    Just sit down with her and tell her your honest thoughts. You guys have been dating for half a year and she deserves to know. Talk about what you've gone through and see if she has any questions for you about your sexuality. I think the most important part is honesty and making sure she understands that you really like her and your sexuality doesn't change that.

    Honestly, if you've been dating for half a year, you're gonna be close right? So she'll probably accept you as the same person she decided to date six months ago. (*hug*)

    I would imagine that after 6 months you and your girlfriend have built up a fair amount of trust. I think you should just be completely open with her.

    Secrets have a way of undermining almost any healthy relationship. What’s the point of having a girlfriend (or boyfriend) you can’t be your complete and honest self around them?

    Chances are that she’ll be honored that you trust her enough to share such a deep part of yourself with her.

    If she responds poorly – that’s ok too. Why be with someone that isn’t able to accept the real you anyway? Better to figure that out now rather than later after you’ve invested more time, emotions, and energy into the relationship.

    Good luck.
