This question is only for the LGBTQ+ community. How did you guys/girls come out to your family?

I just kind of mentioned to my mom that I was bi but I’m neither out to nor hiding it from the rest of my family.
Both of my kids are out, and they handled it similarly. My daughter struggled with finding the right time to tell me and ended up just blurting it out. My son came out to me over dinner while we were on vacation.

I never sat them down and told them, I just never hid it either.

They knew before I did. They used to make little comments about me liking women (I like men and women) until I responded, “Yeah, probably.” They stopped talking and I don’t tell them about anything.

My parents are both deceased and I never told them when they were alive. My father probably never had any idea, but I think my mother might have suspected.
Those were different times. My niece is out, and some years ago she brought her then-girlfriend (now wife of 10 years) to a family party. She did tell my sister (her mother), who told her that she just wanted her to be happy.
I’m still not out in my life offline, as I’m married to a woman and most people think I’m straight (I’m bisexual).

I haven’t.. they still think I’m thier little shy innocent heterosexual virgin

I never really told them, they just kinda knew somehow?

I never came out. My hometown was in the Bible Belt, and no one would understand. Back then, it was best to keep these things quiet. I still do, but my family is gone by now. Myself, I've felt no ill effects from it and see no need to announce it. Some people do feel the need. Whatever works for you.

I am never planning to come out to them. They'd both react horribly :).

My mum found my HRT pills and medical letters, she asked me to explain myself, so I did.

I just came out and said Mom and Dad I'm gay and a sissy boy
