Hi, so for a long period of time I have been thinking if I am bi or not.
2 years ago I finally knew that I am bisexual. Now I have been struggling with this for 2 years and I finally decided to tell one of my friends, who I really trust. Do you guys have any tips to tell her or things I certainly don't need to tell/do?
Thanks x

For me, I was luckily in a very accepting social circle, and I was just starting college. So I didn't necessarily come out, so to speak, I just mentioned it and word got round. Everyone's very accepting, and though occasionally ignorant I don't think I've had malicious comments about it.
Best advice I can give is to be confident. If you act like it's completely normal (which it is) and it's not a big deal, I'd be surprised if someone else called you out on it or made a fuss either. Good luck, and all the best :)

That's good for you! It takes a lot of courage to come out, especially the first time around. All I have to recommend is that you just think about how the other person might react. If you think they'll react well, then tell them. I've told pretty much everyone that I know because I'm comfortable, but there's definitely a few people in my life who still think I'm straight as a stick. I haven't told them because I'm not really sure they'll react positively, but maybe if I get some insight (like ask them their opinions on the LGBT community, if they think bisexuality is real or not, etc) I'll consider telling them.

I have struggled the same and have come to a resolution. Read my thread to see how I have resolved my struggle. Also, read my blog. Best wishes for you as you work this out in the right way for you.
