    Is it wise to come out to the guy you love at the end of the school year? I'm not going to do it, but it's a thought. I'm graduating this year and wondered about coming out to my crush, who's a junior, a good idea. Just a thought

    It's a fun thought isn't it. Telling the truth and then clearing out. Gives you a "nothing to lose" kind of feeling doesn't it.

    There's no absolute right way or time to come out to someone. It's different for everyone.
    I have a friend who came out to his Dad in a Christmas card.

    It's understandable if you want to come out just before you leave so that you don't have to deal with the repercussions if it goes sour or if they need time to process the information.
    I myself came out to most of my family and friends and then 6 months later left the country and went travelling for 2 years. I'm not suggesting you do that, but giving people space can help.

    Peace be with you.

    That would be cool but what if he likes you and you have to leave

    How far away are you likely to go when you leave?
    If you both really want to see each other, I'm sure you can find the time. You just wont see each other every single day that's all (which is sometimes a good thing).
