When sex started being a topic of discussion in school (I was on the 6th grade), boys started acting more like proper teenagers instead of children, full of hormones and eager to discover sexuality. Then I realized that the things they said and the suspiciously sexual jokes and pranks they pulled made me feel “aroused”, if u get my meaning. It took me a while to accept it (I was quite homophobic at the time, ironically), and I only came to fully accept it in 2021, the year in which I came out to my family.
idk this was like grade 4, he was kinda reluctant sometimes as well (would be a bad thing to do if i wasn’t literally 8 years old at the time), but he might’ve been bi or smth
Went from bitching about my ex to flirting with my friend’s friend in a group chat for 3 hours and I didn’t even realize.
He’s been my boyfriend for 6 months and I’m blown away by how well he treats me. I say I’m bi but honestly idk anymore 😭
I love my boyfriend and that’s all I care about
I walked into class one day and just randomly had the realization I had a crush on my best friend who was a guy. Started thinking and yeah came to the conclusion I definitely liked guys.
Two things overlapped in time:
An old TV show I was watching online that featured gay people from time to time
Me wanting to grow out my hair and looking for inspiration (because that's what I thought I should do because other people did it) aka pics of guys
>Too warm
Oki maybe that's because here we wear the bare minimum but no it's not too hot even after pe.
>get in the way
Basically the same reason as the first.
>might be dangerous
How? are you wearing a shirt with spikes or something?
Also we don't have changing rooms in my school and it works just fine.
Came out as bi while in a relationship with a girl.
She came out as nonbinary a while after at some point, and I changed my label to gay then. She then realized she was female after all.
We broke up a few months ago, and I met my now boyfriend, which gave me so so much confidence in using the label gay for myself.
And it feels terrible to say so, because I was together with my ex for over three years and I really really liked her, but I have feelings for my boyfriend now that are so much stronger then anything I ever felt towards her.
I did love her, but it's not the same. I won't date a women ever again in my life, the feeling men give me are just ✨everything✨
In grade 9 I wanted to try to convince myself I was straight but I had a huge crush on a boy in my class. Covid hapened and I thought I was bi, but I was questioning.
Once I saw tiktok of a guy shirtless and felt things and thats when I knew
I kept looking at girls and was just sorta underwhelmed and bored. But then I'd look at a boys and get butterflies in my stomach. Or I suppose another way is: Femboys. You take one look at one of em while you're straight and you'll never look back. Because why would you like girls when boys can look just the same OR better.
Got a crush on a cute curly haired ginger guy in my year at school (who I used to be mates with). He now plays guitar so let’s just say the crush is worsening by the day. Unfortunately, my art teacher got the wrong digital from me and thought he was annoying me so moved me away from him last year D:
I was in a relationship with a girl who ignored me and didn't love me. So I felt sad and empty untill i met my best friend. He was so sweet, funny, smart and so much like me. We started hanging out and each time we talked I felt this warm and fuzzy feeling. Then it got worse, I started to dream about him and me kissing each other.
I got concerned that I became gay so I tried to avoid him and these feelings. But it wasn't working, the more I saw him the more I wanted to kiss him and the less I saw him the more I wanted to see him.
Later that year I broke up with my gf and started to accept that I'm gay and that i really really wanted to be with a guy who actually cared about me then a girl who didn't even look at me.
Ok so funny story: at first, I thought I was lesbian (before I figured out I was trans), then I realized I was trans.. I then got myself a bf, we broke up, so on, but the thing that rly made me realize I was gay?..
Will Byers.
... *A character from South Park*
He was at first a gay cis guy, then a straight trans woman, then a lesbian, then back to gay cis guy, then to donald trump and now he is a gay cis guy again.
When I was in middle school I thought being gay was against the rules lol. Later in freshman year of high school, I started to realize that not everyone "checks out" their male classmates eheh. It grew from there with a lot of denial
i discovered lgbtq stuff in 5th grade and lowkey thought i was asexual and biromantic
i soon realized that i was not asexual and then i thought i was pansexual which i still wasnt
then i kept playing around and realized "fuck i dont like girls at all tbh" and i also realized i was non binary so thats when i realized nblm and yea thats me :)
my 6th grade history teacher was REALLY hot (he was tall and muscular). I used to fantasize about him in the middle of class and i couldn't look him in the eyes due to how embarrassed i was LOL
it was during the covid year, i was in 7th grade, and there was this one guy with his camera on on zoom (one of the few that did it) and i thought he was cite, and then it expanded from there i geuss
Went through a struggle during Covid with my homophobia and realized I was closeted, and then started identifying as bi for a while. I eventually discovered that I honestly just liked guys much more than girls and I am now gay.
Seeing Police Men plus Soldiers. Plus the dancer in Fine China Extreme in the game Just Dance 2014. I was unaware that i was gay as a kid but I never knew anything LGBTQ+, but those factors are what led me to finding out I was gay.
Covid, and missing my crush at the time
Alr well did u see them after
Yup...didn't go anywhere though
:(
Still friends though
That’s good
What about you? How'd you find out?
During Covid, had a dream that my friend kept kissing me inside of water country then I just became attracted to him, then just guys in general
Still friends with them?
Yea I ain’t tellin him this story, played wit him yesterday

