Nancy is a junior majoring in business. During spring semester of her sophomore year, she began attending meetings of the local gay, lesbian, bisexual, and transgender student group, primarily because she was feeling lonely and wanted talk further about her sexual feelings. Since high school, she had been quite certain that she was a lesbian, but had been reluctant to come out or to talk with anyone else about it. She had dated boys in high school, thinking that maybe she would become more interested, but she did not. Since coming to college, she had avoided the social scene for the most part. At one of the meetings in the spring, she met a young woman from the community, and they talked alone a few times.

She has always felt close enough to them to want their communication to be open and without secrecy. On the other hand, she wants to make certain that their reaction to her brother's sexuality would not affect her approach to disclosing her sexuality with them. Jill continues to be a strong source of support for her as she tries to make a decision
