Who was the first to know about your sexuality?
-
my brother I loved, he is the only one living person who knows my sexual orientation. I also tell my father at his funeral. I don’t have gay friends here, but my brother have two gay friends two doctors, but they don’t know me.

No one..there is no rule that you should really come out as gay out and out

I agree with you assuming that the reason you may choose not to come out is purely & truly because you could care less if people knew.
That aside, I think the first person to know was a girl-friend I had in middle school, 6th grade I think.

My (straight) female friend was the first to know, back in 8th grade. Though, I told her that I was bisexual because I was in denial. 'Told her that it was a 60% to 40% ratio (boys to girls) and then I eventually came out to her and a few other female friends as gay.

My female friends here as well
-
I was basically forced to come out to my mom because I needed her to take me to my HIV appts… It was really rough , then she made me tell my dad - but they eventually just accepted me for who i am
-
A female friend. At first I told her as a joke to see her reaction. But found out she is cool. she rather enjoyed listening to my gay life when I came out to her. ;D ;D

First I started opening a anonymous account on Twitter. There I made a lots of friends who understood me. I'm from a little town in Andalusia (Spain) so the option of comming out so young was out of question. In the university I also made friends who know I'm gay, people on university are more open-minded (still there was some assholes, but only a few). The only person I have came out is my best friend (and after a few weeks he came out on me telling me he was bi LOL).

The first time I said it to someone (besides myself) was to a female coworker with whom I've had sex a few times. We were getting closer and when things started to get into romance I felt like I should just tell her that I'm more interested in man than in woman. I was very afraid of her reaction but I had nobody else with intimacy enough to tell this. She took it kinda of well, was supportive and didn't tell anyone about it (that I know of), but we got distant and I could see a bit of dissapointment in her. Life moved on anyway and I felt relieved to have told it to someone.

Well first my parents , family, then later friends .
-
a classmate I was in love with
-
it depends on the person. if the person really feels he had to tell someone to relieve something then go for it
-
A couple of girl friends in high school.

My boss, he put two and two together when a co-worker said I "only go on lunch to talk to a guy in the restaurant across the street".
-
when i was a teenager i had a female best friend that simply figured it out and gave hints about it so one day i felt relaxed enough to tell her.
-
My brother. I'm 34 and told him a few months ago.
