come out

I find this such a difficult thing to do.

I am going to start a new course next month – and I want to be a lot more out now than I am now.

I am bisexual.

The trouble is that I do not feel strong enough to come out to everyone new that I meet.

This means that I will probably have to be careful who I meet and in what situations I meet them.

That is why I have decided to join Amnesty International and the LGBT.

I will make friends on my course (is this easier with girls?) and only come out in circumstances where I feel comfortable.

I have a really close friend who I would like to ‘sort of’ come out to.

In the past she has hinted that she is bi.

The best thing would be to get pissed with her again… and then talk about it… VERY CAREFULLY.

SUPER CAREFULLY. She is a major christian and I don’t want to upset her. But, like I say, I think she is bi herself.

In fact she is very keen on monogamy – so I don’t want to lie to her.

I’m bisexual.

I have a preference for guys – but I love girls too.

I’m 25.

At uni, I am going to be much more open about my sexuality.

But I’m also going to be smart. I won’t try and make friends on the football team for example (not so gay friendly!)

I will make friends at the LGBT and at Amnesty Internationa societies.

If I make friends on my course, I will tell them when I think we are starting to become close.
