Don't. If you're lucky, the best outcome is that you'll go back into the closet before something bad happens.

I haven't come out yet to my family but I plan to and I've been thinking of the best way to do it. I did come out to my mom as bi about a year ago and I just told her that I've had a crush on a boy before and I have a crush on a boy rn and I then ran to by room and let her think about it.

first its important to remember there is no pressure to come out. it is perfectly okay to stay in the closet, and in some situations you might need to. make sure you can trust the person/people you are coming out to. if you aren't 100% sure they would be supportive, i suggest you dont do it. secondly, make sure you have a plan in case things go sour and you can support yourself financially. good luck

what i did was just dropped small hints about my sexuality. i tried to not make it a big thing because i found it to be awkward and i’d rather not make it seem worse than it was. but please make sure you’re coming out in a safe environment!
