    Haha well, I've got one friend who is questioning but pretty sure she's ace/aro, one friend that identifies as "heteroflexible", one sort of friend that I sometimes keep in touch with that came out to me as bi and then (recently) "probably gay", and I've just started talking to a girl who's bi. :slight_smile: And those are ALL of the friends I have xD

    Honestly, outside of family, I think I know more LGBT people than otherwise.

    My best friend is, and some 5-10 other friends are. So... about half my friends, or maybe a bit more, are part of it, yeah.

    My best friend isn't, but my second best friend is gay. And the rest, I am not 100% sure if they are or not.

    Ever since I became friends with this girl in the ninth grade my LGBT horizons have spread out and I am far more aware of who is LGBT and who isn't. Right now I have about five LGBTQ friends but I have a LOT of straight friends too.

    One of my best friends is bisexual, another is a lesbian and another one is also bisexual.

    As for more casual friends, I have another bisexual friend and a gay friend. I also have quite a lot of LGBT acquaintances. So, yeah, my circle is pretty gay alright :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:

    My friends are a pretty different mixture. Most are goth and alternative people, some are part of the LGBT+, community, some are both, and the rest doens't belong to one of the mentioned groups.

    Oh actually it's pretty funny when I think about the LGBT+ friends :grin: I know some of them from the time in school and we are still friends. I was the only openly gay one. After finishing school one other girl of our group opened up about being questioning. Some time later one friend came out as gay, but later told us that she is trans*. Aaaand surprise, again some years later, the fourth and last of our group introduced her girlfriend to us :lol: That's life :lol:

    One bisexual female friend, one straight male, and one FTM friend are the really close ones, and a lot of lesbian friends. I've recently moved out of my longtime residency (Switzerland) so I'm trying to get along and find some new ones. Little luck so far :-/

    I have no LGBT+ friends. I have my suspicions about some people in my wider group (who I'm not too close with), but meh.
