how?

About four months ago I came to the realization that I am bisexual. It caught me completely off guard at the time, but it wasn't entirely surprising. I'm still trying to adjust, but I think I'm ready to come out to my 6 closest friends. However, I'm stuck on how I should do it because I really don't want to make a big deal out of this since they've all totally suspected I'm not as straight as I've always claimed to be (I'm a bad actor :P). Should I just randomly blurt it out during conversation? Call an emergency meet up and announce it dramatically? I have absolutely no clue how to go about this because although I'm coming out to them, I'm not ready to come out to everyone else, so maybe a serious conversation is necessary...? idk I need suggestions

My friends would casually mention it in group conversations whenever the topic came up. Most recently, something along the lines of, "by the way guys, I think I'd like to identify as bisexual but keep it on the DL." And then the rest of us just said "okay" and went on with the conversation. Does that help? Of my friend group, 4/7 of us have identified as queer and it's never required a serious conversation.

What happened with me was i just started showing it more rather than making a big deal with it so i basically came out over a course of like 3 months then eeryone just assumed, but during this if someone asks you directly just be straight up honest. i dont personally see much point making a big deal but thats just me.

I just went up to my best friends and said, "Guys, I have something to tell you...I'm bi."
Of course, being true friends and all, they didn't judge me nor did they make a big deal out of it.
Well...except for one of them, who started "fangirling" and "shipping" me with some girl that had a crush on me at the time. :p
I think it's a lot easier to do when you're coming out to people you trust and have been around with for a long time. Just make sure these friends aren't known to gossip and spread around rumors if you don't want the entire school knowing you're out of the closet.

I came out to my new friend the other day by telling him a story about my ex-boyfriend. Kind of made it obvious by mentioning the fact I had a boyfriend. He was surprised but doesn't care. He used to be homophobic but he got over it.

Hmm well I think everyone around me guessed before I knew it. In your position I would just blatantly flirt with a girl like don't be afraid to be you basically.

You've probably been sort of repressing yourself so if you have just give yourself permission to act on your feelings .

But you know, maybe you can have fun with it and see how long until they call you on it which brings it into the open in fun way.

I wouldn't make a big deal of it. If you and your friends get into a conversation about relationships and stuff, casually mention it when you see fit. That's how I came out as bisexual to some of my friends, and they took it quite well. For me, it was better than making it a full out announcement.

not many at school know i'm bi, all my friends do and it hasn't made any difference. my brother knows, and pretty sure my parents do, or probably think i might be gay, due to a few compromising situations with my best friend :)
my parents have always let me know they love me no matter what, and for that i feel blessed, knowing not all families feel that way.
