    So, last night I literally had a nightmare about coming out. It was really terrible. In the dream, I told one of my best friends that I am gay (I'm planning on telling her IRL soon which is probably why I had the dream). I'm fairly certain she'll react very positive, but in the dream she just went ape-shit crazy and outed me to like everyone, even my really homophobic friends. It was at that point I woke up. I think this is a sign I need to get this off my chest haha

    hmm, I did this "haha" too. But then my bad dream about coming out came true to the last bit.

    What about mentioning some LBGT news to see how she will react? Or telling her that you have this good friend, how happens to be gay, and he...

    But if you already tried that know what she thinks about it, go for it. Good luck :slight_smile:

    Hi there! I wouldn't really worry about having had the dream. You already know that your friend would react well and most likely be supportive. I'm sure your coming out will go well. :slight_smile:
