    I have decided that imma come out to Lizzy and Alina and Angie some time this week. Idk how though. It's not that I'm scared or anything, I know they will be very accepting and they've probably already guessed that I'm bi, even if they don't know I'm totally gay. So the fear thing isn't really a problem. It's just that idk how exactly. Like what do i say? We're always in the middle of a conversation so like when do i say it and how. It just feels it'd be weird to say it out of nowhere xD idk lol.. anybody have any advice?

    Good on you :slight_smile:
    I think the best way to do it would be as honest as possible....maybe you could just say - hey, I've got something to tell you...
    If they are true friends then they will be supportive.

    Good luck, you will be ok!

    You could start to tell them by saying the very generic "I have something to tell you, I'm gay/I like girls." I told my family by just saying "I like girls", then got the conversation flowing from there. That's fantastic that you know that your friends will be accepting, that's great that you have such great friends. I wish you the best of luck!

    Yeah, like the previous posters said, just bring it up XD wait for a lull in the conversation then go for it. Or do what I did and text them saying 'next time we meet up I wanna tell you something', then it'll probably be brought up by them.
    Good luck! :slight_smile:
