Not scared anymore!

    I was so scared that if everyone found out I was gay that everyone would leave me. I've only told two people in my life uup until today. I just told my sister and another friend. It was the best feeling ever. My sister was ok with it and my friend said to me " its better to be gay then ashamed of who you are". She told me she hates people who are afraid to be themselves. We talk for a long time.

    With all the support from EC, my dearest friends, and my awesome sister I have finally overcomed the fear of telling people who I really am. It's finally time to get real.

    I have found my shelter from the storm in everyone here and my friends/family. Thank you everyone.

    Good for you! It gets easier with each person you tell.

    I'm going to borrow that quote from your friend, I love it.
