    Okay, so at the place I work there is a girl who is openly out of the closet. And from what I have read on here sometimes rather then first coming out to. Friend or family member it is easier to come out to Somone you know is lgbt. Here and I are friends, not like super close but close enough for me to tell her I think. Any thoughts?

    Consider it an option. If you're hanging out and conversing, you might ask her about being out, and if she's had any trouble with that. Then you can turn that around to say where you are.

    Yeah, I think it would be a good idea. But make sure you ask her to keep it between you and her because you're still working on coming out. Also, let her know that she's the first person you've told. That will make her feel pretty special. :slight_smile:

    Good luck!

    It is definitely something to consider. The main thing is if you are comfortable with her knowing and if you trust her not to say anything as you are still coming out. Basically, as long as you are comfortable with her knowing. Good luck!! :slight_smile:
