When and how was your "Coming Out"?

[littlemonster1480]

I came out my junior year of HS. I'm a sophomore in college now. My parents tried making me go to church to help me, but I said fuck that. I like dick way too much!

The first person I came out to was my bestie in HS. She took it really well and it definitely made us closer.
My brother found out through my myspace when I put my orientation as Bi. He's totally cool with it, in fact he tried to hook me up with a friend of his, who was 29 and I was 18 at the time. I graciously declined but then he was like "just go out with him, he'll buy whatever you want." and I'm like "holy crap what do you think I am?" Lmao

Sort of just came out to my whole floor... or rather I told a guy and my roommate, the guy told the whole floor. No one dislikes me (which is good), my roommate is proud that I came out, the other guy I assume is trying to hit on me, which is unpleasant.
Apparently the big debate on my floor was whether I was gay or not. hahaha.

I came out at age 20 - not quite as funny as for the cutie in the video, but with relief to my sister. With my parents, the atmosphere was literally frozen for half a year, slowly getting better and making place for some understanding, but the matter was not intensively discussed from them any more. With friends I came out by and by - and it keeps going.

Never really came out. People around me knew before I did. I remember sitting on my bed when I was about 13 and realized that I was a homosexual. I was like wow thats what I am, and right after the realization, I said that I'm never going to tell anyone.

When I was 19 and in college I started seeing myself as gay.

But now I'm a healthy happy homosexual!!!

 

[loveless92]

You and me had the same sort of realization

That sounds sooooooo familiar!

Some people just have a loud mouth!

When I was in college I told a friend in confidence, and he blabbed to his entire class. What made it a little awkward is that I was tutoring the class! Still - it wasn't an big deal, and apparently some girls were very disappointed - which was nice in a strange way

Almost the situation here..
I mean, I have amost sure that in the ends some of my family will accept it well (or not..), but I don't even like to think about it...
My family see this stuff, like wrong..
I have 3 brothers that are pretty against it.
No one knows about this side o me, I don't find any friend that I can really trust about it anyway..

Do what? This is the life...

I'm very much in a situation like this, although I consider myself bi (more attracted to males than females however). I'm not sure how my bro who lives in Washington would feel about it or my mom. I hear my brother (who lives in the house with us) saying he feels bad for gay people because (having never read the bible he quotes it) saying that gay people will "never inherit the kingdom of god." He has sort of this weird attitude about it but I can tell he wouldn't be thrilled (he had a friend they all suspected were gay and would joke about staying away or being careful around him). And I know my dad would be totally against it (yet he had a lesbian friend). I have to hear them say stuff like "it's wrong", the usual anti gay stuff. I did go to college and graduate, but I am in the midst (it's a very slow one) of trying to get out of my parents house and on my own. I'm scared that if I even came out that I would probably be thrown out with nowhere to go (I am a diabetic and I have just recovered from a few unrelated surgeries.) I'm not sure if I'll ever be able to tell or when I'll be able to. It's one of those times I wish I had a smaller family, less people to deal with.

Yes it happens like that. But being gay relived me of high school peer pressure. I did not have to compete with the tough boys, I did not have to prove myself to anyone.

That kept me out of a geat deal of trouble.

I still live in my home town and people treat me as, who they grew up with.

I can definitely relate

 

[ratsa]

I can also definitely relate, oh yes, i can ;-)

 

[Littleblackdick]

My coming our was fairly easy. My parent already know just need me to give them some confirmation.

 

[mjh2000]

At high school, people were pretty cool, my parents already knew.

...in the making.

i've only begun to start telling those close to me. My group of friends are the stereotypical macho men. My best friend however just straight out asked me if i was gay followed by "because if you are you know i'll love you no matter what". which then made it so much easier to come out... and since then been telling my friends who are all to my surprise very supportive. Up next the parents.. but maybe i'll wait until their done paying for my college tuition.
