    I don't really know my sexual orientation but I have had crush's on guys and girls. One of one of my close friends (who is a guy) I tell many things too and I can trust him. Yesterday texting we go on the subject of crush's and I told him that last year I had a crush on a girl. He didn't reply negatively. I didn't really say my sexual orientation but I just said that I am confused and having a hard time trying to work it out.

    It feels like a HUGE weight has been lifted of my shoulders becasue I have be burying it. It also feels like a step towards being more open (?) and myself in a way. I currently feel a mixture of (!) this and :confused: this.

    Coming out for the first time feels good doesn't it? I'm glad to hear that he took it in his stride.

    Update: I came out as questioning to another 5 friends and a friend of friends on skype in a casual conversation. As soon as I did they all started making jokes about discovering myself using yuri or yaoi (is that it???) But after that they were dead serious and their is not pressure in finding a orientation/label. It feels really good! It was kinda a random thing to just say.
