*thoughtful expression*

Sun Oct 11, 2009, 7:15 PM
So, today is National Coming Out Day. As in, tell your parents you might just be a little gay.

This close *pinches fingers close together*

Ok, not really.

I don't even know what to call me, Bi I guess.
I feel safer with women, men make me want to run away and I just don't feel, I guess safe with them.
I've been confused about this for a long while, since middle school I would say but I've kept my mouth shut since I didn't have anyone to talk too.

My mother and father I guess, are open people. They would accept me if I was Gay, Straight, Trans, Bi, or Asexual. But, it doesn't mean I want to tell them. My mum I guess would be ok with it but my father would probably make fun of me (in his own way not in a mean way) but I feel too embarrassed.
But I think, what if I ever do get a girlfriend or something? I don't have to tell them but I would feel bad.

I told my mum it was national coming out day and she goes "have something to tell me?" I just ignored her and brought up another conversation.
Hurhurhur

She almost set me up with some guy and I'm glad she didn't I would have cried.

I mean the fact that I'm posting this here is a big leap for me. I just started to talk to my friends about this and even then it's hard for me.
*sigh*

I will one day, just not now. I'll think of how I'll tell them. S'not like I'll be letting them down or nothin'. They know there is a good chance they aren't getting any grand kids outta me LOL.

I should find someone to talk to about this, maybe it'll help me build up some courage.

I bet my parents know, they are sneaky and know things.

bastards lol.

You know you always have me to talk to ^ w ^

Since I seem to have went thought the EXACT same thing you did. The whole just really not feeling safe with men thing =\ I mean I had always been attracted to girls and so I just kinda figured I was bi, until I actually dated a guy and it just felt awkward and weird... and yeah, bottom line they just make me feel uncomfortable. I can be friends with them, but dating them ish just nah...

And I came out to my mom and felt alot better about everything = w = Like at first she was kinda "Eeeeeehhhhhhhhh......" about the whole thing, but now she is very accepting about it, and yeah she teases me but in like a loving way and I actucally like it, it makes me smile to know that she can just be so open and joke about it. :P

You can talk to me too.

I just recently came out to my parents that I like guys and girls because I don't have a gender preference, but I also told them I liked Caitlin. Yea, its a tough conversation, but I have good parents and my mom kind of started guessing on me so I just told her. Even at my age, it can still be a little awkward to your parents, but I think in the end, being open about it is a lot better than hiding it.

Thank you!

Yeah, I mean I really don't have anything to fear like some kids do (getting kicked out ect.)
But, for some reason I feel like I shouldn't tell.

But again, thank you.

:3 thank you! *hugs*

Exactly as you said for a long while I felt as though I was bi and so it wasn't an issue but then anytime the prospect of dating a guy arose I didn't like it. I just didn't feel safe. I don't mind having guy friends at all but dating a guy gives me the willies.

I should tell my mum at least since she's the most "whatever" about it.
Still I feel apprehensive, but one day I'll get the nerve and tell 'um.

*does a raising courage dance* YOU CAN DO IT! HAHAHA!

It'll probably end up like when I told my Mom I was bi. I told her by telling her about my girlfriend (Draco) and she was like "Uh. Yeah. I already knew, you dipshit!" She said this in her loving way XD

Anyways, just be thankful your parents won't disown you/kick you out if you come out to them! Think of it as a way of ensuring your Mom won't try to set you up with guys anymore XD

And there are far worse things you could be telling your parents, after all. I mean, this could actually alleviate some of their worries! They won't have to worry about you makin babies 8D!

I have the same problem, Cat. I honestly don't know what to label myself so I decided not to label myself. I happen to like guys and girls, maybe guys a little bit more since I've been around guys more and I tend to be shyer around girls, but I've never really thought of myself as bi before...

My parents...I dunno...I think they'd be open if I ever told them that I like both genders, but it'd be awkward, at least right now.

But always know that I will be here to support and talk with you! :D

It's such a confusing topic really and it doesn't seem that society demands labels for everything.
Blagh, I'm glad you decided not to label yourself ra-ra fight the power!

LOL at your mom's expression.

Yes, I am very thankful for my parents :D

They don't have to worry about me making babies in the first place. LOL. I can't make children, the world would implode if more of me ran around.
Let alone with the DNA of a man I felt was right enough to help me make them.

*hugs*

yeah my Human Sexuality Course last fall taught me that labeling oneself is really difficult so I figured I wouldn't ^^
