I know I've already told you guys I'm bi, and that hasn't changed, but I wanted to catch you guys up on how my coming out process has progressed.

When I came out on here, most of my friends knew when I did that, considering Sarah followed me on here and on tumblr (where I also came out). From then, it's been a process of me coming out to people in real life.

In school, it's not hard, considering a lot of people at my school are pretty accepting.

I mean, it's not like I come out to everyone whenever I meet them, but if it comes up in conversation, I tell them.

Along the way, a couple of people came out to me. One of these people was Auburn, who I talked about in an earlier part, maybe the one where I came out on here, who came out as pan to me at some point.

Another one of these people was a friend of mine, who's on here, but I don't know if she's okay with me putting her real name on here, and we come out to each other a little while ago.

I had asked her if she was bi, and she said yes. I said I was bi, and we continued talking about.

She's come out to her mom and brother, I think, and I don't know about her dad.

And I guess that's one of the things I'm scared to do.

I haven't come out to my parents yet and I'm kind of apprehensive to do so.

I mean, I don't think they would react badly, but it's still kind of nerve-wracking to think about.

The past few months, I've been going on the tumblr tag for coming out every once in a while and, even though most of the stories are positive, I'm still worried that my parents will react badly or not be accepting.

Anyway, over the past couple of months I've been thinking about being bi and I've figured out that I have a preference for girls. 

I've also been thinking about my romantic orientation and I don't really know about what it is yet.

So, thanks for reading, I know it was a bit weird and all over the place.

Good Night and Good Dreams
