Heellllooo 
Just wondered how you all felt about this because obviously it's something that differs from person to person,
Buttttttt,
When you realised you were gay/bi/trans, how did you feel, and how long did it take for you to fully accept yourself?
Just curious

Well, when I first found out I was bi, I denied it. I tried to make myself exlusively like girls. Then i accepted it. Then I denied it and said I was straight. Then I said I was a lesbian. Then I was bi-curious. Then I was a lesbian. Then I was bi and I cried my eyes out because I didnt want to be a 'slut' or 'unsure' or 'a fake'... I still say I'm gay sometimes.
But I'm slowly coming to terms with my bi-sexuality

I was actually quite accepting of myself (cause I'm just that much of a babe... jk xD). I was like... I'm gay, good times, now let's act REALLY camp and see how many people can figure out I'm gay for the next year.
And I did that for a whole year before coming out xD
All the world's a stage, but I'm no player.

Heather; I went through a similar thing, except I was desperate to be straight, not gay but you love who you love no one can change that so it's better to embrace it
Stewart; LOL sounds like a pretty good way to go about being gay!

When i first found out i was in like sixth or seventh grade and i used to hear my mom put down gay people so like most sixh/seventh grades i believed that it was unnatural and i hated myself for a long time i did everything i could to try and "turn straight" i didnt start to accept it until eighth grade and the summer before my freshman year in highschool is when i fully accepted myself. Im a sophomore now and recently came out to my two best friends.

I'm still on that road. It's taking me a while quite honestly.

I think it's completely normal to be scared and worried about it. Seriously though, only come out when your ready, coz once it's out there, you can't change that.
Do youse think they're was/is something that made/will make you accept yourself completely?

Im still trying to deny it, but I cant for much longer 
My family will hate me thats what really scares me.

I never actually denied myself. I always thought liking girls was normal. So I guess I accepted myself since the beginning

I've always supported gays ever since I was little. But it took me a good year or two of hating myself it wasnt until this year that I thought "Fuck it! I'm my own person and I'll love who I wanna love" and then I got over it!
just give me a reason/just a little bit's enough/just a second, we're not broken/just bent we can learn to love again/oh, it's in the stars/it's been written in the scars on our hearts/we're not broken/just bent we can learn to love again.

When I first actually realised I had the idea that if I ignore it it'd go away. 2 years later I came out for the first time
I'm a Loiner, apparently...

I've never been worried, or better I've been worried only on the first moments, when I thought I was a failure for being a lesbian, and stuff like that, but I accepted myself rather quickly, and yesterday I told my deskmate and I wasn't shaking or anything! \m/(>.<)\m/

Shontai, I'm exactly the same as you. Never had a problem with gays, but didn't wanna be one myself. Never mind lmao, some things you can't choose so it's better to deal with it

Well when i was very little like 8 or 9 I had a hard time figuring out what was wrong with me cause I had these feelings for girls and I was raised to where being gay was a straight ticket to hell, so I was scared and I thought I was a guy that just hadn't formed yet. Later on in my child hood I realized I was gay but didn't admit it, when I started going to cousiling I finally accepted the fact that I was, I had a hard time with it but I told my mom and she still treats me the same. I got a girl friend that made me feel like me being a girl wasn't good enough she cheated on me with two guys then she left me for a guy, when all of that was happening I did some bad things to myself. I am completley happen with who I am now I found my true self and I'm looking for someone to be in my life that makes me feel speacial. Not a very good story I guess but I was 17 before I accepted it all the way

I think all of us need to go through the whole confusion thing and that, it helps us to realise who we are.
And I think a lot of us go though hurt from ourselves and other people whilst we're trying to deal with everything. But I'm the long run it makes us stronger
As for your ex girlfriend, she don't sound like she's worth your time at all

Rianna- I couldn't agree more!
When I first noticed I liked girls when I was 13, I wouldn't believe it, then I thought I was gay and I was terrified- my father is homophobic. Then I was really confused when I was attracted to my first boyfriend. It took me two years to accept that I was bi. I didn't even consider being bi as an option at first, but when I realized that is what I am, I gave hints to all my friends. It was about a year of that before I came out to some friends- they thought they knew before I did

it took a while.
i took longer to accept me than everyone else did.
it took many view of various sites and a knot on a string that i still hold special to me now, but i made it.
this i consider that to be my phase of being 'questioning'
it will be alright in the end, and if it's not alright, it's not the end yet.

I could accept myself fully when I realized what how I felt was and had a name for it. That took long, because I thought the only options were asexual, bisexual, straight and lesbian. But then I found out about pansexuality, and realized, that it was exactly who I am and what I have always been .
