    So about a week ago, I finally came out to one of my best friends, and it went really well! In fact she told me that she was bisexual too! She also said that she kind of figured me out years ago before I even realized it myself. Who would have thought? I'm just so happy that it went so well.

    She is the only person (other than the EC community of course) that knows I am bisexual. But it is nice to finally not have to hold it all in and keep it to myself. It's a small baby step, but at least someone knows!

    Congrats, you must feel really good now. I had this feeling when I first told someone that in that moment I had someone I could talk about that face to face. It helped me a lot!
    I'm really happy it went well with you :slight_smile:

    Thank you everyone!

    It definitely is nice to have someone to talk about this with face to face. Plus now we can check out guys and girls together so that's also a plus!
