I'm a gamer boy. I game on PC and I usually use a tool called TeamSpeak. Imagine it's like skype. I use it to talk to the members of a gaming community I play with. The someone the title references is my cousin. He is about 6 months older than me, straight, open minded and living abroad with his parents and brother. He's my best friend, by far. Today I'm feeling nervous and like everyday he and I were joking around saying the usual stuff. The usual stuff for us is things like "penis" or "you are so gay". But today I felt different saying those things, also because I said them to make him stop saying them. I went upstairs to eat dinner, came back down and unmuted the Mic/Speakers... then I froze. I do not freeze. I'm almost never speechless. This close. And then I noticed that in the chat room there was a "friend"/ex-colleague. I dont like him that much. Now I'm thankful I didn't come out. I can kind of predict my cousin's reaction: Me: Ron, I think I'm bisexual... Him: So, you like penis? Me: Yeah, probably... Him: OK! and maybe after a few hours: Him: You weren't serious right? With my mother I expect laughter or something like that but that's all I can think. Wish me luck! Jay, 17 (Sorry if I didn't make myself clear, typing these serious things while nervous is difficult.)
Hello deviantattitude! First, how the hell do you like TeamSpeak? There are better tools (i'm kidding, ofc) @Seriously: Well, i'm not sure if you need advice on this, but i wish you luck! If you think your cousin will be friendly when you tell him, go ahead . But peraphs you should wait 'till you both are alone (RL or TS) Good Luck
As I said he's living in another country and he, along with the rest of the family, all come to visit the parts that are still here where I live. Maybe I'll tell him then maybe I'll tell him right now, literally. We are alone in the chat room... nervous... a lot!
I told him. Waited an hour for the reaction, he's fine with it. Almost the same reaction I predicted XD. He said it was fine and understandable. This going better than expected.
Congratulations! You have at least one person to trust about this now, and that will make everything a lot easier.
Although I felt much, much better, I am still confused. Also today I told my mother whats happening. She understood and she told me to ask a girl out. All because I also have a crush on this girl from my school... I just sent her a Facebook friend request... maybe she will help me understand something about myself! Thanks for the support guys! Couldn't have done it without you. (!)
Congratulations! Looks like things are taking a turn for the better. Glad your cousin and mother are okay with it.
