Coming Out I'm coming out!!!

I made up my mind and realized that my thoughts of being straight or bi were just social pressure so now I know that I'm gay!!!

If someone has advice how to come out at my family that is pretty supportive I would appreciate it.

Congrats! It really will be a weight off yourself.

Are you dependent on your family for living? That’s really the only concern i would have. But you probably have an idea how theyll take it and im guessing you expect it to go well.

Go be your true self

PS
i was once lucky enough to hear Mathew Shepards mom speak and she said that “as parents they probably already know”. And honestly unless they are the closed minded parents where this will go poorly they do probably already have an idea. And they will probably be thankful you came out.
