    So far, the only people I've come out to are my husband and my therapist. Tonight I told a friend. It was harder than I thought to say the words "I'm bisexual." I shouldn't have been so scared because I knew he would be cool with it, but it just freaked the crap out of me. It was relieving, but it wasn't like this huge omg moment. He just kind of took it like, ok. I suppose that's good?

    That's right, it does take a lot of courage. When I have come out to certain people, I never said "I'm gay"- I either made them guess by hinting at it or told them in a not-so-obvious way. So I really admire that ability that some have to just say it bluntly- good for you :slight_smile:

    Congratulations! That does take a lot of courage!
    Haha I also never say it outright. With one friend I made her guess and the other I told her I was 'like' a gay character in a book. Haha oh it's just too hard to say it right out.