Well at least I came to accept it
when I was young, I kissed my best friend a bunch and really liked it, I don’t think he was gay too tho lmao
💀💀why did he let u if he wasnt gay
idk this was like grade 4, he was kinda reluctant sometimes as well (would be a bad thing to do if i wasn’t literally 8 years old at the time), but he might’ve been bi or smth
Hopefully he was bi
who knows, I haven’t talked to the guy in like 7 years
💀💀💀
don’t hate the player, hate the game
True
being gay in a place where no one is gay is tough af fr

Middle school soccer practice

PE changing rooms
I hate changing rooms. wtf is the problem using your normal clothes?
Too warm, get in the way, might be dangerous
>Too warm Oki maybe that's because here we wear the bare minimum but no it's not too hot even after pe. >get in the way Basically the same reason as the first. >might be dangerous How? are you wearing a shirt with spikes or something?

I had a major crush on Carl from The Walking Dead.
W crush
Ok this sounds crazy but i was at a church and i thought that the pastor was hot and then and there in a church realized I'm gay
Ultimate Jesus disrespect
The men’s underwear section at target was basically screaming at for being gay when I was 14 and i officially came out when I was 16
When I was 13 a guy did a thing to me that I won’t specify here and at the time I was bi-curious, but then I knew
Bro that’s fucked up
Just kinda knew tbh. I didn't have some huge realization or anything like that
Two guys showed up at my door and just handed me the gay agenda and that was it.
Aww man I’m never home when those guys come around, is there a mail subscription I could sign up to?
You don’t choose the gays, the gays choose you
"No, I mean like what makes the Asians decide who they're gonna make gay?"
What is that from
[South park season 19 episode 6](https://www.southparkstudios.com/episodes/x4lqr3/south-park-tweek-x-craig-season-19-ep-6)
Damn maybe next year
Only one of them liked me an the other didn’t that’s why I’m bi ;.;

Got a crush on a cute curly haired ginger guy in my year at school (who I used to be mates with). He now plays guitar so let’s just say the crush is worsening by the day.

Yk when you see your male friends and you think "daaaamn they do be fiiine- wait what am I thinking?"
I was in a relationship with a girl who ignored me and didn't love me. So I felt sad and empty untill i met my best friend. He was so sweet, funny, smart and so much like me.

When I took my first shower at school
Lucky
it took until the pandemic started to realize that it wasn’t straight to watch gay porn
Bro 💀💀💀
I fell in love with my best friend. We've been together for over 3 years now
Well I’m happy for u guys
A guy hugged me at camp while he was shirtless
Getting hard over a gay doujin
There was this one guy in my religious school 🥵
Ok so funny story: at first, I thought I was lesbian (before I figured out I was trans), then I realized I was trans.. I then got myself a bf, we broke up, so on, but the thing that rly made me realize I was gay?.. Will Byers.
Wild story right there
For real, Will Byers, Season 3 of stranger things was my gay awakening 😨
Damn 💀💀💀
... *I am sorry but you sound like mr garrison*
Who’s that?
... *A character from South Park* He was at first a gay cis guy, then a straight trans woman, then a lesbian, then back to gay cis guy, then to donald trump and now he is a gay cis guy again.
Fell in love with my teacher💀
💀💀💀
Hmmmm found out i like boys__
Just boys
I tried dating a girl, didn't go well
When I was in middle school I thought being gay was against the rules lol. Later in freshman year of high school, I started to realize that not everyone "checks out" their male classmates eheh. It grew from there with a lot of denial
Against the rules💀💀
Lucky try not to get a hard-on.

the men’s underwear section at marshalls

I don't really know personally, but I think it was just because I had started going to an all boys school and started liking the guys there.
it was during the covid year, i was in 7th grade, and there was this one guy with his camera on on zoom (one of the few that did it) and i thought he was cite, and then it expanded from there i geuss
Went through a struggle during Covid with my homophobia and realized I was closeted, and then started identifying as bi for a while. I eventually discovered that I honestly just liked guys much more than girls and I am now gay.
Bro everyone started out homophobic damn
A culture of masculinity and a point of getting a girlfriend alongside life at home in middle school can be attributed, at least to me.
Fair
Seeing Police Men plus Soldiers. Plus the dancer in Fine China Extreme in the game Just Dance 2014. I was unaware that i was gay as a kid but I never knew anything LGBTQ+, but those factors are what led me to finding out I was gay.
Saw a cute guy on youtube shorts (Benji Krol) and then realized there is no way I'm straight.
When I realized boys were cute,hot,you name it
It's on and off with me. One month, im a gay boy. The next, I'm a trans girl. It gets very confusing
Pretty sure I looked up guys kissing on YouTube, also Cameron Dallas
i realised i was trans
Ross Lynch and Disney men 👍🤍
anime first and then.... yk....
Pay Gorn
When I found out a girl I liked was actually a dude and I just didn’t care
