Did others realise your sexuality before you?

I've been asked if I was gay multiple times, but sometimes in a joking way (although, behind every joke is a bit of truth).

There are some people who think I could be gay. Probably even more than I know of. But no one has ever said 'Hey, I think he's bisexual' or asked 'Hey, are you bisexual?' because that, for some reason, is just something that doesn't regularly happen.

So to answer your question: No, I guess.

 

Yes, the first person I came out to said that he had suspect I wasn't straight for quite some time.

 

Yes. The girl I'd been seeing when I was about twenty didn't even ask. She told me I wasn't straight. When I came out to her, she just said, "I know." Honestly though, nobody I've come out to with my orientation has been that surprised.

 

Yeah. Although I don't think they believed I wasn't straight because of my attitude or personality. I've always been a very pro-gay kind of person even before I knew I was pan, and I guess everyone assumed I was gay because I supported the LGBT community.

If that makes sense.

 

I think that my mom may have had an idea. Growing up, teachers called my parents because I did not act like a girl. (Stupid right?) She was still surprised when I told her.

 

The only one who ever called me gay was a bully in highschool and that was probably meant as an insult, not an accusation.
But yea, everyone assumes I'm straight and I've never heard of a situation were someone was asked if they were bi.

 

I have had a couple of people ask if I was gay, because if there was an opportunity to act frilly, I would go for it!
That and a couple people asked if I loved my best friend in middle school, because apparently I was "a little too close". I was, but I promptly denied it.

Other than that, most of the people I had told were accepting, but kinda think I'm lying or doing through a phase. I can't blame them so much because alot of people we know say they're gay one week, then Bi, then straight, then Pan, then whatever. So it kind've ruins it.

So to answer more directly, (sorry!) yes, some people "knew" before me.

 

One of my friends knew long before I did.....I don't know how.

 

A couple of years ago, one of my friends asked if I was but I had made a joke or a comment that could lead to her thinking I'm gay. I told her no because at the time I had never thought about it.

A couple of my friends that know, sorta thought it and my cousin had her suspicions. I think my gay aunt sorta guessed it when I got my cardboard cut out of Brittany from glee. One of my uncles probably suspects it, I mean most of our conversations do go back to Brittana.

But now probably more people will suspect it because I don't hide anything as much. Like I'm not out, but I talk about LGBT stuff all the time.

 

Most of my friends knew before I did, it was kinda creep :eek:

Like my friend, L (I like referring to people by the first letter of their first names online), she always keep asking if I was a hundred percent sure if I was straight, because she knew guys that liked me. I wasn't able to come to terms with it until a year later, so unfortunately some of those guys had graduated already... =/ Figures huh

 

no, actually others have alwyas thought i was very girly and tried to force me being something im not

 

I was asked if I was a lesbian a good bit before I accepted the thought

 

I'm pretty sure everyone knows I'm gay without me even telling them.. But to be honest I have absolutely no idea how :s

 

I've had one friend ask me if I was gay before I came out... come to think of it, I haven't come out to her yet either. Nobody else seems to have known, or they're denying it through their teeth.

 

My parents and friends had asked if I was gay before but I always said no. Once I came out to some of them they never said i told you so or anything. It was cool.
