    Hey guys!

    I was just showering and I kind of thought of coming out to everyone on facebook. While showering I was thinking of what things to say, and I kind of have everything in place. After coming out to my mom not to long ago I really don't mind what others think of me, the most important person already knows and she has accepted me and still loves me, so I really don't have anything to lose.

    Wish me luck guys :slight_smile:

    My Spanish is very very rusty and basically that of a 4 year old, but I got the idea... Congrats on being brave...

    That's a good message. Pretty much explains everything that should be said, though I hope no one would really remove you from their friend's list for having the courage to come out. Hope you got good reactions.

    Thanks RainbowGreen!! I hope so too, it's kind of harsh. I'm grateful that all of the reactions have been positives, which is a great sign.

    Derivative don't worry! Spanish is not an easy language to begin with, so no worries. Thanks you for the support and nice words.

    That is awesome. I put it in Google translate, so I was able to the most of it. Congrats, you are a lot braver than I am

    Thanks a lot Phoenix! I don't feel brave, I just didn't mind what others thought because those important to me already knew and responded well. I guess I did it because I hate being insincere towards those I consider friends.

    I wouldn't do it but if you aren't really bothered about the initial reaction and don't really care what anyone thinks then sure, I don't see a problem with it... If you are just doing it because you think you have to and don't really want to then don't do it at all, just tell the people closest to you, otherwise go ahead!
