #1150

When I came out (a few hours ago) to my grandma, she was in the kitchen and I just entered the house. She started teasing me about boys, and I turned around debating on what to do about this. After a few hours of work, I went back inside to change clothes and she called me into her bedroom to talk. She was upset because we never really talk anymore, and I told her it’s because you always tease me about boys and I kinda swing more towards girls and that’s why I go to my school’s GSA. She told me that’s ok, and to get myself together, and she just wants me to be happy.
