I'm a highschool student who has been figuring out my sexuality this past year and have realized that I have nobody to talk to about any of it due to the fact that I'm not out yet so that is why I'm on this site. Does anybody have any ideas on how I could subtly hint to the people around me that I'm pansexual so I don't have to start the conversation myself? (I have no idea how to start conversations)
Hi @Sophia04 and welcome to EC! I hope you find the support you’re looking for and best of luck on your coming out journey.
Hello, Sophia04! I’m new here too, but welcome to the forum! I don’t really have any advice other than to be patient with yourself and take your time coming out. Only tell people if you want to and you feel ready to do so. It’s nobody’s business otherwise. Best wishes to you!
Hi @Sophia04! My name is Lou and I'm Pansexual too! In my experience it's best to figure out first whether your surroundings are supportive of your orientation. Only when you are independent and/or certain that your surroundings are supportive you can share without care. Safety first. When you're in that good spot I would start by opening up to one trusted friend. Depending on how that goes you can tell others around you. All at your own pace and in a way that is comfortable to you. Good luck!
