Literally the only difference I see in her personality is that she's happier
And SOOO confident. It rubs off honestly
@@iyansmit249 thats nice
Period!
Yes
@Tha Whisperer ..........what????
You may think that this is a “boring” coming out story, but this is one of the most beautiful coming out stories.
This was exactly my thought ❤️
@@jessicabozak5405 hey
I agree so wonderful
The dream of every one out of the lgtbq+ community
Agree 150%🥰❤
This is iconic. We need to stop acting like people coming out NEEDS to be a huge deal. Of course its a thing to be celebrated, but no one HAS TO make a massive deal out of it. ❤️
Yeah, that's what i think, legit, the way i came out i was just like, 'hey dudes im bi' and they just said cool and that was it 😂
@@mylifeismadness5465 and i feel awful for them and my heart FULLY goes out to them. My heart also goes out to the people who feel pressured to MAKE it a big deal
Exactly, nobody makes a huge deal if you are straight 😂
@@mylifeismadness5465 indeed though, but I feel like most people would want it to be kinda subtle honestly idk though 🤷♀️🤷♀️
aeee
I came out to my mom like “I’m bisexual” and she looked me dead in the eyes and went “okay, did you want some pizza, I’m ordering” like okay
Well thats lucky
that would be my mom’s response too lol
Heck yeah I want pizza
I had an accidental coming out:
My family wanting to know what pan is-
I had to google it for them because I didn’t want to bother explaining because they might think something is sus…
I was right…they now think I’m Miley Cyrus
*hides in pantry*
When I told my parents they told me they already knew💀
Rachel's coming out story: She thought she was straight until one day she was scrolling through Tik Tok and realized she wasn't. Lol
Don’t we all?😌
Same honestly though
Same as many 😂 tt is making everyone realise they are gay
yes
I also realized I'm super gay from tiktok
Rachel: You guys are just really nosy.
Me: she’s not wrong.
ahaha same
I mean she isn’t SKDGJGJ
Absolutely
Is it weird that the number of likes on this comment is 6 6 6...
I read this as she said it-
“Kelly, I’m gay”
“Cool, what are you gonna do about it”
“Idk, be gay”
“Cool”
I love that so much 😂
This is so amazing 😂
Oh so _thats_ what she said!! I listened back and still couldn't figure it out. Thank u kind stranger on the tube. Now I don't need to think about that anymore. 😆
Who’s Kelly?
@@lylabean6436 Kelly is one of her friends, I think she's been friends with her since high school
The world needs more mundane coming out storys. Every coming out story needs to be mundane. Or rather, not exist. We shouldnt have to tell everyone because people should just not assume that u are straight.
It is sad that THAT just isn't a thing yet... Reminds me how much we still need to grow.
I mean I didn't have to come out and say "soooooo I'm straight"...... this world is odd.
🥺
@@momma2thewilds88 for real though! Lol
I think the reason there are coming out stories is because a lot of the world is still anti lgbtq+.. People are still forced into closets due to fear of death, banishment, and beatings.. And coming out stories allow those people that live in fear know that what they feel isnt odd or worrisome. That its normal to feel a certain way. But.. To each is own.. And pray for those that cannot come out.. And love those that do.. Thats all we can do.
The only thing I noticed that was different after That Relationship ended (but before we even knew that) was that she was so much happier.
She probably felt a metaphorical weight lift off her shoulders once That Relationship ended
Can we praise Colleen that when she asked Rachel Colleen didn’t assume men! WE STANNN
That was really cool of her.
That was so great
Protect the ballingers!
Your cat looks like my cat
ikr I wish my family was like that
bruh colleen literally being the most amazing accepting person on this planet we all want someone to ask us that question
Ikr if someone could just ask me that I'd just like that 'come out'
Colleen: the next person you date man or woman?
Rachel: woman
Colleen: okay
Best coming out ever!
