This thread seems an almost necessity

[Mattlj]

Right I'll start at the first person I came out to.... it was one of my female friends at about 15, she asked me via MSN (lame) if I was Bi and I said yes. A few weeks later I corrected her saying I thought it would have been easier to say bi. She then helped me tell other friends etc. A few people said they weren't shocked etc.

My school peers, I had to tell when I started dating a guy and we'd walk around kiss, hold hands and do all the things that other couples would do. Clearly some hostility from some people but you keep your head down and ignore it.

Family were meh as no one ever speaks of it.

And incase anyone doesn't know 11/12 (USA, UK) of October is National Coming Out Day.

Why "an almost necessity?"

Your family will probably be less "meh" when you bring someone home.

Yay coming out day!!! I guess I could do that again, for my sakes. As a reminder that... "I am beautiful, no matter, what they say, words can't bring me down..." LoL, Christina Aguilera is a phenom.

Good man

Until such time as PA and I get married I don't have a mother-in-law, more a mother-outlaw and we get on fine.
