We were both 19 at the time and we were both sophomores in college. She was a PT student and I was in nursing school. We went to the same High School and decided to room together. She was a petite 4’11” Filipino girl and I am 5’3″ and white. The summer before college I met up with a girl on Tumblr and decided to explore my bi-curiosity and I let her eat me out. I identified as bi from there on out.
I started dating this guy Freshman Year of college and my roommate was in a three year relationship with her boyfriend. Then one day in like September of our Sophomore years she came into the room crying. She was in tears because she said she had a crush on this girl in her bio lab and she always thought she was straight. She said her parents (strict Catholics) would throw her out if they knew she had a crush on a girl as they hated gay people. She said she’s never been this confused before. That’s when I came out to her and told her it’s completely okay to question your sexuality and even to be bi like me. I wiped her tears away and we hugged. She said thank you and left the room before giving me a peck on the cheek.
