    Hey Everyone,
    Just wanted to post some great news!
    I told a friend of mine at work (who grew up really religious) that I was dating a girl.
    I wasn't sure what she'd say, or if she'd get weirded out or what, but she just laughed and said that she was bi too, and had dated a girl for 8 months. Ha ha. All this time, we'd worked together, and I never knew. It was a cool coming-out for her too. I think we'll be a lot better friends now that we have so much more in common.

    I think that's cool - how sometimes telling someone about your orientation can actually lead to closer relationships with them. Don't think this will work with my parents though, haha.

    Cheers.
