I just noticed today that last Christmas, Christmas 2011 I was straight. Or atleast I thought I was. I joined EC January 2012 and since then have comed to terms with being gay and ive even told my closest friends. I was a completly different person last Christmas. So here post how youve changed from 2011 to 2012 and how u want to change by Christmas of 2013 2011- didn't know I was gay and the little doubts I had I thought I could pray away 2012- accept that I'm gay and told my closest friends 2013- be completly out at school...and having a bf would be nice (let's be optimistic)
December 2011 -- December 2012 Spent the year coming out to myself and accepting that I am gay. December 2012 -- Joined Empty Closets and made the first contact with the LGBTQ community at my university. December 2013 -- I'd like to be completely out (we'll see how it goes).
December 2011 ~ hating the world, hating my closet, feeling hopeless December 2012 ~ been dating a guy for 3 months and just signed the lease for my apt December 2013 ~ living with the bf, finally happy, preparing to tell my mother
2011 - questioning why i didn't have the guts to come out. Having constant mind battles of religion vs sexual orientation 2012 - came out to a bunch of people and have worked through most of said issues 2013 - Have a BF
2011 - Not sure why I liked boys... kind of frightened. 2012 - Slowly accepting myself. Came out to three friends in one semester. 2013 - Come out to parents...
2011 - thought i was bisexual 2012 - was sure that i am gay, wanted to come out 2013 - come out to best friend, Have a boyfriend
Dec 2011 - I had come out to my friends, I was okay with my sexuality. Dec 2012 - Still there, although I'm even more comfortable with myself now. Dec 2013 - I'd like to have moved out by then, not necessarily come out to my parents yet though.
Dec 2011 - Frightened - just got over a suicide attempt - deep in denial Dec 2012 - Been out for 5 months - happy to finally realise who I am after 31 years Dec 2013 - My first Crimbo in my own place - with a bf perhaps
Dec 2011- Being angry and lonely Dec 2012- Came out to most my immediate family and my closest friends Dec 2013- Have a nice bf and tell the rest of my family and friends
2011- I was still in major denial. 2012 - comfortable with my sexuality 2013- hopefully going to be out to everyone ( a boyfriend couldn't hurt too)
2011-Acting like I was a straight guy, knowing I was gay. 2012-Out as gay to everyone. 2013-Boyfriend hopefully!
