Too many close calls *gulp*
Ok so today my school had track and field day...so anyways, I hung out with this group (I'm not close friends with all, just some) and k we were really really hyper...and these two girls and I started talking about gay/lesbian/bi. my friends were cool about the topic. But then, I was laughing and through my laughter, I accidently slipped "Yeah well I'm practically lesbian and bi!" Then I had to laugh it off and pretend I was kidding. Dammit. there's been a couple other close calls too... *shudders*

hmm.
Could it be that you kind of want to be "caught"? This is just me, but I'm closeted, and I've never had close calls like yours except one time when, I'm embarassed to admit, I was trying to fake an accidental slip to a friend of mine so she would be the one to bring up the subject - I was trying to come out to her, but I was too scared. I thought it would be easier if she were to ask me, so I could just say yes. I may be completely wrong, but it seems to me like you're either so extremely comfortable with the idea of other people knowing about your sexuality that you're just forgetting to stay closeted, or you're kind of hoping that some people will get the right idea without you having to say anything outright. Maybe something to think about?
yeah i gotta admit...sometime
yeah i gotta admit...sometimes I feel like i wanna be caught...not sure about that but thanx for the advice. :)
When I was closeted, I ended
When I was closeted, I ended up slipping a fair amount too. It's part of just wanting to have what you're accepting be accepted by others, to bring what thoughts are in your head out into the open, especially ones you are squashing. It can be fun, a bit of a game... Don't worry. Coming out isn't as scary as it seems from the closet.
Are you hanging on to something useless just because you think it's beautiful?
