    Hey, :grin:

    I am planning to come out to my friends and not so close friends on facebook.
    All the important people in my life know, family, best friend, etc.
    I am not sure how to do it. I was thinking something but I want an opinion before I make a fool out of myself. :slight_smile:
    I was thinking of posting this picture:

    (I hope this link works :wink: )
    Let me know what you think!

    Thanks

    They may suspect someone has hacked your account or just find it funny to post... it would be more credible if they already suspect your gay.

    Even if that's the case, coming out isn't about convincing people it's just about letting them know. If they don't believe it, that's really not OP's problem :slight_smile:

    I am out.
    I posted the picture.
    And people responded better than expected :slight_smile:
    First I freaked out. I couldn't believe I did it, but now..
    I'm so happy I did it!
