What are peoples views on expressing their sexuality to new people?
I came out in a subtle way. I never really felt it was anyones business but some close friends were told. I talk about it, sometimes, but to be honest I hate imposing my personal life on people. And I always felt that I shouldn't expose it too much because I dont want my orientation to be a dominating part of my personality.
I am mainly friends with guys, and most my big 'entourage' (as we call ourselves, heh) know, and we laugh about it. They've even thrown a couple curious guys my way.
But I moved to London to start a new job, and theres a big social group of us. A similar age, you know, kinda studenty, but professionals.
I used to hate people speculating about my sexuality before I was comfortable with it myself. But similarly I don't want to exclaim my sexuality to people I'm not hugely friendly with yet. I think it could be intimidating.
What do other people do? It's not causing me any grief or worry, I'm just curious about how other people deal with it.
