    I'm going to the pride coffee that my gay friend hosts every Saturday. I've gone to the coffee many times as a bisexual, and with my son( gay and trans) and his support/ally. I know these people. I'm familiar with these people. So why am I nervous?

    I'm gay, I know I'm gay. They don't. I won't come out to them until after I'm out to my bf.

    This is my first time appearing at a pride event as a lesbian. :confused:

    You'll be fine. Just be yourself. The rest will fall into place. Have fun! :eusa_danc

    everything was fine, we had fun, played a couple rounds of exploding kittens! My bf got all pissy thinking I was ignoring his texts because he's got low self esteem. So I got back and he said he was taking off for the weekend. I thought "good! Study time!" but now he's not due to grizzly bear attacks. :frowning2: whatever. I want to move into the spare room asap

    Glad it went well. It's always scary regardless if the group you are coming out too is straight or LGBT. No one wants to be judged or questioned. It sounds like the BF if making your decision easier by the day. :wink:

    I'm sorry, and pardon the digression, but grizzly bear attacks?

    The excessive number of forest fires this year have driven the grizzly bears close to human population. Usually we camp out the Bush for free but we dont want to be too secluded with all the bears around. There have been a few attacks I'm my area recently.