I told my aunt I was gay she said, "ok, I'm a Virgo" 🖤
HELP OSNSGAUWBGA
NOOOO-
PLSS💀✋🏻✋🏻
STOP THATS THE BEST WHAHHA
PLS UR AUNT IS ME LMFAOO
WHO JUST DROPPED EVERYTHING TO WATCH 😭❤
i was about to go asleep😭
Meeeee
@@soupman907 SAME AHAHHA
im supposed to be doing homework but this is more important !
@@bugbro6399 I agree
Rachel: I’m gay.
Rachel’s friend: what are you gonna do about it?
Rachel: I dunno just be gay?
*Iconic*
“Screw you. No. I’m more straight now” is the greatest moment of this video
I just watched colleen video about her second pregnancy and now watching this one
Same lol
Same
Now shes having twins!
SHES HAVING TWINS!
@@itzchloeann2016 yep!!!
TikTok truly made a lot of people question their sexuality during quarantine lol
Hi. Me.
Same with mine 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
@China Trujillo what’s sad?
That's interesting. How did Til Tok do that? I don't know much about it ...
We love a casual queer, a secret sapphic, a subtle sapphic, a low-key lesbian, a liberated gay, but jokes aside, I’m so happy that your coming out was a good experience, I hope you have a good day and stay awesome possums!

@@thewriter2634 My main problem with homophobes is....
1) Are you going around posting this everywhere? What are you trying to accomplish? Don't like gays--don't seek out their vlogs! Go watch something else.
2) "... *justify it* ..."? Nobody's sexuality is being "justified", it just *is* . Why do you have a problem with it? Why do you care who people you don't even know are attracted to or fall in love with?
3) How do *you* "try and justify" your antipathy toward LGB people? I'll bet I could come up with arguments comparing *your* reasons to things that are universally disapproved of...like hate, depriving people of their right to liberty and the pursuit of happiness, etc.
@@thewriter2634 I could say the same about a heterosexual relationship
If boring means being accepting of someone’s sexuality, then I hope everyone’s Coming Out is boring as well lol
Edit: yes, I’m a Louie lol
are you a louie? I’m saying that because I noticed your rainbow smiley face pfp
Oh if only my coming out were “boring” then 😸
@@davidhorthip8819 I was wondering the same thing
@@davidhorthip8819 sameeee
I like your profile picture :)
when i came out to my best friend this was the conversation
“hey i don’t want this to be weird but i’m gay”
“ok”
“wdym ok?”
“was i supposed to have a better reaction?”
“sort of”
“kk one sec, OMG I HAD NO IDEA WHAT THATS AMAZING”
Please this is me- ima be like "chill, what did we get from Mr. Goerge today"
I love your best friend
THAT'S SMTH I'VE DONE AND WILL CONTINUE TO DO
I honestly get annoyed by people telling celebrities/influencers they are “gay” when they’ve never come out, or are constantly questioning their sexuality. People do this with Shawn Mendes and always call him gay, despite him saying he is straight. But even if he wasnt straight, it’s annoying to push a sexuality on someone.
Yes!! I’ve found the same thing with Taylor Swift. Like if she wanted to share that with the word, she would!
Or Harry Styles
@@casiesilverman Yes!! It seems that some people think they are entitled to that information because he’s a celebrity but he’s human first and deserves respect and privacy just like everybody else!!
It's a taught thing to NEED to label everything and if something isn't in a categorized box we nitpick and push and assume the hell out of it. SIIIIIGH. 🙄🙄
@@jaylynnmatthies6500 truth!!!
I actually find the "we all knew" comments rude. Makes me feel self-conscious like, I can't keep as good of a secret as I thought I could lol.
Plus, in cases like hers, I would think it’s a little embarrassing that someone might’ve realized that before you did. There was a guy in our high school, who has just recently, years later, come to accept that he’s gay. Though no one except his closest friends ever explicitly asked him (he always denied it, and apparently believed it himself), virtually everyone confidently assumed he was gay. Granted, my school was not a very accepting one, and his parents are extremely conservative and religious, so I understand the denial. But I can’t help but wonder how traumatizing that must have been to be the last person to reach that conclusion, even if the student body was unjustified in making that assumption.
