    I would just start with close friends, then less close friends, if you're really daring put something on Facebook or something, and then you can ask people to tell others if you want, just my idea :grin:

    Awesome! I'm happy for you:icon_bigg you should come out with close friends and work your way slowly. Doing it all at once could be bit much.

    You don't have to tell everyone but might want to tell friends quickly before they hear about it or see the two of you holding hands or whatever. They might resent not being told first. Anyway, grats to you :icon_bigg
     
  7. Congrats! Also, I agree that you should tell your close friends and gradually come out. It could be overwhelming to do it to everyone at once. Good luck!

    When coming out, it is always best to start with the people you are fairly certain will accept you. Start with the easiest people and work your way up to the harder ones. That way, if the less-accepting people in your life don't accept you at first, you have a group of people who have got your back :slight_smile:

    Apparently word has started to get out. Today at lunch I got asked a very carefully worded question. It went like this:
    "I heard that you have a... significant other in the 11th grade."
    I said yes. She nodded her head (kind of surprised) an then the kid next to me congratulated me. He thinks I got a girlfriend!
