Lol, is your grandma too supportive? My friends mom is like that, she's gayer than him most days and there is definitely a point where you feel overly supported haha. She has rainbow stuff on everything people often confuse her for a lesbo.
I never knew a time that I didn't know. I was 4 when I realized girls gave me funny feelings in my tummy just like guys did. I was 11 when I had my first dream about kissing a girl. Had a massive crush in my early teens on Kim Stolz as one of my early LGBTQ+ influences. She was on America's Next Top Model. Didn't say anything about my sexuality to another person till I was 19 and questioned being bi. At 22 I took the final leap and came out to my parents after many of my friends had known for give or take 2 years that I was bisexual and preferred girls.
Hey! I'm here for you, it took me a long time to come out and I did it in stages too. My mother defiantly has had to strongest opinions and as a daughter who really wants my mom to be okay with my future partner I just want to retreat into the sexuality that she approves of.
18, I guess. Rarely did I actually get to "come out" as people tend to just ask before I get to tell them. Often times before I was ready to tell them. But I'm out as hell now.
Hi. Thanks. Yeah my mom honestly couldn't care and probably assumes I will get older and die alone... which is probably right but it's because of her I have had to make these choices to be closeted. I can't be the sexuality she wants...so I am just nothing. No sexuality. Basically making myself an amoeba Doesn't help that I was outed at work yesterday
The thought first crossed my mind when I was around 12 and I had my first kiss (with a girl jeej, should have been a big giveaway) when I was 15. Took me another 5years tho to figure it out. I'm 20 now and out to all of my friends and my brother but not my parents and the rest of my family so I'll probably be completely out at 21
27, to my best friend. I didn't know I was gay at age 12, but I definitely was attracted to other guys looking back on it. I just couldn't add up 1 + 1 = gay until later in my life, about age 16. Then it took another 7-8 years to accept it about myself, and another year or so to come out to my best friend. But if I had more of an idea of what being gay actually meant, if I was more educated about it, I would've known that the feelings I had at 12 meant I was gay.
I had crushes on girls and boys throughout elementary school. I figured I was bisexual when I was 12. I first came out to a close friend sometime last year. (16 yrs old)
I came out to friends and immediate family when I was 20-21. Looking back I knew something was different from when I was 14 and it was a long and gradual process to accept it and act on it.
I came out to my mom as bi when I was 13—she didn't take it well. Thought it was just a phase. :/ A darn long one since my first crush was a girl lmao
I’m still 13, but so was I when I came out to my best friend. I’m out to like 20-ish people, I’ve lost count at this point.
Now that I look back on my life so far, I've known I did not ever want to be with a guy since probably five or six. I didn't know that being gay was a thing (I probably found out around sixth grade maybe?) but I can see know how I have know my whole life. (That was a super confusing sentence I am sorry). I am only out to one person, and I came out to them when I was 14. I have been wanting to come out for almost three years though (I'm 15), I just haven't found the right time? Person? Some combination of those things.
