Your girlfriend may react well or not, but it's important that you don't hide who you are from her. I told ratbastid in college when we were still dating that I'm bisexual. He knew this about me when we got married, and was thus prepared when it became an "issue" for me ten years later. If I had just sprung it on him now I can't imagine what kind of trouble we'd have.

As for telling other people, I've really only told close friends, my sister, and my mom. They've all been incredibly supportive and positive, but I pretty much expected that. People I don't know how they'd react, I don't tell. I only tell people I trust with everything and need to talk to about the things that are issues in my life.
