Lydiathebandkid Posted April 8, 2022 Share Posted April 8, 2022 (edited) I am bi and I am thinking about coming out to a few of my close friends. They are not homophobic and a few of them are LGBT+ but i'm scared about what they will think about me/if it will be awkward/if they will see me different. I tend to be an over thinker to so i don't know if I should just be like "I'm bi" or if i should try to be more causal. I've come out to two friends so far and they've been super supportive. Any advice? Edited April 8, 2022 by Lydiathebandkid MultiQuote Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any advice? Hey there, Your worries are completely normal, but the fact that they aren't homophobic and some of them are LGBTQ+ tells me that they will be supportive. What do you think? With this in mind, is there any chance that they will feel awkward about it? MultiQuote Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think they will feel awkward but I had one friend said he always knew and a few others where surprised. I think i might just wait for it to come up in conversation again because it's not a uncommon topic MultiQuote Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do get the hunch they will be supportive and encouraging, but it's completely normal to question how people around you will react because it's a big moment isn't it? How are you feeling about it all now? MultiQuote Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
