I'm bisexual, but I like girls more. My friends all think I'm straight. I told one friend that I was "confused". I don't know how to even bring it up. If anyone has a comming out story they want to share it would be helpfull...

Well, believe it or not...some of your friends and family probably have noticed it already :) There's going to be people who are not surprised and usually these are the people that KNOW you.
There's not a good way to come out, seriously. The worse way though is to get "caught". You don't wanna do that, it's embarassing, believe me, girl. It's going to be hard and it's not easy. Telling one friend is a good step. But how about you just sit down and tell them calmly and with confidence. They'll respect your decision more. And let them know that you do not want any of them, because that is the first thing that will probably pop in their head. ALSO, a lot of your friends are probably just like you...or at least one of them. They probably already saw signs anyway though. My guy friends knew, my mother said she "knew from the start and it was only a matter of time". Dad still doesn't know, but I will tell him later in life. My friends new because they saw that I was "re-inventing" myself into how I really wanted to be. I did that purposely, the first part of coming out is to be comfortable with yourself and explore. I started hanging out with al ot of girls, and my friends noticed. Told them I liked guys, found out two of them did also, and now nearly all of them have experienced. I did lose one friend though, but oh well. My girlfriends had one girl in their group that was gay, and guess what, everyone knew a year before she came out. WE were just all waiting for her to tell us. |
