Absolutely! Coming out is an entirely personal decision and no one can tell you when you should or should not. If you feel that coming out is not safe or healthy for you right now (compromises your housing, risks your physical safety, etc.) then by all means wait for a better time. It does not make you any less of a person. Put yourself and your wellbeing first.

Of course, you have to be ready. If you are not ready to come out then don't pressure yourself. But also remember that most people are more supportive than you think they are !

It's perfectly okay! You should only come out when you feel you are ready and when you personally want to take that first step to living authentically.

Definitely. It's OK to take your time. Trust yourself enough to know when you're ready. Don't force yourself! :)

Your sexuality is your business. While you definitely shouldn't be afraid of it, you certainly hold the right to keep it yourself. You are the boss of YOU!

Of course it is. Your orientation/gender is a very personal thing and it's your decision to share it when and if you want to.

Of course it is! You shouldn't force yourself to come out if its not something you're ready for. It's a good idea to move at you're own pace. Get more comfortable with the idea small steps at a time :)

I suggest that you wait a bit, do it when you feel the most comfortable and safe. Take your time, friend, no need to rush it.

It is completely ok to not want to come out at a certain time. Coming out is a big step in life that some are not ready for. :)

Of course! It's perfectly fine if you don't feel ready, or just don't want to come out at the moment!
