Do you tell new friends your gay right away or wait?
-
you dont necessarily have to tell them, just drop hints and they'll get it nowadays
-
You can never really know what another person is thinking. If they cannot accept you for who you are then they are hardly your friends. I wouldn't do it because I don't want my individual identity to be lost inside a label.
-
I think its best to wait because you don't really know the person really well
-
if i don't see any specific reason to tell it i won't, if they ask i'll answer.
in my book it's a bit like religion or vegans, no need to shove it into people's face, no need to hide it
-
I wait until the ask.
-
Don't ask, don't tell. Simple.
-
I will definitely not tell any str8 friends. Few people accept that and I may receive unwanted criticism.
-
I don't really have too many straight friends.
-
My core group of close friends (most of whom are straight) all know and we are fine. I don't hide it from new friends, but I also don't wave it in their faces. If it comes up then I answer them honestly and if they have a problem with it then I know they aren't really my friend.

I don't have enough social skills to meet new friends frequently, at least not face-to-face friends. For those that I know from some time ago, I only told to a few of them bc I thought it was important to feeling more conformable being around with their company. I also came up to one guy that I really liked in high school, and he stopped talking to me. At least he wasn't a bully… Nowadays I only told it right away to virtual people that live far far away. I don't mind to do it bc it's part of my work (I broadcast in Chaturbate).

I rarely ever walk up to someone and say, "Hi I'm Dag and I'm queer." But I also do not censor myself. If I'm in a car with someone and I see someone attractive I will say, "Ooooo, he's cute." If a co-worker asks which actress I think is hot, I will tell them Russell Tovey.
Most new people assume I'm straight. But I've almost never told anyone I was queer. Almost no-one has ever asked ME if I was queer. But everyone ends up knowing in the end.
But when someone is being homophobic, I have looked people in the eye and told them that I like getting fucked in the ass.
