Was A Goal, Now An Experience.

I always kept the fact that I was bi a secret because of certain experiences in high school. I had no friends for 5 years, because no one wanted to associate themself with someone they heard about through rumours only. I barely spoke, though I was fine in academics, and tried to mind my own business most of the time; though that school had such a bitchy and toxic atmosphere that even the quietest kid would get picked on...

I spoke to a friend last night, and things turned out really unexpected. I ended up telling her my life story, because she told me honestly that she sensed I had been through a lot of pain and that she wanted to help me. So I told her what had happened to me, and I also ended up telling her that I am bisexual. It was quite unnerving because I didn't know how she was going to react - we had only been friends for a few months, but thankfully she told me that she didn't care if I was bi or not, and proceeded to listen and support me while I told her the rest of my story.

I'm somewhat relieved that there really are accepting people around me; I suppose I just didn't see them because I always had my head down. I don't know if I ever will come out to my parents, though I am not going to worry about that for a long time. Right now I'm just happy to have taken a weight off of me that has been there for a while now. Everything has become so much easier.
