I can't tell stories to save my life, so I'm sorry in advance. My whole life I was in Catholic school, but my family wasn't really, I guess, practicing. However you want to say it. I was okay if wasn't straight and I knew I wasn't, but one day, at school and in front of everyone, I just started to cry. I ran to the bathroom. I didn't know at the time that I was pansexual.

Around summertime last year, I told my friend since preschool. He turned red and was quite for a long time. I thought I fucked up, but he mumbled 'I think I'm bi.' In the middle of a public pool here we are coming out to each other. The only other thing I remember from that day was that some little kid kept splashing me and I was not in the best mood.

At the beginning of this school year I told a lot of people. The only I want to tell you about is my friend, Lyssa. She always said REALLY homophobic things. I was terrified. I told her I liked girls and boys and anyone in between. And that if she didn't want to talk to me it was ok. She ended up still talking to me but still saying really homophobic stuff and I'm still kinda scared.
