Hey LGBTQ+ pandas, I can't come out as bi to my grandparents. (who I am very close to) I've been feeling kind of sad about this for the past few days. Please post your coming out stories or reassurance. Thanks pandas!!! π³οΈβππ³οΈβππ³οΈβππ³οΈβππ³οΈβππ³οΈβππ³οΈβππ³οΈβππ³οΈβππ³οΈβππ³οΈβππ³οΈβππ³οΈβππ³οΈβππ³οΈβππ³οΈβππ³οΈβππ³οΈβππ³οΈβππ³οΈβππ³οΈβπ

I'm not sure if you wanted me to post advice or a coming out story, so I'll do a little bit of both
I can't really give specific advice because I don't know the situation you are in, like why can't you come out and stuff. My general advice would be to find someone/people who you can come out to and be comfortable with. Also just because you are not out to them doesn't mean you can't be yourself for the most part around them.
When I came out to my parents it was pretty bland, I wrote a note and then they asked me like what it means, and how long I had known. But since today is omnisexual awareness day I am planning on coming out to my friends too, ill tell you how it goes

Hello! I can feel your pain. I am lesbian and out to my mom(she isnβt against or for the LGBTQIA+ community, sheβs fairly neutral). Iβm not out to my dad or any of my extended family though, and Iβm a bit scared. I think I should start with my dad because Iβm not 100% sure of my sexuality. Iβm still youngish(according to my parents), and I liked boys in the past so Iβm scared that my dad will invalidate me.
BUT me and my dad are very close, and heβs a kind person. I donβt think heβll stop loving me if I tell him that Iβm gay. What Iβve been doing so far is implying and hinting at my sexuality, so Iβm pretty sure he already knows. Iβm sure your grandparents wonβt stop loving you either. But you donβt have to come out to your grandparents, and not coming out doesnβt make you any less valid.
Lots of
