Coming out is always a big decision and one that’s yours to make. There are some things to keep in mind:

You can get clues about how accepting and open-minded the person you’re planning to come out to will be. Bring up LGBTQ+ issues and assess how people respond, use examples to see how they feel about the marriage of LGBTQ+ people.
Even when they respond positively, there’s no guarantee of a positive reaction.
Different people are ready to come out at different times of their lives. You can be sure about wanting to be open about it, but always keep safety in mind and if there are some risks take extra care and decide whether it’s better to come out or not.
Assess if it’s worth it to come out or if it will make life easier, weighing all the possible situations.
