Ways to coming out

29/8/2016

0 Comments

 
Let's be real, coming out is hard.
However there are some things to make thinks a little easier for you.
​
  • Don't tell everyone all at once..
    Okay so a big coming out party or event is awesome and go for it if that is what you wish to do however I found it much harder doing it on my own so taking aside a close friend or someone who has also come out could be helpful to support you.


  • Write a letter..
    You don't have to write a letter a send it out to everyone unless that's what you want. Just sit down and start writing what you want to say when you tell people. this doesn't have to be word for word a speech you're gonna tell them this could just be a few notes so you don't miss stuff out cause we all know it happens constantly so let's avoid that!


  • If you don't want a label dont use them
    This one is always slightly difficult coming out as you can't go to someone and say "hey I'm ..." however you can tell people that you'd prefer not to be labelled as straight 


  • Bake a cake
    Gay cake is the best cake 


  • You don't have to make a big deal of i!
    I personally came out to my dad in the middle of ASDA so really you don't need to make a big deal of it. sometimes bringing it up in conversation instead of making an announcement of it is a million times easier. If you would prefer to make a deal of it then do it! 

These are all just things I found that make coming out a million times easier but I cant guarantee they will work for everyone so stretch them to fit your personal coming out.. Good luck!!
