Sorry...

I've been so busy recently, I just haven't had a chance to come on here!
So, my last post was kinda vague. I told Jess. On Christmas Day. Over Facebook. Yeah.
I was so scared, but an appropriate point to talk about it came up. She was talking about this guy she fancies (he's my ex, so she knew I could give advice - and no, I don't mind her going out with my ex :) ), then she asked me how my love life was going. I just thought... it's now or never. So I did it! And she was great about it. She told me I was brave for being true to myself, and actually, a few weeks ago, admitted she thought she might be bi too. I now don't feel as alone in this :D
I've also come out to 3 more people since. First was another friend who I haven't mentioned before, Ella. As she went off to college whilst I went to 6th form, we don't often get a chance to speak to each other, but we got into a deep chat and I told her that I was bi and that I'd been worried about how people would react to the news. She was actually quite shocked by the fact that I thought she would possibly judge me for my sexuality, which actually reassured me a lot.
Second was Chloe. She was really supportive, and said how it doesn't change anything and never will. I haven't told her that I like her though. I'm still worried that would change things. I was actually quite hoping that when I came out to her, she'd admit that she liked me, and I was actually kinda disappointed when she didn't. I know that's kinda selfish, I can't expect her to like girls just for me, but you know, it still hurt a bit :/ But we're still just as close :)
Third was Olivia. All she said was "cool". I wasn't sure how to take that at first - I guessed that either it didn't bother her at all, it bothered her a lot but she didn't want to say because we're friends, or it was a bit of a shock and she didn't know how to react. I think it may have been the last one, because she didn't seem quite herself at first, but it wasn't long before she was back to her normal self and we're exactly the same around each other as we were before.
That was something I was really worried about after coming out to each person, that even though they'd said they were fine with it, they'd act differently around me, but they were fine, they were exactly the same as before. I feel far more comfortable about being bi. :)
I'm not planning on telling Evie just yet - she's in my Theatre class, and we're working on our practical exam piece, which is quite physical and involves quite heavy contact between all of us. Although I think she'll be fine with it, I don't want to risk her not feeling comfortable having contact with me, which could potentially wreck our piece, and therefore our grades. Our exam's on 8th April, so I plan to tell her after that :)
I want to tell Emily too, but as me and Chloe are still acting exactly the same around each other as before, I'm worried that she'll actually seriously think we're in a relationship, and although that's what I want, I can see it's not what Chloe wants, and I don't want rumours and shizzle spread about her. I know Emily wouldn't say anything, but if anything accidently got out... I just don't want it to happen. So that makes it hard.
Actually... after telling Chloe and having no reaction from her that she might possibly like me back, I tried to concentrate on possible other people to like. It's been only guys, as there's a lack of lesbian and bi girls in our 6th form, and I don't fancy Jess (and even if I did, she likes my ex, so it'd be irrelevant :L). Unfortunately, it's been unsuccessful - there's just no one I like as much as Chloe :( However, there is a new guy moving here (and he's joining my French class!) so I'm hoping we'll get on well :)
That's all now peoples! xD