My whole family knew I was gay Before I did. They said they already knew. I was like well why didn’t you tell me.
Except she wasn't keeping a secret at all because she didn't even know herself yet. I'm sad that she says she doesn'ts read comments So my thought is why bother leaving one?
@@jacquelinemaree9816 because they were probably like Rachel's family, they knew you needed to find out for yourself, And in your own time. I'm not going to say that I knew Rachel was gay, but, there were a couple of stereo typical signs that I had a thought that she might be. But there are also so many spectrums of the LGBTQ +s . My daughter is bisexual my niece is bisexual and I have another niece that is transgender. They all had to find out for themselves on their own time and I was just here when they needed to talk to someone. I'm glad her family is so understanding, and loving and excepting of her for who she is. A lot if not most people don't have that. Especially the family as a whole. I know mine isn't, Unfortunately.
I think that’s such a sensitive touchy topic. I had a best friend who just idek why but he made my gay senses ring so bad. I don’t have any problem with him doing or loving what/who he wants. I just want him to be happy and I loved him for who he was as a person.
Everyone else must have felt his gay presence too, though.... I guess, because he actually was kinda bullied for it by some stupid homophobic classmates. Plus he’s kinda religious (just so you have some background on why that’s probably a sensitive topic to him)
Anyway, years later I told my ex bf that I feel like he’s gay so he doesn’t worry because in his opinion men and women can’t just be friends. But he still was so concerned that he texted my friend and asked him directly without much introduction and that made him upset. Now he doesn’t want anything to do with me because my now ex- boyfriend wasn’t very empathetic towards him. And since my ex didn’t really tell my anything besides that they texted and he asked if he was gay, I assumed that he eased the question into the conversation but nope, he did not.
Not knowing what actually was said, I told my former friend that I think it is fine to ask him if he is gay so I guess he assumed that I thought the way my ex asked seemed good to me (which of course no bc I know that that’s not an easy topic for him). And basically now we’re not friends anymore bc of that.
Still don’t know how to feel about this whole story because it seems to be a big misunderstanding and I can’t change what my ex said. And since there is more history with me and said friend (let’s just say he once said something really unforgivable to me and I still forgave him after a few years eventhough he never apologised) I don’t feel like I should apologise for something I didn’t do bc to me it feels like my former friend can’t separate my ex and me. I wonder if I’m being stubborn bc of the fact that my former friend didn’t apologise when he had to or if it really isn’t my time to apologise bc this bs behaviour didn’t come from me but from my ex.
I hope this made sense 😬😅
Can someone give me more perspective and maybe some advice on this whole situation?
*The whole tiktok making everyone realize their true sexuality thing is a relatable phenomenon of which cannot and will not ever be explained.*
i think it has quite a bit to do with 2020 and we couldn't really DO anything else besides (scroll through tik tok lol and) discover ourselves :)
Yea like I always found boys gross since i was little but I never really thought about gay like I knew it was a thing but never had time to think and find myself cause i was always busy with school and life then lockdown hit and all my friends started to get boyfriend and I just did not feel like it then I went on tiktok and this lesbian was talking about her feeling and I realised I had similar feeling so I explored more then I went through months of say why me no I cant be gay no no but then I watched more gay tiktok and I started to expect myself for me. I think my family knows I like woman but I have not directly told them yea I do so yea I'm just going to turn up to there door one day with a girl and see how it goes ik they will be fine with it cause I have a gay uncle and there 100% fine with him.
Memes are what made me realize I’m ace 😂
I'm personally im a normal straight person; but if I were to watch gay tik tok all the time I too would probably think I'm gay. Maybe u guys are programming yourselves to belive ur gay. Just a hypothesis.
@@leanmeanmenace1744 Being queer isn’t something that can be influenced. It’s just who people are born. Trust me, if I could “change” I would... and I’ve tried.
This is literally the most beautiful coming out story ever, and I genuinely hope that’s gonna be how all these types of stories go in the future.
