Coming out as bi

Post Body

I'm 34 guy that has always been in hetero relationships and even have 4 kiddos. I've always had attraction to both men and women. I also have occasional attraction to TG. Growing up in ND, the people around me didn't like and always made fun of the LGTQ community. That imprinted on me and I was the same until my late 20s. My upbringing caused me to do the same thing. That in order to be a man I had to only find women attractive and to only date women. That I was a fggt (etc, etc, etc) if I didn't. Probably a common story in these threads. But at the same time I had those thoughts and urges to both men and women. I would try to suppress them and live up to those hateful expectations. I don't really have any communication or connection to them anymore. I met my F fiance back in 2015 and found out that she was bi. I moved to MN shortly after meeting her. She saw through me and my internal struggle with my sexuality. She slowly peeled apart the layers and has helped free my mind. To fully accept those who are different because everyone faces struggles and discrimination. I am free now to open up to her on the subject. She is my rock πŸͺ¨, my world 🌎, my other half ❀️.

Now to the coming out part... We live in MN and plan to attend Pride Minneapolis in June. I would like to come out publicly then if that doesn't sound too cringy. I am struggling on how to go about it. If anyone else has had this struggle and anxiety, then I would love some ideas. Thank you everyone!
