Who would you first come out to?

I first came out to my best friend, when I was 13. She was very accepting, and we're still very close friends today

 

I first came out to my twin sister, then to my mum and my dad, I then came out to my younger sister the next day, I've been out for 2 years and 2 months now to them, my grandmother was the hardest to come out to as she didn't believe me and I don't think she still does tbh, I've been out to her for a year and 1 month, my friend, I've been out to her for 2 months and my aunts and great-aunt, I've been out to them for 1 year and 11 months. I want to come out to my friend but I'm not sure if he'll accept me.

 

The first person I came out to was my best friend that also happened to be gay. She was naturally the first person I felt comfortable enough to tell, especially because it was all so new and I was still sort of in the questioning stage. She was the only one that knew for like a year and a half, and it's only been a month or so since I've started telling family members. Now, out of family members? Siblings are definitely the easiest to talk to, as long as you're close. That was my experience, anyway.

 

I first came out to my mom, but I honestly would have liked to come out to my best friend first; she was much more accepting and kind about it, especially in the beginning.

I voted for sister.

Main reason is I always wanted to have one (cos I only have two brothers). And the fact that I already imagined coming out to her (if ever I have one) and seeing her face with a supportive smile makes me feel better. Weird eh? Haha

 

I "came out" (kind of forced)to a nurse that was in my classroom when I was working in summer school. We had worked in the same classroom the summer before, so we were friendly. She asked me (in front of coworkers) if I had a boyfriend, I said no. She looks at me, and said "oh, so when are you going to get a girlfriend?" I was like, whatever. We ended up hanging out at her house that weekend, and she had asked if I was gay, and I just stared at her and quietly said yes.
The first person I really told was a friend from college.

 

I went with other: a gay friend.

 

Wow. I'm the first one to pick dad.

In all honesty, I'm closer to my dad then my mom even though I love both of them equally.

 

I came out first to a good friend. She was great about it and very supportive. With her encouragement and help I then came out to most of my friends and family.

 

My best friend. She's still the person I'm most open about my sexuality around. It's really cool because she is hella accepting of everything.

 

If in the event I had to come out all over again, it'd probably be to my best friend. After all, they are supposed to be my best friend.

 

I came out to my best friend (who is a lesbian) first. I knew she wouldnt care and would be there for me if something went wrong coming out to my family and others. Lucky for me everyone was accepting.

 

Random friend or Acquaintance. . You can walk away easily from an unaccepting rando or distant friend.

 

I first came out to my oldest brother (I have 4) because we tell each other (almost) everything. Me and him have always been different in the family so we get along well. He came out to me first (only to me) too.
I am Bisexual
He is Asexual

 

I first came out to my sister because she's like a best friend. Also, I knew that she was really supportive of all things related to LGBT.

 

Random friend or acquaintance I have problems trusting people and if you get it out up front you won't have to deal with them maybe inevitably destroying the friendship.

 

Probably my best friend. It's super easy to talk to her and she's very understanding.

 

I told my older sister first of all. She has always been very accepting of any sort of things, and so I got the support I needed. I think the most important thing is to find someone you trust and who will support you, whether he/ she is family or not.
