I'm not sure how I'd react to someone asking me point blank; it would seem strange. But broadly speaking, I'm trying to get myself into the habit of being generally open about my sexuality; not broadcasting it, just being open and honest about it. In my experience, I've had a much harder time coming out to a friend I've known for quite a long time, than having them know almost straight away. Thankfully, pretty much all my friends have been fine with it, but if I'm to meet new friends in the future, it'll be much easier if they know fairly early on, so that I don't instead spend ages building a friendship with them only to find out months down the line that they're not okay with homosexuality.