This is the chillest / least dramatic coming out story ever and I’m so happy for you Rachel. Beautiful human being inside and out. 💕💕💕
People trying to tell someone they are gay is horrible and when they finally coming out saying 'we knew' is so invalidating and rude.
Forreals
Totally Agree Kath,
@Taylor Parker it's invaliding cause coming out can be terrifying and a huge struggle to finally do it, there's alot of different emotions, each person has different feelings and reactions when coming out. When finally getting the courage to come out people going "We knew" is just ignoring the person strength, emotions and vulnerability of finally being able to come out. They are being dismissive instead of empathic. Also people don't have any right to tell anyone they are gay since some people may not be ready to look at that, some hate labels and we can't tell anyone what there sexuality the person has to figure it out themselves without the pressure from others rushing them on coming out.
I don't think your coming out story is "boring," but it's so beautiful that all the people you've surrounded yourself with are accepting. The fact that your coming out was "uneventful" is how it should be. We're all happy you're happy.
I told my mom i was gay and she goes "honey we all knew" i sat there like this
-_-
Same lol my brother came out last month and all I said was I always knew lol , still love you bro 😎
@@katelynnmcdougall9826 hey! pls be careful doing that, a lotta people feel invalidated and that their work hiding their identity was all for nothing :(
I haven’t to my parents I’m bi but I know my mum already knows cause she asked me any guys or girls on the scene and I just sat there like .-. Wa
LMAOO
At least they were accepting?
Instead of a coming out story, I'd rather hear more tea about the ex and the credit card, car debacle... He better have paid those charges off...
Same, I'm like oh you're gay? Awesome. Now tell me about what happened with matt and the credit card, did he pay you back? Did all his friends tell him what a douche he was as they learned of what he did? I want the tea on this please
Wait what’s this story about , a credit card ? Whered you get this info lol
@@morganh1071 she talked a bit bout it in one of her blogs about how he was still using her credit card for something
@@morganh1071 he used her credit card to buy groceries and gas ⛽️
This video and how simple Rachel realized she’s gay just shows how simple of a human being she is😂
I haven't watched Rachel in so long but this video made her fall in love with her personality all over again! So happy for her!
This is beautiful. I hope someday EVERYONE'S coming out story is like this.
me: *plans this nice clean coming out thing to tell my sister*
also me: "I'm not straight, wanna watch *John Mulaney* ?"
My husband and I are raising our son to know that if he were gay, he could come out in a way that isn't out of fear or obligation to announce his sexuality. It will never have to be a "thing" with us. Just as straight people get to do, he could walk into our home one day and say "oh I like this guy" and we'll be like "oh cool, invite him over sometime" and that be it.
I wish my parents were like you omg, you're an amazing parent
you are amazing parents, just wanted you to know.
Aw thanks you guys, we really try. ❤
colleen just saying "man or woman" & her reaction (it wasnt rly a reaction) was so chill & wholesome i love it
Ah loved “he who shall not be named” 😂 Voldemort Voldemort oh voldy Voldemort 😂
Thought that too 😂
I wish my coming out story was uneventful. I wish everyone’s coming out experience was like Rachel’s.
Agreed. This was so therapeutic to watch. I grew up LDS and was outed in a very traumatic way when I was 16. I'm 24 now and still working throw the trauma of my "coming out" experience.
Sorry people kept telling you you’re gay when you identified as straight and that they said the knew because that is so invalidating and rude, and you’re aloud to feel upset about that. Anyway, I’m excited with you on this new discovery!! I’m glad you’re happy and feel free :)
exactly! i hate that people think it's ok to do that
The normalcy of Rachel's whole attitude to this and the story itself should be an inspiration to the world
I realized I was bisexual in middle school. I didn't tell anyone until high school and that was only friends. In my early 20s I told my parents. My dad even asked me why I hadn't told him earlier. I'm happy you have such a supportive group of family and friends.
don't worry Rachel, tik tok made us all realize we were gay...
