Hi guys, so, in the past fortnight, I've told five friends (everyone's been fine with it), and I feel somewhat happy about it. But I feel really amazed at how, without really expecting to, I'm out to my closest 7 friends, whom I came out to almost compulsively, feel somewhat comfortable talking about being gay (still in hushed tones in quiet corners), and I wondered; did anyone else come out way faster than they expected too?
I'd just like to say congrats that all of your friends have been very accepting! I was outed by some girl at my school who talked to one of my friends and he let it slip. I'm not mad at him, but for a day or so I felt super stressed, but then I realized that there was no turning back and came out to my entire school. It was probably one of the tougher things I have had to do in my life, but it has been so rewarding, seeing how many accepting people I'm surrounded by. So I did come out faster than I had expected or wanted to, but I wouldn't go back and change that because of how well the reception was. Good luck to you in the future as well
