At 15 to my parents. My friends always knew, i was always open with them.

I did it on my own but my family was suspicious.

I had a boyfriend at the time that everyone thought was just a "friend" but we were always together and were a bit friendlier than just friends xP we hated lying about our relationship so we came out to our parents at the time time, together.

It went really well with his parents, not so much with mine but oh well. You can't make everyone happy.
