    I think it went pretty well! I'm 14 and in high school, year 9. I had English 2nd lesson and it was so boring I subconsciously drew a rainbow flag on my hand. Then realised what I was drawing and chuckled to myself. At the end of the lesson, my friend came up to me, saw my hand and went 'GAP much.'

    And then at lunch, her (we'll call her S) And her friend/crush (Wel'll call him M) were eating when he spotted the rainbow and went to me 'you do realise that's the LBGT flag, right?' And I chuckled and said 'well, duh!' To him and hoped they'd get the point. They didn't.

    The conversation after that pretty much went like this:
    M: being gay is weird. Why would you want to go out with the same gender? What's the difference between being gay and actually just looking for the right straight relationship?!
    S: That's mean. Gay people deserve happiness too!
    M: *drops his club bar by accident*
    Me: *picks up the club bar and gives him it (he's in a wheelchair and can't get it)* have this, you homophobe.
    M: thanks. *takes a bite out of it.*
    Me: you're eating food that a lesbian has touched!
    *all start laughing* (inside joke, S and I have been planning our wedding)
    Me: no, I'm serious. I'm a lesbian.
    M&S: really?!?!?! (X1000000000000000000)
    Me: yes. Woooo, goodbye Narnia!
    *all die laughing, teaching assistants get very worried and head teacher walks in to enquire whether we're all ok*

    Then a while after, my friend says to me. I hit her, and then she goes "see?! You're always <I>hitting<I> on me!"
    And we die laughing.

    Yup, just hope my parents are this easy.

    Now, just for the rest of the school to find out -.- I'm looking forward to school tomorrow. Not.

    They thought I was joking -_-

    I told another of my friends (we have a little group of 4) at break, and they didn't really take it seriously... And then the penny must have dropped at lunch because S said to me:
    "Promise I won't be upset, or find it awkward to be around you or anything but... Are you really a lesbian?"
    And I just said back to her that I was being serious, and was definitely a lesbian... And she sort of just nodded and went on eating. I don't quite know how to interpret that... :confused:

    :/

    I have managed to tell quite a few people. One of my old best friends, and some random people that have asked :slight_smile:

    You don't attend high school, it's secondary school :wink: (and I heard the head teacher there now sucks, sorry!)

    But woo! Happy for you

    I always get confused between high/senior school. I spend too much time around Americans XD

    And he isn't great XD. He told me off for my trousers being too tight (this is after suffering from (mild) anorexia) and put me in a pair of huge boys trousers :frowning2: and I got upset because I thought I looked fat, text my mum and she came to the school and fucking slaughtered him XD

    Thank you, Nychthemeron!

    Yeah, everything I've heard about him was bad. Although, that school kinda needs someone strict as hell. I remember hanging out by the tree with my friends while they (not me, I'm a good girl) got high during lunch. Ah, the days of drug searches, police officers casually strolling around, and trying to avoid being caught up in a fight! How I miss them (not). I hope everyone there treats you good now you've come out!

    Can't believe he made you change though. I'd have thought he'd have shoved you in BSR (which is what the old head used to do)

    He's strict... But it doesn't make a difference because no-one respects him. He said to us on his first assembly, and this is a quote:
    "I am generally a grumpy person, and I don't like kids much."

    Umm... Ok then.

    He's brought in a new 'PATHS' marking scheme, which teachers are really struggling with because it takes 20 minutes per book.

    And he does random sniffer dog checks too -_-

    I'm quite a good girl. I'd never smoke. *shudders*

    Jesus Christ I thought the sniffer dogs were a joke!

    I'm so glad I'm free of that place. It was hell. College is ten times better!
