    First I want to start by saying thank you to everyone on EC. I made my account on EC at the start of this year, and I want the staff of EC to know that this forum has meant so much to me. With the acceptance and understanding I found here I've slowly become more confident. Since I joined, I have now come out to more than six friends, and my entire dads side of the family. Before EC I had thought I would pretend to be straight for the rest of my life, cause I was naive about a lot of things. Thank you for everything guys, I'm bolder than ever.

    Tonight, I plan to come out to all my friends at a movie thing we're having tonight. I'm not even that nervous, I'm actually super excited to get it all off my chest.

    So, wish me luck, and I will let you guys know how it goes!

    Holy. Shit. Where the hell do I start?? I had told 3 of my friends earlier today and they were like you should tell everyone tonight!! I was like only if you guys come. Well, only one of them could make it (the other 2 were brother and sister and they ended up coming later) So we had just finished eating tacos and we all went up into E's room (did I mention I found out that the guys house we were all at is gay too? lol craziness) but as we went in his room, me and 5 others, I shut the door, and just bluntly told them (I REALLY wanted to wait for my friend A to get there but she was really late). They were all like whatever your kidding (NO ONE ever expects it) Finally I convinced them and E was like oh I so knew and my 4 girlfriends rushed over and were OMG!!! They were HAPPY about it LOL. Then two more of my friends got there and lol I had one sit on my lap and I was like "Honey, I'm gay" lol it was just ridiculously hilarious. Then the 2 I had told showed up and we all had this like deep lets-talk-about-life conversation lol. So overall it was GREAT! Everyone was accepting and they all want to go shopping now (of course).

    But I found out A, one of my close friends, started crying when I got out of the car cause she had a major crush on me (I knew this) I felt bad but I know she'll eventually get over it.

    So yeah, totally amazing.

    It's true, once I told a few of my friends (that are girls) that I'm gay, they're all like "OMG I have a gay best friend now!! YESSS!".
    Great job man, that story truly put a big smile on my face!
