My whole entire life I have been trying to convince myself that I wasn't gay and that it was just a phase. Then I had my first kiss with another guy and I instantly knew that I was for sure gay, the feeling that ran throughout my body was like nothing I have ever felt before. I watched that show on logo, that 5 gays one girl and they had the question, are you glad your gay, or something along those lines. I remember seeing the reaction on all the guys and I'm pretty sure they all went on about how they were soo happy that they were gay and I just didn't understand it. I have now reached a point in my life where I'm just realizing that being gay isn't a curse. I'm glad I'm gay, I can say that with confidence that I truly am happy to be gay. I'm realizing that I'm not the only different person in the world and that most people go through the same shit that I'm going through being gay. To have a large base of similar people to talk about being gay has only made my life better ands helped me come to terms with my sexuality People don't accept me then fuck them, I am a good person, I'm gay and I have never been so proud to be gay! The amount that I have cried over this issue is amazing, but I'm not going to cry any more. Like Dave Matthews said, "I am the proudest monkey!!!" (!)
Its who I am, and I shouldn't be ashamed of it or feel like lesser of a person. I like men instead of women, it shouldnt be an issue for anyone who evaluates me as a person. I'm a really nice guy and I happen to be gay, so what!
Thanks everyone. I feel like I need to give hugs back (*hug*) lol this website has definitely made this easier on me
This sounds just like me! Except for the gay kiss part :icon_sad: It took me a long time to get here but I'm finally ok with being gay. And yeah this website has helped a lot even for the short time I've been here. Now I just need to tell everyone and find someone to kiss :icon_bigg
You know what? I'm not quite at this point yet, but this post has just got me a lot closer to it. Thank you, and congrats (*hug*)
The only bad thing about being gay is that there are A. Less possible mates/spouses and B. People sometimes give you crap for it. That being said B is changing and in 10-20 years people will be ashamed of acting the way they did towards gay people.
@given to fly... I'm really glad that this thread helped you, even if it was just a little bit, if what I have to say can help people, then I don't want to stop talking.. We are all helping each other here! @Sacha....I'd agree with those two points but I think they are both evolving together..once its more accepted, being gay, then all those hater will come out as gay and we'll have less haters and more gay guys for me to befriend lol
Lovely post it sort of makes you feel good don't it. took me a couple of months after coming out to get to the happy point . thanks for sharing your story .
