    Err, well if you 'want' to come out to them then i suggest you do so.

    Do it in a direct way so there's no confusion. Just bring it up when the time feels right - if you're watching a movie and the subject comes up perhaps, also nothing wrong with taking them aside and telling them in a formal conversation type scenario.

    Good luck!

    Is the "c" on your keyboard broken?

    I suggest hinting or writing a letter if you can't bring yourself to do it in person. Chances are they already know if they are the only two people you're not out to, and you're so close with them. Go for it!

    Either write them a letter or have your best friend by your side when you do it. That should make things a little easier on you.