I literally found out I have symptoms of ADHD thanks to tiktok. Hoping to get diagnosed once my therapist has an opening
Legit hahahaha
Or bi
Sorry but I f ing do not like gay people
But when I saw this I feel nothing wrong about being gay or having a gay friend
Call me out much 😂
SO glad we’re FINALLY getting to a point where people are much more accepting!! This is how it should be. How great is it that she has so many people in her life that just want her to be HAPPY!! The very best to you on the next chapter! Your going to be the best gay aunt EVER!! 💗
“So whatcha gonna do bout it”
“I dunno, be gay” I’m literally crying so hard
I have never clicked on anything so fast in my whole entire life 😂
Same
Same, I saw the notification and stopped immediately to watch it.
Same lol
I thought I was gonna get Rick rolled
I had to go get my headphones haha
i was practicing my clarinet but who needs a clarinet when rachel made a coming out story!?!
Oooo I play clarinet
lmaooo ikr
I also play clarinet!
@Mattie Jackson yay all my fellow band peeps!
@@alexiss1457 it’s so funnnnn!!
This is literally the greatest coming out story. I live your positivity.
I'm just glad that people are experiencing more casual 'coming outs' like this, it's the way things should be! Just an open understanding that people aren't configured to be interested in what is stereotypically expected!
Colleen talked about how their conversation was a bit different than how Rachel told it. Apparently, Colleen was saying "whomever you date next... Man or woman..." & Rachel interrupted and said "woman". Then colleen said, "love it." Colleen did not put Rachel on the spot and never assumed anything. She waited for Rachel to tell her. Just for clarification.
@Tha Whisperer cool, no one cares

@@thewriter2634 shut......up
@@thewriter2634 I think if you are watching this, you’re gay lmaooooo
As a straight person, I always wondered when people said stuff like “ we been knew” to people who came out if it was invalidating to hear that. Glad to know that it is true and I’m not crazy
I love your profile pic :)
I'll never forget my best guy friend coming out in high school. He told me it was ok if I didn't want to be his friend and then told me he was gay. I remember feeling horrible that he would ever think that and vowed that I would never ever give that impression on someone ever again. It taught me a lot about myself as a person and actually made me stronger christian because it was another lesson in why God wants me as a christian to love everyone. ❤️
I love how people take months or maybe years and Rachel found out threw tiktok
I found out through a tv show and tik tok just confirmed it for me 😂
"and because you guys are really nosy"
felt that
Rachel’s gay. Cool. Let’s ask the important question: How did you start dating a new person during a PANDEMIC? Dating’s HARD.
felt this some much but idk i go the same school as my gf so it was kinda easy
i did, but i’m in a long distance relationship so
Yes! I swear I don’t know how to date.
@@mairinr1120 maybe her and her date got tested and were negative and decided to see each other
@Tha Whisperer This is such a bad faith argument. It's bad, and you should feel bad for making it.
You say your coming out wasn’t exciting, but to me it is! It’s exciting that we’re finally living in a time where someone coming out doesn’t have to be a big deal or “thing”. The more boring a coming out story is, the more excited I get.
I think le$bean tiktok made everyone realize they were gay🤪
Amen!
Yup.
@Carolina Resendes Moura literally a tiktok thing saying “ le dollar bean”
Yea
@Carolina Resendes Moura tiktok lesbians say lesbian as "le dolla bean"
I would like to say, Rachel was how I figured out I was gay like 3 years ago. I looked at her, I looked at Zac Efron, and I was like “huh, I think I’m bi”
i’m straight, but this made me cry only because I know this story is probably belong so many out there be comfortable with themselves🥺love you rachel💝
Such goals. I wish for a world where every coming out story is like this. I'm so happy for you!
I’m so confused about my sexuality like there’s a part of me that’s like “I’m definitely straight” but there’s another part of me that’s like “but girls...” I’ve been feeling this way for such a long time (like 3ish years) and I just have no clue at this point
im kinda like that. i know for sure that im attracted to girls (ignored that little detail since childhood) but i keep telling my mom im either bi or pan because i dont know if i really like guys.
