Well i cam out a few weeks ago. I told a teacher at my school who's helped me through personal problems this year. Though I didn't see him with the intention of just telling someone 'i'm gay' it was more 'i think i'm gay....now what?' sort of thing.
I also chose him as i'd heard he was gay...turned out he is so he completely understands.
Well this probably sounds boring but i want to write down how i came out so i figured why not on here.
well I saw Mr Smith a few weeks before I spoke to him and we arranged a meeting, he didnn't know what I wanted to discuss though.
I got to school (i'd left as my exams had finished) and he told me his office was open so i sate down and watied a few minutes for him to get there adn while he finished something on his laptop. then he sat down opposite me.
He suggested what we talk about, as i mentioned 6th form while he was working. But I told him there was something else. At this point I had a pit in my stomach. i had been visuallising how it would be and that made me dread it even more.
At first I struggled to say what was on my mind and went on about how I have enough things going on adn don't this making it worse. So after a few minutes I came out with "I'm gay or bi" He was relaxed about it. he got up an started looking for something, a small book. He encouraged me to keep talking as he was still listening. I told him how i was worried I wouldn't ever be able to tell my parents and how it confirms that i'm different.
He handed me a phone number and told me to carry on talking. so I did fro about 5 more minutes. On the whole he told me that people are more open about sexuality and because i know a guy my age is a gay that it'll be goodfor me to talk to him. Actually he seriously thinks i should talk to him. The main he said was I needed toa ccept it, I couldn't change it and that it isn't a problem.
As we left I was saying how i gambled to choose him, but Idve chose him anyway as i knew eh would understand. He then said to to me "But you know why I'm fine with it." i'd heard he was gay, but he just told me he was. Also I knew he was when he said that gay guys and gay grils don't really hang about together.
Well thats the ifrst time.
My mate guessed on teh phone when i told her what I was talking about it. Still I didn't have to say it as she asked me "Do you and Mr Smith have something in common?"
Then the next day I had to tell my psycologist, who i was seeing for teh first time and i phrased it as "i'm not straight"
