Should I come out in highschool? - Isabelle - 04-21-2014 01:12 PM
I'm 15 as of February, early, and I'm sure that I'm into boys and girls. I don't know how either parent will react, it could go both ways. Especially since I'm bisexual, I feel it'll be more difficult to proceed with.
Then I have my friends. I do hang with the b*tchy, popular type, though I am definitely the outcast of the group. How do I come out to them? Should I make a big deal and make a Facebook status? I don't know.. is 15 a good age to come out?
Thanks.

I would not come out in a Facebook post that's like breaking up with someone through a text. It may be harder, but it's better to do it face to face and only when you feel you are ready.

Honestly, if you're the outcast of the group you might want to find a new group of friends. Nobody should be left out by their friends. Especially since you have what you described as b*tchy friends. They definitely will not react well. Also, unless you find someone you're willing to come out for, I wouldn't come out yet. Though I don't have much experience with this at all - this is just what I'm planning to do, myself.

I'm still debating that too, I've come out to my parents and siblings, but my friends I'm not so sure about, I'm not exactly popular so I can't really afford to lose any, I won't and I can't go back to being all alone. But if I did it would be a lot easier to date and I would probably feel a lot better about myself, but that me, everyone is different and if you feel ready then you are ready and if you get bs then ignore it they don't know you or your life
