Hi, I'm new here. A little nervous, but just going to throw this out there. I'm bisexual. No one knows and I don't think I could ever come out. I have known for a long time and have had experiences with other men.
That's understandable. And Coming Out or not Coming Out is always your choice. You should only Come Out to someone if/when you feel comfortable doing so. Does staying in the closet inhibit your life/lifestyle? Or are you pretty happy living the way that you are and keeping your same-sex experiences secret?
Thanks. I've always felt that at some point I would come out, but I just find it scary. And no staying in doesn't hinder my lifestyle I'm very happy.
Thanks, I've just really been feeling the need to someone and thought this would be the place I could safely do it. I have to tell you just knowing that someone knows makes me a lot happier.
Definitely! The first time I Came Out, I was so terrified that it took me over five minutes of hemming and hawing before I could get the words out - and I was completely confident that I would get an accepting reaction from him. Afterwards, I had to just break down and cry in relief at the release of tension built up from decades of being in the closet. And I didn't really even realize that the buildup of tension was lurking in the background until the 'dam burst.' Most often we Come Out to a close friend or two first and build up a support network for people with whom we can just be true selves. The hardest people to Come Out to are usually the ones that we rely on greatly for support, friendship or unconditional love (best friends and parents).
I don't really no you but I guess I just came out. Even if it just to one person. Well I've got o go, but I'll be back later. I'm glad I found this site.
Yeah, you're Out in an anonymous sense, but still Out. And not just to me, but to everyone on this website. Congratulaltions!
and here another one you came out too. I'm also very glad that I found this place. I have no idea how I stumbled upon this site actually but I'm glad I could come out even in an on line platform. it's a start!:eusa_clap
Thanks. I just sort of stumbled on it as well. I guess it was meant to be that I could find people to come out to who wouldn't judge me. ---------- Post added 5th Jun 2017 at 11:53 PM ---------- Thanks Evitermoi.
