Came out to all my Friends!

So I'm feeling really good right now!

I just came out to all my friends yesterday at our Graduation retreat and it went really well. I did it really chill by mentioning that I have been on LGBTQ websites and that I was surprised no one had figured out yet (I've been less and less subtle lately). The reactions were priceless. These are the top 4:

"okay yea well sorry (Yelena) but you're kinda flaming." :icon_wink
"WHAT? NO! YOU NEED TO TELL ME THESE THINGS OR I'LL NEVER GET IT!" :eek:
"Yea. I just didn't say anything in case you weren't and I offended you."
"Okay yea, you seemed a little bendy. Like a straw." :rolle:

:roflmao:

Actually some of them were holding out on me! I knew my one friend was bi, and I suspected another was pan (she was) but about 4 of my other friends came out as demi-sexual, as we were all talking. another as demi/pan, and one as asexual. In total there are 3 straight people who do not identify as a part of the LGBTQ community (those who are demi-sexual/asexual like guys) in my friends. We are probably the queerest group of grade 12's graduating this year. Also one of the straightest girls I know has the best gaydar of us all. How is that fair?

I was also told that apparently I am flaming. People who didn't know were suddenly telling me that "that explains so much...". I hate to break it to them but if they thought I was flaming when I was actively trying to hide that I'm gay, I must be a bonfire of homosexuality when I am out. :lol:

Anyways I'm feeling really good right now and I can't wait to get to school on Monday and not have to worry about what I say or do amongst my friends. (!)