Wishing both of y’all love and support as you explore! Take all the time you need and hopefully you can find joy amidst some of the confusion
@@blackrose5484 I haven’t even told my mum that I might identify as bi or pan as far as she’s aware I’m straight same with everyone I know they all think I’m straight which is fair enough because I don’t even know what I identify as myself lol

@@thewriter2634 it may just be me, but this comment kind of made no sense to me. Your opinions are your opinions, but it didn’t seem to make sense, and it also doesn’t relate at all to the original comment. I’m just a little confused about the relevance of this

Next thing everyone will bug Rachel about, how she met girlfriend LOL

Didn't she explain before that they met at a dog training thing?
Omgggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggg yasssssssssssssssssssssss
@@tatanka5791 oh! Maybe she did and I just missed it! Like, how I missed how she had a gf til Colleen tweeted about her being discriminated against for being gay.
I love how Rachel talks to her camera like a person and films herself talking to her dogs like a queen 👑
I'm happy to hear everyone was so non-judgmental and accepting! One of my best friends was (no longer with us😢) DISOWNED by his super religious family. I LOVE hearing positive coming out stories ❤
If boring means Rachel dying because of the amount of times she laughed so hard then this is the definition of this video lol 🤣🤣🤣🤣
This is the most Rachel and Ballinger coming out story and I live for it.
My bff.... "Im gay"
Me- " cool, I've known since the 7th grade"
Her- "why didn't you tell me?"
😂😂
Fr, same thing happened to me and I wish she would've said something and saved me the anxiety of having to come out to her.
People trying to rush someone to come out is literally the most relatable statement! People kept trying to force me to come out in school. Which for sure impacted on me coming out and accepting myself in my own time.
“What are you going to do”
“I don’t know. Just be gay”
🤣🤣 I have been dying from this lol
"SCREW YOU IM MORE STRAIGHT NOW" I'm dead literally rolling 🤣
rachel trying to justify that she doesnt have some "interesting, deep and dark emotional story" as if this isn't the way coming outs SHOULD be.
any coming out story is good the fact the interesting ones are where people are unaccepting id rather only have boring coming out stories
OKAY the fact she mentioned Rachel Wentling my heart is so happy
I guess I knew the Ballinger’s were laid back, but wow what a great way to be supportive they just knew Rachel doesn’t like things to be a big deal. I’m blown away by how great her family and friends were about it. Now she has to deal with everyone wanting to meet the girlfriend.
it’s so nice to hear stories like this. As someone who doesn’t ever want a dramatic coming out story, I love this. My coming out (to a few friends) was literally a post on my snapchat story after talking to my friends through questioning. It just wasn’t a big deal. And I plan for my coming out to my family to be ‘hello this is my girlfriend/wife’
Um agree with all the sentiment
The "wife" caught me off guard
Like I'd hope your family would be invited to your wedding or at least know you're involved with someone before they find out you're married 😅
It’s ok I came out at 20 my mum still loved me but didn’t want anyone knowing and cried. I’m now 28 and engaged to a 60 year old women who I love with all my heart and my mum is fine about everything. Love you Rachel I’m so glad you found yourself it’s the best. 😘😘
Rachel’s uncomfortable laughter is making me uncomfortable.
I hope she can live her life without needing to explain all her feelings. Especially if she isn’t comfortable doing so.
Exactly! Why did this feel uncomfortable? The manic rambling and explaining.
this comment seems super unproductive. I think she's living her life exactly how she wants to I mean like she said she's still her nothing changed she has always just been her authentic self with or without coming out. I don't think she would have posted it if she was uncomfortable announcing it to people. I feel like I can understand where your coming from but I really don't think that was the intended vibe for the video people were just asking for a story time so she made one!!
I don’t see it as her being uncomfortable at all. I think she’s just giddy and happy, the way everyone is when they are in a new relationship or discover anything about themself
@@abbyolivia which you just did as well🤣 Her life is social media, if she can’t handle the comments......
