So i'm thinking of coming out to my friends as gay/bi but I don't know how to do it (Keep in mind i've already had sex with one of the guys). Does anyone have any advice or 'coming out' stories to share?

thnx :)

Well I can tell you how I did it and maybe that will help you.

I would text my freinds "what would you say if I was gay?"
I'd wait for their responce and then when the texted me back "y are you?" I would tell them.

Try to break to whomever you tell gently. It's a big thinmg for not only you to accept but for others to accept as well

Texting and online communication for telling someone your gay is a great way to break the ice. However, telling someone face to face can make your relationship with that person even stronger. Think about all the positive things you would get out of sitting down with someone and having a long conversation about your sexuality to your best friend without the complications of telecommunications...

Just try your best to do it without the internet and phones, face to face and friend to friend :)

I don’t suggest you tell anyone about the guy you had sex with because he might not want anyone to know. But coming out is always good.

Well, I usually wait until they ask me 'cause a lot of people do lol, even before I knew, but try to make it seem like it, like go on a huge rant about how the government making gay marriage illegal is messed up and maybe they'll ask you. But if you feel like they're taking to long or something just say "Hey, can I talk to you about something?" and make sure you two are somewhere where you and the other person aren't trap (for example on a school bus lol) and try to build up to it, don't go like "I'm gay/bi!" That's all I really got for you. I told my one friend when she asked me and basicaly told everyone else so I didnt' really have to tell anybody except for one person.
