Grandma; Who’s this on your relationship status?
me; .. that’s my girlfriend..
Grandma; You never told me you were gay kayla.
me; you never asked so i didn’t think it was important.

Nobody knew and everyone thought i was a slag for guys (I still dont know why) anyway me and my family all decided to go for a meal because my incredibly religious grandparents were visiting. My brother stood up and said ” everyone, stacie likes vagina” I went bright red and ran out. I then told everyone close to...

How I came out to my sister
I think I knew I was bisexual for a while, but it took me time to piece it together because for me, I never really liked people. Crushes don’t happen very easily with me since I guess I’m a more logic over impulse person. Anyway, I asked her questions and stuff in the beginning of my high school career, because my sister was very close with me and someone I could always go to for...

I Crashed the Car
So I’m pretty open about my sexuality ever since I was outed by my friends in secondary school when they read some texts between me and a girl I was seeing at the time. I won’t shove the fact down anyone’s throat, but if they ask or a subject comes up to do with it, I’ll tell pretty much whoever that I’m bi. Telling my parents on the other hand was a little difficult...

Coming out as Bi to my best friend
I’ve know that I’m Bisexual since 2010 and sometime during 2011 (I can’t remember exactly when) I wrote on my Facebook status that I’m bi.. Some people liked and I didn’t really think about it I just thought everyone would know then. I also came out on my blog and twitter. Anyway this story is about when I came out to my friend.
Today the 31/1 2012 I texted my...

That Awkward Moment When...
I was still unsure about my sexual preference around this time, so I’m not sure if this counts as a legitimate outing. I was walking to class with a friend, talking about this guy I was being intimate with at the club the previous night, saying that he was a little androgynous but I still kind of liked him. Thinking that my friend knew about my questioning I joked, “Now if only I could...

Better Than Expected
I went to Arizona last year to visit my brother and sister. I’d been thinking that I should probably tell them for months beforehand, but I was more than a little worried about how they’d react. (The three of us haven’t had the best experiences with the term “Bisexual”)
We were out for a drive and had stopped at a gas station to fill up and for my brother to buy been when my brother saw one of...

Telling the brother...
So, my dad came out when I was in grade 10, my brother was 19. At the time I was a raging Christian homophobe, of the bible thumping variety, and needless to say things got ugly.
Two years later, after attending a Christian liberal arts college, I realized that being gay was A-OK thanks to a radical Theology prof. Anywho, many tearful facebook messages and heartfelt apologies later, my dad and I...

The Immortal Highlander
One night my parents and I were watching Highlander on Netflix when, lo and behold, Duncan McCloud was suddenly shirtless. Again. So, as usual, I squinted my eyes shut and made a face until it was over, which made my dad tease me a bit about boys and whatnot. And I felt this weird little urge to say something so…
Me: I’m pretty sure I’m gay.
Dad: (laughs) Like we didn’t...

In the proccess
Im 12 years old, i figured out about last year that i’m BI
I spent about a month trying to figure out the right way and the right time to tell my mom and dad.
I told my gay uncle last night because I knew he would accept me.
I didn’t exactly know how to tell them in person so I left them a note in their bathroom saying this-
dear mom and dad, i love you guys so much, through our...

Coming Out
Looking back, I knew I was gay for a long time. I didn’t really come to terms with it and accept it on my own until Sophomore year of high school. I never told anyone, family or friends, because I was deathly afraid of being rejected or something worse. I came out to my best friend, and she was totally indifferent yet supportive, and while that was a positive experience I was still far to...

I don’t really know why I’m writing this, haha, I’m listening to a particularly saddening song right now, thinking about life and such, crying my eyes out over a stupid comic I don’t even like that much and will probably forget about.
It’s eight a.m., because I live in Asia, and I’ve been up all night, so my memory probably won’t be very reliable. And...

Not Entirely Surprising
I waited until I was absolutely certain that I was a lesbian before I chose to come out. I was hardly having doubts, but I guess that was the excuse I used whenever I chickened out. However, when I found that I couldn’t watch episodes of Castle without falling in love with Beckett every single time her face showed up, I decided maybe it was time.
My family is a pretty close-knit bunch, and...

I was really worried about telling my ex-boyfriend (who was also one of my best friends) that I was gay. I thought he’d think that he had something to do with it or not believe me because I went out with him but when I told him he just said ‘I know. You’re not exactly subtle, are you?’ I refrained from saying ‘Well, you didn’t notice when I had my tongue down...

Chillin' in the doorway
I haven’t really come out of the closet yet, most of my friends and my brother know, but my parents don’t know. And I don’t plan on telling them until after high school. My best friend says I’m chilling in the doorway.
Anyways I came out to one of my friends today, unintenionally really. We were talking about past relationships and I said “Oh my last girlfriend was...

Coming out to my sister
Coming out to my sister was good.
Me: I need to tell you something big.
Sister: Okay, go on.
Me: I’m bisexual.
Sister: Oh okay! So who do you like?
She also told me she’ll love me no matter what and commented on the love I’ve got for Logan Lerman.
She might be a plonker sometimes and we might fight, but she really is a treasure to have.

When I came out to my mother, it was pretty anticlimatic. I was about fourteen years old and had discovered that I had a crush on a girl, and subsequently discovered that I was in fact attracted to girls as well as boys. At that time, I figured that I was bisexual (I have since redefined myself as pansexual) and since I was raised quite liberally, it wasn’t much of a deal for me, except for...

Coming out twice.
I first came out to my mum when I was 14. At this point, I was in a state of complete confusion; I was certain I liked men but thought I may be bisexual or at least didn’t rule out women. Although this confusion persisted for a couple of years, I still think it was almost an excuse so as not to accept that I was gay. I have now come to terms with my sexuality, and if I have to classify myself, I...
