well, even if things are hard for you now, you'll find your people someday, and they'll accept you no matter what.it always sucks before it gets better. i believe in you!!

Thanks Moony, and no ones given me a reason to stay closeted….I just have to stop being scared

NO, its okay to be scared. its okay to feel overwhelmed. Coming out is hard, and some people may not ever do it. you'll do it when you're ready, and it will be great :)

Thanks….I hate being in the closet though so I want to get it over with as soon as I feel safe

yeah, understandable. sometimes I just wonder if I should go for it but then I chicken out.

@Shuri-the-Floof-Doggo

Not that I know of

Have you come out to anyone at all about it?

nO :))))
I’m gonna tell my trans friend tomorrow though

Good. I wish you the best of luck, and nothing but happiness, acceptance, belonging, and validation. You definitely deserve it Max. And no matter what the Notebook Community has your back

@Shuri-the-Floof-Doggo

Aw I love y’all so much.
Also god bless the friend I’m with right now who kinda knows that sometimes I have a preference over being called son or daughter. I doubt she knows why but it’s still nice.

I'm glad you've got a friend like that. They seem very nice, and accepting, and they just seem like a keeper! Treasure them with everything you have!

I actually don't know… I think it started when I was little and kept saying I was changing my name…

I actually know the exact moment for myself but it's a whole story
anyone wanna hear?

Deleted user

YES PLEASE aft!!!!!!!
and i'm not really sure either….I didn't even know that there was an option besides straight until I was like, 11 and got an instagram. but it just felt right, even when I thought I was bi

I started hanging out with a bunch of LGBTQA+ people and I found that I really fit in, so at first I thought I was just a strong ally. Then I started getting crushes on everyone though….

I had a crush on my best friend. We’re both girls. Then I crushed on another best friend. I doubted myself for a little bit. I knew I had a crush on a few girls before but I thought that maybe I was lying to myself. My mom found out I was saying i was bi and she told me that she thought it was a phase bc she thought she was gay in high school. But then I realized that I really do find women attractive and would date a woman as readily as I would date a man. (I also crushed on a few other of my female friends. Almost as many girls as I have guys this year, so.) I don’t really know what changed for me when I stopped questioning. But I know that I’m certain now.

@Euric_Knight

Is there any peeps here who were on the “I rant about my crush” chat that was a while ago?

i was (i think)

I asked this because if the people who were on there remember I talked about my crush and we’re dating now and turned out she had had a crush on me too

@actual-fandom-trash

Okay so like I got this award from a thing called Duke TIP and so they had this awards ceremony and my crush was there in this beautiful dress and like w o w I remember seeing her and just kinda !!! hit a wall and was like "am i gay??" and still dismissed it cuz there's no way I could be gay, right?

And then the next day was May 18th 2018, the same day as the Santa Fe Shooting. That shooting was like a few hours from where my school is and we had a lockdown that day. Everyone was super paranoid, including me and that led to some very last thoughts. And meanwhile my crush was being adorable and booping my nose and I looked at her and just realized that I was definitely crushing on her. Like I just had a moment and realized it

Oh my gosh Euric that's awesome!!!!!

@Becfromthedead group

So I've been an ally for a while. Most of my friends are LGBT+, so I was already around people who weren't straight/cis.
I realized I wasn't exactly straight during Ace visibility week, I think? I can't remember which year it was tbh. I read the descriptions for demisexual, and I was like, "wait a second… You mean to tell me I'm not stuck-up and picky? There's a word for what I feel?"
Still not sure what genders I'm attracted to though… I'm with a guy, but I mean, girls and people of other genders are cool too, so idk.

some days, i'm 100% certain that I am gay, and then other days I question if maybe I'm bi, and some days I just flip.the fuck out and convince myself Im doing it all for attention.

I don't think you're doing it for attention. I think you're sincere, I think you're valid, and I think you're a valuable member of the LGBTQ+ community!
