Default I'm Through with my out list!!

I'm finally through with my "list" of people that I needed to tell. The last couple had already heard (word gets around).
I'm excited!!! Most were fairly neutral, surprising how conservative everyone around here is. A few were awesome, a few were nightmares, most were somewhere in between.

You guys helped me get through it!!! I thank you.

Now that you're completely out, I hope your future is much more enjoyable and free than the times behind you.

That is great news, Noah! Congrats. I am trying to work with all of the advice on this forum (you, Martin, and countless others) to put myself in the same position you are. Enjoy this new phase of life!

Congratulations! It's got to be the most uplifting feeling to be completely out and not have to feel yourself denying it... I am just about there, just a handful left to tell.

That's fantastic!

I'm most of the way through my "list" but I think I'll wait till I finish year 13 before I tell the rest, in case the response is uhhhhh unfavourable? Cos I would see them everyday and it would not be good

Now my only worry is my parents not letting me talk about it or anything....lol you should have seen the look I got when I sang "It's raining men" (Don't ask)

Btw, being out is an awesome feeling. I recommend it to everyone!

I would say your welcome but I actually didn't help at all.

So I'll just say congrats!

TILLYKKE!