@@edenthompson2011 In what way should it have been “ productive “? These comments are merely observations. I’d think someone with a RUclips channel should be able to deal w comments without needing them to be “ productive “
I never "came out". I was having a conversation with my mom about sexuality and being bisexual and shes like yea I know you are and I was just like yep cool lol. And telling my grandma, she was just like ok that's cool.
I want that

You’re right it didn’t.
i’m currently in the closet and am planning on coming out to friends during pride month. my friends are quite accepting. however: my family is extremely homophobic/transphobic and every time they say something bad about lesbians i get a little hurt because they’re basically downtalking me
slight update: just came out to one of my friends who is also a lesbian and she was incredibly sweet and is now making me stickers for my laptop that are like subtly gay
hey I get that don't feel pressured to come out to them. in fact you don't owe them anything so if it doesn't make you comfortable telling them then don't. trust me im going through the same thing rn. my parents dont need to know and if you're not comfortable don't tell yours. just come out to your friends ❤
Good luck to both of you!
You might actually help your family to be more accepting of others because I bet your family will love you know matter what. You might teach them a lesson about acceptance!
@@lizanapoli5629 i appreciate your optimism but i seriously doubt that. my brother *possibly* but def not my parents. my parents are very set in their ways. if they’re homophobic now they’re always going to be
Hey, you don't owe your family anything. Don't worry about coming out to them. I get that it hurts, its hurts me when my family down talks gay people even though they know I'm gay. I'm here for you if you need me, much love 💛💛
I've watched this video a few times and it makes me teary and gives me chills every time. I wish coming out was as ordinary for everyone as it was for you! Everyone should be as accepting as the Ballingers 💗
I’m just impressed Rachel met girlfriend during a pandemic. 💕
I love how natural it was for you to tell your friends and family!! That's how it should be! I hope that more people in the world can have a similar experience filled with love!
I feel like I relate a little to this story, cause when I realized I was bisexual, I told my dad and my brother when it just came up in conversation, and they were just like "okay cool, anyways" like it wasn't that big of a deal and I'm happy that I didn't lose people to that fact
I love you Rachel. I'm so happy that you were not worried about being pushed away and that you are surrounded by people that love you for you. This makes me so hopeful for future people that come out that they will be surrounded with love and acceptance as they should be.
rachel didn’t come out...... she was just giving us info😂😂
I'm bisexual and I feel the same way, I don't want it to be a big thing. Sadly the world has not caught up and we LGBTQ+ people still have to come out.
I’m so happy for you. It’s comforting to know that some people have good experiences. A lot of our stories aren’t as perfect as yours but it’s genuinely heart warming to see you being so accepted and loved. Thank you for such amazing content💗
Rachel:”hey i’m breaking up with you”
person who shall not be named:”No
"Hey, I'm gay." "Mkay, cool. What are you gonna do about it?" "I dunno. Just be gay."
Best thing I've heard all day. XD
I thought it was always common knowledge that she was not straight 😭😭😭 I had a vibe from her from long ago
Same here! I didn't know she was even with a man.
@@GreenEnvy. I just kinda thought she would be bi since she was with a man yk?
I've just come out recently as well and I've really enjoyed kind of having you as a role model. It's kind of felt like I'm not going through it alone... :)
my hope is that everyone is gonna have this type of "coming out" situation in the future
I love how Colleen just said ‘man or woman’ it is something so small but something so comforting
“screw u no IM MORE STRAIGHT NOW” favorite line everrrr
My mom was just in my room and she was telling me how I needed to straighten up things. (Like my blinds were crooked, the bed spread was wrinkled, etc) and she said “nothing in this room is straight” so I added “including me.”
We knew but its also not our place to tell others! Love this story it’s so just is. It’s completely you! Chill. No drama. No big todo. Just it is what is. Thank you for sharing your story. I have always known I was bisexual but just recently accepted myself.
“What are you gonna do about it?” “Idk just be gay” “cool!” ❤️
“does she play board games?”
“yea”
“dope:)”
“ TikTok made me gayer” me too
