Okay, a few years back I came out to my family as Bi (Bisexual) and they talked behind my back quite a bit. I have been gay my whole life and I know that but I told them I was bi to see how they would react. They have accepted it to an extent but now I feel like i'm lying to myself about who I am and I want to tell them that I am gay. However I am to scared to do it because I don't want to be judged anymore than I already am. I don't know who I would tell first, or even how I would do it. . .
Any advice???

You've already come out to your family about being gay and again as bi, do you really think they will be able to tell the difference.

Seeing as they know that you are bi, telling them that you're gay would be easier, as you've already half way done it. At the end of the day, you can't change who you are, and so they will get over it, with time, i won't say that it will be instant, because it won't. They will eventually stop the judging, and you will feel a lot better for telling them the truth.

if you come out to them as gay, the chances are you will feel better about yourself, it doesnt havt o be right now, just when your ready

since you came out as bi, you don't really have to say you are gay, just show it...comment more on guys, or however, somehow prove that you aren't bi, and that you are gay. But this is just a suggestion

Well, I understand your situation. You have already come out as Bi, so they already know you are at least somewhat homosexual. I don't think telling them you are Gay will have any extreme effect on they way they treat you. If you know that one family member in particular took it better than the rest, try telling them first so they can support you when you tell the rest of your family. Also, consider waiting a while and letting them figure it out for themselves. You do not have to come out right now, while it will make you feel much better, you do not want to do it until you are prepared to face anything they havve to say to you. I hope I have not discouraged you in any way, and if you need to talk or have anything to say, lease feel free to pm me. Good luck! :)
