How did you come out? Or, how do you plan on coming out? Any advices??
I'm planning on coming out to my cousin before this summer ends (she's the only understanding person in our family and I think she has a girlfriend) but I don't have the courage to do so. I'm super confused how I'll do it. And I would like to learn your stories about coming out or maybe some tips!!
((I think there was a thing like this but I haven't been in here for such a long time so idk I'm sorryy))
Haven't come out yet. But I've casually given my parents some clues (like asking their opinion on LGBT and blah blah blah) I don't actually plan on coming out I just plan to bring a girlfriend home and introduce her as my lover, just like any straight person would. 1 reply
I came out to my family little bit more than a year ago. It's quite a funny and touching story xD
I was really struggling about how to tell my mother that I'm gay. After talking with my boyfriend (now ex), he suggested that maybe if I can't say it, then maybe I should write a letter. So I wrote quite a long letter explaining how I feel and things ...... 1 reply

Wasn't really planning on telling my parents at first, but after around a year of so, I couldn't really hold it in me to stay silent any longer. My dad came to pick me up, so we were just sitt...... 2 reply
I'm bi and I never really felt the need to make a big deal out of coming out. I've never been the type to commit to relationships and don't plan to be until I have a decent career instead of just a shit job and a cheap apartment. My family is pretty progressive and accepting anyways so they wouldn't mind but I don't really feel the need to divulge ...... reply

Go for it if you're comfortable to do so, that's amazing! Just tell them. And, if you like to be extreme, you can always count on ~puns~
Jump out of your closet screaming like a dying duck; put rainbows and write "Im " on a mug and dramatically drink from it in front of them ("just chilling, sipping my cup of tea" with the applying-blush-face)
