Straddlers on Coming Out 11 years, 10 months ago
So i am really glad that there is a group for straddlers coming out or plan on coming out. Currently I’m not out. But i have told one person i was gay, shes my college professor. I knew she was gay from day one when i walked into class(Shes gorgeous) and I would always sit in class wondering who to talk to. So one day i finally decided that i…[Read more]

I think it’s perfectly okay as long as it stays within the realm of fantasy. And actually, professor crushes can often be really good motivators to do extra-well in that class, as I learned my freshman year. The professor I had a crush on then is now writing recommendation letters for me for grad school. I doubt that would be the case if I had…[Read more]

I agree with the motivation thing. I worked 10x harder this semester to get good grades, especially that class. She is someone to talk to and she always offers to me if i need anything(advice wise) to email her and keep in touch. So i am grateful to have her for advice. It’s a hard adjustment. But it’s getting better. :)

Are there any ladies in here who came out or are coming out a little later (late 20s/30s)? All the local support groups I’m aware of are for teenagers and college age women so I’m trying the online route for support. I’ve come out to a few local people who identify as gay, lesbian, or genderqueer and I’ve been really disappointed by the fact…[Read more]

I would like some advice on coming out to my roommate. I have no clue whether she’s homophobic or not. She’s pretty religious, and I think probably conservative (we haven’t really talked politics). I’ve brought up gay things/people before and she literally had no reaction, so I don’t know if that means she doesn’t care or didn’t want to get into…[Read more]

Thanks for the advice!

I agree that you should test the waters with gay-related topics, and you never know – she might surprise you. Young fundamentalists are increasingly likely to disagree with their churches on gay rights, especially ones who actually know gay people. I knew plenty of people in high school who were lock-step with what their pastor or church believed…[Read more]

So, Im about to go to my university’s GLBTQA student org meeting, which is a first for me. So far Im out to pretty much no one, so this is a rather large step… and Im sorta freaking out >< It's no big deal, right? So why cant I remember that, lol. Sigh
-
How did it go? I remember feeling the exact same way last year when I went to my school’s LGBT group.
-
It went really well, better than I was hoping. Walking in the door was scary as shit, lol. So many people! But everyone was friendly, and that was awesome. Something to go to again, for sure. :)
-
Great! I’m glad it was a good experience. I felt like I basically had “gay” tattooed to my forehead and had to keep telling myself that no one there cared whether I was gay or straight or whatever. It probably didn’t help that I hadn’t come out to anybody yet.
-
Yeah, there was that too. But then I thought about how oblivious I was about the group before I went looking for it, so that made things a bit better. Im in no shape to come out to friends/family at the moment… need to finish figuring myself out first, lol
-
-
That’s awesome that it went well! I was going to say that LGBTQA groups in college usually have at least a few straight ally members so don’t worry that you’re announcing your sexuality in any way.
