    Today was move in day at my uni, and apparently both of my roommates ( triple room) are straight. Is there a good way to subtly bring it up, I don't really have any gay books or anything. I might just say "hey I joined the LGBT club" (assuming it's back for a second semester) when I find out about the meetings. I'm not really sure how to bring it up, and I feel like I'm slipping back into the closet.

    I'm only out to one of 2 of my roommates.

    Honestly, just stay cool with it, and if they ever ask you about girls or something like that, just say you're gay. That's how I'm gonna come out to mine whenever the opportunity comes.

    The roommate I AM out to, I just told him before we even moved in because he was the only one who contacted me prior to moving in. I was just like, ah for the record, I'm gay, just to get that out now to avoid problems later. He's cool with it, so that's an option too
