Coming out....

[alfiethomas]

So ive been fully confident that im bisexual for some time now and have had few experiences with some guys.
But im really scared to come out to my family and close friends im afraid there take it the wrong way and turn on me...... every time i have a little bit of courage to say something they tend to make a remark against gay people and i just feel like shit inside i dunno how to come up too this.....
please help!
any advice on how and when to tell people would help alot..

Hey :)

I would say that you should only 'come out' when you feel comfortable and confident enough in yourself, at the end of the day, you can help your sexuality and opening up about it can be quite stressful for you.
Also, if you decide that the time is right to open up, you don't have to do it alone, maybe there is a friend or therapist etc that could help you?
There are also things you can try such as writing down what you want to say and planning the confrontation beforehand.

I hope things go well for you, and I think you are so brave for wanting to tell your parents.

Take care x

If you feel the time isn't right, don't say anything, its your personal choice if you feel you have to tell them. No one said you had to rush, just take your time and when you feel the moment is right then just say how you really are God luck with telling everyone. :)

100% agree with this, don't rush into telling people if you don't feel ready enough

Eventually you will find a moment that feels 'right', something subconsciously nagging at you that it is the time to do it. But I also heard of another trick, go to a public place such as a restaurant, and when you are eating tell them, that way they can't lash out at you and they won't make a scene. Hope I helped ;)
