A Team USA ice dancer has come out as bisexual in a video, in which she compared life in closet to the everlasting panic attack. Karina revealed that now she is in same-sex relationships and her girlfriend wad also shown on the coming out video. She is incredibly grateful to her girlfriend Aleena for being there for her through all this tough period of her life and loving her more than anything, even though it was not allowed to show this love – her girlfriend was out, but had to hide relationships with Karina because she was in closet.“There’s no pretty way to say that I’ve made myself sick living my life this afraid. I’ve spent the past year as two different people, bags under each of their eyes for different reasons. Neither side of the pillow feels safe. I grow more exhausted every day. I am itching to shed my skin. I have long outgrown the cocoon… Today I am waking with the biggest yawn, stretching my limbs and saying, ‘I’m Karina, it’s nice to meet you after so long,’” Manta says in the video.
